Great Disposal–easy install, January 20, 2010
This review is from: Waste King 9980 Legend Series 1 HP Continuous Feed Operation Waste Disposer (Tools & Hardware)

We had an 1/3 hp insinkerator badger and the grinding chamber actually cracked and split. So, off to shopping–came across this unit and wanted to try a different company’s machine. The price was right for the size of the unit. I took this out of the box, reviewed the install and finished the project in less than 45 minutes. The unit looks great and fit perfectly where the badger was. Of interest, the 9980 comes with a 90 degree elbow out of the side of the machine to hook to the waste line. On a double sink, this would not work. So I used the tail from the badger which was a straight pipe and discarded the elbow. The unit then fit right into place–picture perfect. It seems to me on the height and hookup, the measurements were exact to that of the insinkerator badger. So the hardest part of the install was removing the old unit which was seemingly extremely tight in place–that took the majority of the time. Of other interest, when you go to fit the collar to the unit, make sure you use soft soap as it suggests–the unit popped right into place with no struggle. Also, the instruction says on a stainless sink to not use plumber’s putty but to use the rubber gasket–did and no leaks.

Waste King advantage, February 1, 2009

Amazon Verified Purchase(What’s this?)

I replaced a Sink Master 1/3 HP disposer with a Waste King Legend 1/2 HP 9930. Sink Master is made by Waste King and is the cheaper model. The Sink Master had a galvinized grinding chamber which rusted out absolutely after 20 years but the motor still ran fine. The new Waste King has a stainless steel chamber and I anticipate a good 20 years or more from this unit. The direct current motor is a major advantage over other disposers. It has a higher starting and low speed torque than induction motors of the same horsepower making it virtualy stall and jam proof. Even my old 1/3 HP Sink Master did not jam and the seals never leaked.

This review is from: Waste King 9980 Legend Series 1 HP Continuous Feed Operation Waste Disposer (Tools & Hardware)

We renovated the kitchen and chose this disposer to upgrade the 1/3 hp that we had. It is so much better! It doesn’t miss a beat no matter what you put down it. Runs very quiet. The price on Amazon (currently 1) is high. We got ours for at a local store. Incredible value at that price.
