Amazon.com Product Description
The In-Sink-Erator Badger 5-1/2 HP food waste disposer adds quality, performance, and reliability to the innovative product features found in waste disposal units. Powered by rugged induction motors and mounted to your sink with tough, stainless steel assemblies, In-Sink-Erator disposers are designed for years of trouble-free service. The included heavy-duty dura-drive motor is designed and manufactured to the same exacting specifications found in major appliances like washers and dryers. The increased horsepower allows the disposer to grind even tough bones quickly and efficiently, while the stainless steel construction in the grind system prevents corrosion from shortening the life of the disposer. Other features include insulated sound shells that shield grind chamber noise, and additional sound deadening with a secondary sound baffle. The disposer also features a quick-lock sink mount that makes installation fast and easy. Simply twist off the old disposer and twist on the new one. The device delivers a continuous feed, as well as 360-degree swivel impellers. This disposer also features a 1-year parts and in-home warranty.

 Started leaking and needed replacement after 4 years October 22, 2009
Armin S. (Boston, MA, USA)
It worked fine for about 4 years until it started leaking from the reset button at the bottom of the unit. Apparently this is a common problem in this unit. The problem couldn't be fixed and we had to replace it by a new garbage disposal. I would hope that a garbage disposal lasts longer than that. It was pretty noisy too.

Celia (San Francisco, CA)
Installation would have been much faster if it came with the power cord, had to use the old one. So far no problems.
 Broke in about 4 months - literally in 2 October 14, 2009
Rhebuy (Fort Worth, TX United States)
Our badger 5 literally broke in two this afternoon. the plastic just literally broke. and the disposer broke into two pieces. never had that happen before. we bought it 4 months ago.
 Good Product easy to install October 2, 2009
Alan (Boston, ma)
I had an InSinkErator that was in my house when I bought it. I had it for 10 years so who knows how old it was. When it wore out I was certain that it would be a big job to replace it. I ordered the same model (yes they still make the same model) and I installed it without changing a single fitting. It took about a half hour and it is very hard to access under my sink. I could have installed it quicker if it wasn't so tight under my kitchen sink.
Starts life a disposer, ends up a shower head September 19, 2009
Skinnyskier (Eagle River, AK)
My Badger 5 worked as expected until just after the 2-year warranty expired. Then while searching for the source of water under the sink and odd bits of crust on the disposer, I discovered several cracks in the grind chamber housing. When I filled the sink with water and cranked up the disposer, it became something very like a feature at a kids' waterpark -- but much less fun.
ISE responded to my complaint with an offer of a discount on a new Badger but would not provide any assurance that its design or manufacture had been changed to address this apparently common problem. I'm used to disposers lasting for decades, not months, and don't enjoy spending time off under my kitchen sink, so I'm going to try a Waste King this time around.
