Tools and Hardware Reviews of InSinkErator 444; 3/4 Horsepower Food Waste Disposer
Customer Review: The insinkerator 444 is a poor choice
Summary: 1 Stars
I have owned and used two insinkerator 444 disposal units. The first one
failed after 2 years due to a bearing failure. Insinkerator replaced the
entire unit free of charge. (Husband performed the labor) The second unit
lasted about 2.5 years and it seems like the same problem is occurring
(noisy operation and locking up). I do not abuse the disposer and have
decided to purchase from a different manufacturer (waste King) this time
and hope that insinkerator will learn to make a better product.
Customer Review: Defective design
Summary: 1 Stars
Mine started leaking after five years. That might sound ok, but we give it pretty light use, and a disposer should last at least ten. A little online research shows that this is a common problem and is due to a design defect. The casing rusts through and can't be fixed. ISE has known about this problem for years, and in fact came out with a modified design in 2005 that tried to address this problem.
ISE refused to do a thing for me. My next disposer will be from a different company, one that cares about its customers.
Customer Review: Rusted out and non-functional after 7 years
Summary: 1 Stars
I have to chime in with a similar story -- our unit failed after seven years due to rusting and leaking from the exposed screw shafts on the underside of the unit. I was shopping for a replacement unit until I came across these reviews. I am now going to investigate competitive brands.Customer Review: It Leaks After A Few Years! - NOT Recommended!
Summary: 1 Stars
Read the reviews posted here (and elsewhere), this unit will develope a leak in the casing that can not be fixed after 4 or 5 years. I will not be replacing mine with a InSinkErator model!
Not recommended!
Customer Review: Disposal
Summary: 4 Stars
I had one of these before and replaced it with the same unit, as I think that that makes it easier for the plunbing connections.
