Smaller Form Factor - More Cupboard Space

The biggest selling point for me was the smaller size of the unit. I was able to reorganize my under-sink area where an RO water unit takes up a lot of space. Installation was easy, maybe an hour and 45 minutes total mostly spent on cleaning the debris left from the previous disposer. We don't dispose of a lot of food waste this way, but when we do it works efficiently. Not as quiet as a more expensive model, but quieter than what we had before. I installed the same model in my parents house over a year ago and it continues to provide them with superior performance and quality.
Obtained this as a replacement for a 40+ year old disposal that had finally failed. Installation would have been easy if my house plumbing was in better shape. Took longer than advertised but I expected that. Removal of old disposal made me really appreciate the new mounting system. Did not have the capacity of my previous model (which GE said was the equivalent) and frankly the older one appeared sturdier/better made (but almost everything was back then) but new one works fine and can be installed by typical homeowner with a little electrical/plumbing experience.
