    I have an insinkerator 555ss installed it at my house 23 years ago, my wife uses it daily cooks all the time and it’s never even jammed once. Unbelievably good disposal for your home & worth every penny.

    Thanks! Great information. I found you just in time. I'm getting ready to replace our garbage disposal... for the third time in 18 years. I'm not going to put an offbrand unit in this time.
    Happy 4th of July!

    I just replaced a badger five with a three-quarter horsepower compact model. The thing I like about the upgraded models is inside is stainless so it won’t rust out as easily which is exactly what happened with my badger five. The new one is also nearly silent. Where as the badger was super noisy, so I’m happy. And yes, I can attest the only two times in my life where I’ve had a clog was with potato peels or pasta. I learned my lesson.

      Stainless inards are great but most disposal suffer motor or bearing failure when they die. Not rust.

    I noticed that there are two motor types you can get them with. There is permanent magnet or induction. Induction is usually going to last longer since they don't have brushes like the permanent magnet ones do. If you have any good power tools like compressors or table saws the better ones come with an induction motor. Induction motors are quieter or maybe even silent depending on the quality of them. If you have a swimming pool the motor on the filter is induction and rated to run for a long time too. Even if they overheat for some odd reason they may have a thermal fuse that temporarily disables it so it can cool back down and those fuses usually reset automatically but the same motors may even have a circuit breaker (that red button).

    I’ve never had a garbage disposal but am going to install one soon. Do they automatically turn on when it senses water, or do they all need a switch to turn on?

    Lol I no longer work in the field and spend most of my time trying to talk people out of flooding their house or creating s traps in the retail world… I also constantly try to steer people away from those Moens and other disposals. Get a 1/2 hp insinkerator, you’ll be just fine. Put your food in the garbage the disposal is for the left over rice and what not stuck to the plate

    What’s a disposal for if you can’t put stuff down them? Plate scraps only? Seems like a waste of money if that’s the case.

    Will soon be a thing of the past, like Central Vacuum. Plumbers never install garbage disposals in their OWN houses.
