Customer Review: Fantastic disposer
Summary: 5 Stars
This disposer is so quiet! It also deals with everything we've put into it without breaking a sweat. It's a marvel, and makes working in the kitchen so pleasant. I would heartily recommend this, especially if you can find it on sale.Customer Review: Extremely quiet
Summary: 5 Stars
Installed the disposer about a month ago. I chose this one because it went into a SS sink and I was worried about the noise. I'm very please that the disposer is as quiet as I had hoped.Customer Review: Powerful and Quiet
Summary: 5 Stars
We replaced our InSinkErator garbage disposer for a more powerful one during the course of a kitchen remodel. The unit is powerful enough to deal with anything we will throw at it and has the added bonus of extremely quiet operation. You have to be in the kitchen to hear it at all! A quality appliance.Customer Review: garbage disposal unit
Summary: 5 Stars
Replaced with the same type /first unit lasted 13 years hope for the same with this one. Easy to install but you need 2 people. Customer Review: Best disposer yet.
Summary: 5 Stars
I replaced a 3/4 horsepower Waste King that was giving good service as long as we were careful with what we put through it. My wife saw a commercial for the Evolution Excel and wanted one. After doing research on its performance, I found it for $249.00 at Home Depot. Reports of its quietness are not exaggerated. This is the quietest disposer I have barely heard! Performance has been outstanding. I ground up a pineapple top just to see if it lived up to the hype - I was amazed. Shortly after I installed it, I tried to install my old disposer in a small kitchen at my church only to find that the drain was too high. The old unit at church was a Insinkerator that had been giving trouble for years - frequent clogs, blown fuses, etc. As facilities manager, I had to replace the old unit. While I am very conscious of saving money (my reason for donating my old unit) I also believe that buying cheap is false economy. I was able to find the same deal at another Home Depot. In our area Home Depot is no longer going to carry this model in the stores, but it is worth paying full price. Drain matched perfectly. I expect calls to clear clogs will be history.
Word of caution. You will need another person to hold down the flange in order to secure it to the sink. This unit is heavier and larger than most other units. I struggled with the first unit until I got the jack from my Toyota truck. At 65 I no longer have the arm strength to hold the unit up and fasten the bayonet latch at the same time. The second unit was a breeze to install. Make sure you save the power cord and cord clamp from your old unit or buy a replacement. Plan to make a trip to the hardware store to match your plumbing - consider yourself fortunate if the included parts are sufficient. Make sure to punch out the plug at the dishwasher connection. Removing that plug may be challenging if you have big hands. Needle nose pliers help.
