Unbelievably quiet
on September 1, 2024
Posted by: Geof56

The installation was very easy, a simple direct replacement of the old unit. The Insinkerator is so quiet, that I literally first thought it was not working. The prior unit was loud enough that you have to raise your voice to be heard if speaking while it is operating. No so with the new Insinkerator.
Pros: quiet operation, easy installation
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good replacement

I had an Inskinkerator that was 20+ years old. That played into my decision on which brand to get this time. I figured that the same brand would use the same mount to the sink, and I was right. Also, we got 20+ years out of the previous one, so this one could be the last disposer I need. Taking out the old one wasn’t too bad. Just remember, these things are HEAVY. When it is free from the sink, be prepared. One of the features on the new one said “EZ Grip Handles”. They are NOT handles. It’s simply textured rubber on the outside of the unit. My hands were wet from the old unit, so it wasn’t easy to grip. My wife grabbed it from the top and held it in place while I turned the collar to lock it in place. That was key on getting it installed. My only other complaint is the rubber insert that goes in the sink has a very small opening, and the rubber is stiff. It makes it a bit difficult to get scraps into the unit. I will say it is MUCH quieter than the old one. Hopefully it lasts as long as the 444 model we had previously. One final thing, it isn’t an issue with the product, but more with Amazon. When I opened the box, the collar was already assembled. It appeared that it was an open box, but it wasn’t advertised that way.
Pros: matched previous collar
Cons: misleading info on handles, may have been an open box

Get This One! Watch when you are cleaning products other than food in sink.

Best to get the top of the line if for nothing than the quiet. I think my last Insinkerator 1HP would have lasted forever but unfortunately it ate a ball bearing I could not see caused it to fail. So my suggestion is that if you are cleaning something in the sink other than food, best to insert a fine mesh strainer in place of the rubber sound muffler when doing so. Hey Insinkerator, including an inexpensive strainer with the product and tagging it with use instructions may not be a bad idea.

On the third unit
on October 5, 2024

from Vienna VA
I've had three one horse power Insinkerators over a number of years in my condominium apartment. They are easy to install and work well. However, their life span in not great. The second one I had lasted a year before froze up. The one prior to that got very noisy. So this is my third Insinkerator. I've kept with them as the installation is easy. Maybe the third time is a charm. I would like to send both of my old units back to the factory to get a read on what's going on.
I do like the new power connection system.
Pros: works well, easy to install
Cons: reliabiulity

Hi JefftheNuke, Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We are pleased to hear that the installation process has been easy for you. Although a disposer should last for many years, its lifespan can be affected by factors such as usage, water quality, and the type of waste put through it. We are sorry to hear about the issues you've had with previous disposers. The unusual noise and jammed disposer are problems that we can still help you with. We have a troubleshooting guide available that can assist you in resolving these issues. If you need further assistance, please contact us at https://support.insinkerator.com/app/ask. We appreciate your continued support of our InSinkErator product.

Very quiet

This new disposal is very quiet and powerful. I cook a lot and as a result my disposal gets a lot of use. Th more the disposal can grind, the less I have to put in my trash, so my kitchen smells nice and clean. Truly a wonderful convenience!
This is my second Insinkerator. The previous model lasted a long time.
My plumber installed it and all went smoothly.

Powerful yet quiet
on October 10, 2024
Posted by: Mac13
from Norwood, NJ
So far, So good. My previous insinkerator lasted for many years and this is similarly constructed. It was easy to install and it is very quiet. Default power connection is not for everyone. The plug option was an extra cost as was the need to install a switch as the new ones don’t seem to allow you to turn them on with magnetic covers anymore. More dollars and more work, but when all was said and done I am satisfied.
Pros: ease of installation, quiet
Cons: power cord not included, remote switch required and not included

Product does the job

I would have given a higher rating except that the garbage disposal was difficult for a plumber to install and was noisier than I expected.
