    Unit too large for my plumbing set up.

    Size measurements should be marked on disposals as we found that they do vary in height and width. Unfortunately, this unit was slightly taller than the space available since it sits closely to the plumbing piping. No issues with the item but should be noted to verify size before purchase.

    It's a basic disposal - it works. It's loud and was $100. You could get a 1.5hp/ silent at another place for less . This one is underwhelming and has a high pitch whirl noise when used. It is easy to install.

    Decent Disposal

    It works fine. It is not super loud and clunky, which is nice. However, the drain hole in the sink is small which allows sink water to back up.

    This garbage disposal worked adequately for 9 months. Water drains really slowly through the opening. After 9 months, I heard a loud pop and it no longer works. I have tried all the troubleshooting tips I could find and the motor will just buzz and does not grind up anything when the switch is thrown. I would not recommend this disposal.

    Just okay. It was the only option in store, and my plumber had to remove the installed plug to hardwire it

    Just a basic disposer, on the noisy side. Gets the job done at a good price but I should've bought a quieter model.

    It works but it takes forever to clear up drain with even just water in it. Buy at least 1 Horsepower and go for a different brand. I thought Frigidaire was good but they dropped the ball on this one. impossible to return. I would have to pay another $100 for installation.... I'm stuck with it....
