This product was very difficult to install.

The mounting system requiring the disposer to be held in place while the locking collar is twisted was very difficult. I tried numerous time both by myself and with an assistant but could not get the locking collar started. I finally used a jack to hold the disposer in place while turning the locking collar. Then trying to turn the collar far enough to fully lock the disposer in place was very difficult, even with the suggested petroleum jelly. There was no good way to get enough leverage on the ring because the small tabs only stick out about an inch. Next time I'll buy another brand.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

A great Disposal that could use a few tweaks
on December 20, 2015
Posted by: Captainwingfoot
from Charlotte, NC, United States
I just finished installing what I believe will be a really great Strong disposal. It could use a few improvements in the installation area that would be a tremendous benefit. First, the dishwasher inlet port knock out plug is grossly under scored. It takes too muck force to knock the plug out as the instructions indicate. I used several "blunt" drifts finally relying on a 3/8 sucked extension after splintering two wooden dowel rods. When the extension finally breached the plug, I was rewarded with a badly bruised thumb. This plug, unless redesigned, should be drilled out and not knocked out. Second, I found the electrical connection box on the bottom of the unit has very limited access for the power cable. Two ports 180 degrees apart would help greatly. Thirdly, putting three cover back in place after making the electrical connections is way too difficult when you consider the bottom of most cabinets only gives you about 4 inches of clearance between the bottom of the unit and the cabinet floor. Also the nut that secures the round cover plate on the connection box cannot be tightened with either a nut driver or a thin wall socket. There is not enough clearance in the recess to allow the nut to be wrenched properly. You really should suggest in the instructions that the electrical connections be made with the unit upside down leaving a 3 or 4 ft length of cable as a pig tale for final connection at a close power access point. A final suggestion: the neck of the flange that passes through the sink bottom could be 2 inches shorter. This would provide adequate room for the assembly of all the mounting parts plus it would give much needed access area under the bottom of the unit to make the electrical connections. The time I spent for this installation that was a replacement of a broken disposal exceeded 6 hours. This included modifying the plumbing connections and major modifications to the electrical supply. A new installation would take less time. Having finally completed the installation, I am fully satisfied with the product and believe it will fully meet our expect ions.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Decent product

Bought this over the weekend to replace our old unit that stopped working. Very easy to install. From start to finish, less than 30 mins! Seems to work fine. It is a very quiet unit, with the only exception that it makes a "grinding" noise when you turn it on. It's no big deal for us since that last a fraction of a second. The unit that we replaced was the 1/2 HP GE unit. It was very loud and vibrates a lot even with little food waste in it. My suggestion is that you pay the $30 or so difference to get this unit. You'll be a lot happier!!!!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Quiet and gets the job done
on July 28, 2013

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This unit is much quieter than the two previous disposals I've owned, but much more powerful... at first I was surprised at how quickly things were disposed (I checked to make sure it was done because it seemed a bit too quiet). While it's not silent, previous units made a lot of mechanical noises that reminded you it had a lot of moving parts... this one makes a deep whirring noise, but isn't intrusive.

This model has been installed for about a year and there have been no problems. It functions well and is relatively quiet. It has shown to be a quality disposer.
