rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author badbonz0007 - I have been buying Kenmore products for several years. I have purchased refrigerators, tools, lawnmowers, just about anything that you could think of. I have bought with the name Kenmore on it. About a year a go, I had to replace our old garbage...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author shoehorny - In our old home, I first thought the garbage disposal system was a convenient appliance to have in the kitchen. No more nead to throw food scrapes into the trash, making a smelly mess - simply turn the disposal unit on, turn on the kitchen faucet, scrape...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author ddurbin1 - My house was purchased with a 1/3hp Badger put in by the builder. It lasted about 5 years. This unit was very loud. I replaced it with a 1/2hp Badger thinking it would be better. No, it was even louder, noisier and leaked fluid from the bottom right...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author tean94 - We recently moved into our new home in June of '07. The house was built in 1998. When we moved in we replaced all the appliances in the kitchen with black appliances. However, this left us with a big white sink in the middle of all the black. It...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author cupcaker - This disposer worked great... for the year that it did work. All of a sudden it started making a grinding noise which got worse for a few weeks. Then, it just stopped working altogether. I'm a bit disappointed, but who knows what went...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author pvreditor - We had a garbage disposal unit in our kitchen sink that was probably installed when the house was built in 1978. The disposal finally died and I bought an Insinkerator Badger 5 garbage disposal to replace it. I bought the Badger 5 at Home Depot for about...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author igglue - During my kitchen renovation, I thought about putting back the original unit that came with my kitchen (I think it was in-sinkerator), but after looking inside rusting and remembering I had to clear things out of it few times, I figured I'd invest in a...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author daniel-e - I don't agree with the owners who express this Badger 1 is not a good machine. I bought my first one 1n 1980 and it worked with no problems until 1993, even grinding chicken bones. On that date I replaced it with a new Badger 1 and it has lasted until...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Saxguy - We got this unit last fall after the previous unit wore out. That unit, also a GE batch feed unit, had ran well and lasted 11 years. Note: The epinions product title is wrong. Epinions titles this as “BF760 Continuous Feed”. The BF stands for...

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author zrunner - We bought this disposal from The Great Indoors when doing some remodeling a couple of years ago. We received a package deal offer saving us $50 on the disposal unit if we also purchased a new sink and faucet which we wanted to do anyway. The disposal...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author legiscritique - This disposer jammed all the time and only lasted 4 years. Will buy another brand even though there is a year left on the...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jlockley - This is an Inskinkerator in a Kenmore box. Contrary to other reviews, the wires do not need to be exposed (pull them in through the side opening. Use a flexible aluminum or poly conduit, or have a plumber do it right with a conduit). I have heard that...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author mmcphee - I was excited at the prospect of having a garbage disposal in our new house. I dreamed of rinsing dishes in the sink instead of scraping them over the garbage can. I imagined my self peeling carrots and potatoes over the sink and having my...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author pastordoctor - This one replaced the one that was installed in the house we bought. It lasted only 4 years and is now ready to be disposed of itself. Although it did a good job grinding up the food, I think 4 years is not enough life. I had to start tapping the bottom...

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author funkfactory - I bought this 7 months ago to replace a garbage disposal that I had for 7 years and it is now broken. It has taken 3-4 months for it to slow down and stop working efficiently. It is like the little engine that could when grinding simple things like...
