Will we have better luck the second time around?

This is our second GE Profile Trash Compactor. We purchased our last compactor seven years ago and were very happy with just about every aspect of it: the capacity was tremendous; we were able to go at least a full week before having to empty the compactor and change to a new bag. We never had a problem with the functioning of the machine during the time we had it, and did not find it to be overly noisy. While I would not call the compacting cycle quiet, the cycle is brief enough that the sound from the compacting cycle is not a major distraction. Our only real complaint with the GE trash compactor was its lifespan. Seven years seems to be an unreasonably short lifespan. If a repair had been possible, I would be singing a different song. But to be told that GE was no longer making replacement parts is not acceptable IMHO! Planned obsolescence after a seven-year run is not the mark of a quality brand! If we have the same experience with our new GE Trash Compactor, it will also be our last GE Trash Compactor. Wish us luck, please!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Choose another brand if you can

This is the only compactor that will fit into my 26+ year old kitchen design. I had a KitchenAid that lasted 20 years and installed the previous version of this model which had 4 service calls in 5 years and was totalled as parts were not available. I woudln't choose this if you can fit another brand, the GE construction as with all their products is sub-par. I have a dishwasher from them as it was the only one that fit with 3 service calls already in 3 years.
