Impellers break off
on April 19, 2020
Posted by: Joseph4192020
from Chicago
I am on my third GFC520. The first two, after slightly more than 2 years, broke. In each case the impellers on the grinding plate separated. We are very careful what we grind - no bones, cut into small pieces before grinding etc. Assumed the first was an anomaly. Only bought a third since customer relations offered a $50 rebate, replacement installation is easy and maybe improvements were made in manufacture. The first two were GFC520Vs, the third is a GFC520N. The disposal function of grinding works well when impellers are in place and does not lock up.
Question has the impeller issue been addressed in the new model number?
I would not recommend unless there were improvements made in construction of the impeller attachments to the grinding plate.

One big failing.

I have just replaced the 2nd of the GFC520V series Garbage DisposAll units.
They worked fine for about 3 years, and both have failed the same way.
The cutters let loose because of wear and tear on them and the rivets that hold them in place. I have replaced the latest with a GFC520N only because of the ease in swapping it out. (no messing with the mounting hardware). Maybe the cutters and rivets should be of a harder wearing material

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
