InSinkErator BADGER5, Continuous-Feed Garbage Disposal without Cord, Waterborne Gray Enamel, 1/2 HP Reviews

4.1 Rating 299 Reviews
I had this garbage disposal installed by a plumber. I've had it for several months with no concerns. It seems to be quieter than other disposals I've had in the past.

To my surprise this is the first unit that comes with the power cord already installed and sealed from factory, a great time saver when I'm trying to get out fast from a condo.This is the only brand and model I've been installing for decades and it's a breeze.

My Badger disposal was installed over 20 years before it finally broke so I replaced it with this, near identical, model so . I’m old, 73 with no plumbing experience and it took me less than 2 hours Working on my back in a confined space was a pain (literally) but other than that not a difficult job.

This review would be a 5 star based only on the actual disposal performance as this brand is excellent, thats why I ordered it. The downside for me was I ordered with the power cord and got the disposal without a power cord so I had to wire the power cord from the old disposal to this one and I am no electrician or really even much of a handyman to begin with so I wasn’t excited about doing that. (They did refund a couple dollars for the difference between this disposal and the one without the power cord). I see where people say it doesn’t make noise but I cant share in that experience because it does make some noise, it’s not obnoxiously loud at all but you’re going to hear it turn on.Installation wasn’t that difficult and honestly if I didn’t have to wore the power cord it would have been much easier and faster. This is a DIY project almost anyone can do as long as you can get yourself under the sink.I will update this in a year or so if the performance becomes any sort of issue but as of now it works great.

I wish I would have gotten this thing a long time ago!

If the current one is the same brand and size, installation takes less than 10 mins. It's working great so far.
