Frigidaire1/2 HP Corded Garbage Disposal for Kitchen Sinks | FF05DISPC1

Very sturdy, no vibration. It is fairly quiet even though I have a stainless sink which doesn't muffle sound as well as my own cast iron sink did. Would buy again.

Quietest, High Performance, Ease of Installation, good value for the money with great design.

Replacing an Insinkerator "Badger 5" which lasted. six years. Leaking through motor.Bought this Frigidaire.PROS: Powerful 3/4 hp motorStainless steel grinding chamber and blades.Exterior enclosure to reduce noise. Much quieter.Price as within $15 of the Badger 5. WowFits existing insinkerator mount. Did not need to remove/replace itHas a unique magnetic band which fits around the unit to help revent metal object from being chewed up or hurled back at you. Referred to as the Silver Band or similar....humorous in than silver is non magnetic.Took under 45 minutes to remove old and install new. Trimmed ABS as noted above. Plug is attached to unit. Plug and Play...or Plug and Grind!TEN YEAR WARRANTY! Very happy with it.CONS: (Very Minor, just to note)Due to sound enclosure, unit is wider. Required a 3/4" shortening of cross flow ABS pipe.Mounting plate to discharge pipe is metric. "old" unit bolts won't fit. Comes with all new hardware.Made in China.

Works well. Durable and easy to replace and instructions. Good value

Our old 1/3HP garbage disposer disposed of itself after 15+ years of service. We looked up on ConsumerReports, and saw that this was the highest rated, and who can argue with a 12 year warranty?Installation was pretty simple. Our previous device was hard-wired, while this has a plug on the end, so the only complexity was to add a switched outlet under the sink. Even with that, and the under-sink contortions, complete installation was less than two hours. I'm not a pro plumber, but I've gotten wet a few times. All the connections were exactly where I'd expect them to be - no modifications needed.Noise: Our previous device was loud - you knew when it was running - but this is so quiet! A little 'click' when the impellers fly out into position, and after that, just a low hum.Performance: It doesn't seem to clear water as quickly as our old one, but we'll get used to it. A Garbage Disposal genie may be in our future.Features: I like the silver-capture (only works on ferrous materials, not silver....). Tests look good, and I'm sure my wife will perform a real-life test shortly.Warranty: 12 years! Can't fault that! I called Frigidaire to register the device, and they still wanted to sell me an extended warranty :)Note that Consumer Reports says that disposers in general are very reliable, with an average of 10 years lifespan, so they do not recommend extended warranties.Disappointments: None, really. There isn't a hole at the bottom to get an allen key into in case of jams, but that's it. And access is so good, with the removable splash guard, that you'd do that from the top anyway.

I bought this to replace an Insinkerator Badger (3/4 horsepower) that died after only 3 years, and I could not be happier. The Frigidaire, with 1.25 horsepower, is clearly in a different weight class. Instead of the loud, gargly, sink-vibrating sound you're probably used to, this disposal emits a steady, low growl that just feels more stable and confident.Installation was easy, except that it took me a moment to realize that the provided elbow joint connecting to the drain port had slightly different dimensions from my existing setup. I just used the existing plumbing connection and the existing sink connection, and I had the whole thing done in less than 30 minutes. And the 10-year warranty gives me peace of mind knowing I won't have to do this again for a while.

My son installed this disposal. He is very handy but not a pro. It went in very easily and did not present any problems. He replaced the new part that goes up into the sink and uses a better setup than the one that was there. I was very happy with the disposal and pleased that is turned out to be a very nice piece of equipment, as far as we can tell in such a short time. I really liked the slender shape of the item and it gave me more room under the sink.

I bought the 1 1/4 HP for $168 and I have to say it is worth every penny. It is strong and not very loud at all. I have used several of the Lowes ones over the years and they are very mediocre compared to this product. I have been using it straight for two months now and no problems, unless something changes would purchase again.
