    Thank you for showing the trick with the two screwdrivers. I looked up a bunch of other videos on how to change a garbage disposal and there was cut right before that moment and cut back right afterwards. That's exactly the moment I was looking for. Thank you.

    @virologiccomet7620 6 років тому

    Simple, straight to the point. Other video's had extra steps not needed and didn't show simple steps to get the job done (like you don't need to replace the whole Quick Lock mound and just use screwdrivers to loosen the disposer.) Very Helpful. Thxs

    @cinderblock2289 7 років тому

    Adam, thank you for this installation video. We remodeled our kitchen and of course, it came off easy enough, but putting the disposal back into a naked cabinet was daunting. Having a great look at the hookup was a saving grace as we noticed we were missing a section. Thank you once again for the friendly video.

    Thanks, Adam! I thought it looked too simple when I was taking the disposal out. I found your video, and I knew it needed to be done how I thought it would. This really helped give me the confidence to just go ahead and do it all myself. Thanks again!

    you just make my days Adam! I been trying to get my dishwasher to drain and just found the solution on your video. all i need to do is to knock off that piece of plastic inside the garbage disposal with a screw driver and a hammer for the drain hose to come in from the dishwasher.
    Thank you very much

    @ryugoeshuntingevilryu1188 4 роки тому +2

    Not sure if this makes a difference, @ the 4 min mark instructions usually show rubber O-ring gasket inserted in the discharge outlet first and then secure with the metal ring . You show O-ring around the pipe end .

    @janelarrick119 7 років тому

    Thanks Adam, you're awesome. This was a great video. I had a garbage disposal put in by my X and what did he forget to do but NOT knock out the plug where the dishwasher hose goes and I used my dishwasher and guess what, ended up with happening, water sitting in the bottom of my dishwasher and water leaking out the bottom of my dishwasher onto my hardwood floors. Not happy with him. I've learned to use UA-cam to find how to do your own handy woman things around the house. Not my thing, but under bad situations I'm learning. You were very clear with your video . Thanks for helping me! You should do all kinds of helpful DIY videos!.

    THANK YOU! Great video... I just watched the Home Depot video before this one and the info was so general and vague, I felt nervous about replacing my disposal. Then I saw yours... MUCH better. You answered all my questions in this video. I need to replace my faucet too. You bet I'll be subscribing and bookmarking your channel. Thanks for helping me save money!

    That is a nice technique to torque down onto the 3-screw mounting bracket... did not think of putting the screw driver in there to get leverage.

    Thanks for this. Why would you not tap out the knockout plug *before* attaching the new garburetor to its housing? That would avoid having to reach inside to fish it out from inside the garburetor, would it not?
