This Compactor lasted 18 months. Then, 3 parts just fell off. Poor, Poor Workmanship. Also, Best Buy told me on purchase this was covered by their Total Protection Plan for 24 months.NOT TRUE.Read the fine print-"Compactors not Covered."

My old Whirlpool trash compactor was 32 years old. It stopped working so I ordered a new one which was backordered for 9 months. My old one started up again but I kept the new one on order. I now have the new one and I must say, they don't make appliances like they used to. This one is much lighter weight and tinny and looks very fragile but is nice a sparkling clean so I will keep it. I just hope I have as much good luck with this one as I did the last one but I doubt it.

We have purchased two of these trash compactors over the years, one more recently in 2024. it worked great for a while but about the time the warranty ran out we could not do anything about the malfunction and these things are not cheap. I love using a compactor, however when you start the compactor and it is finishing compacting it goes into a terrible noise and shakes the compactor. I have to manually go turn it off. I would love for some one to have checked this out for me. No one was willing to help me. We will not buy another trash compactor.
