excellent, safe disposal, March 16, 2009

This review is from: Waste King L-8000TC Legend Series 1 HP Batch Feed Operation Waste Disposer (Tools & Hardware)

I have been happy with this disposal. It is very safe since it is only operates with the drain cover securely covering the throat of the disposal. There is no risk for fingers to get caught unawares or for shards of food (such as bones) to unexpectently fly out. It is quiet, powerful and I have not had difficulty correctly positioning the cover to activate the switch.

This review is from: Waste King L-8000TC Legend Series 1 HP Batch Feed Operation Waste Disposer (Tools & Hardware)

After going through three 3/4 HP Insinkerators in 10 years, I’d had it with that brand. Having recently switched to Waste King, I can say that the 1 HP model is quiet and powerful. The difference between 3/4 HP and 1 HP is huge. The accompanying manual says that you can put corn cobs in the Waste King–they do not advocate it since they take a very long time to grind, but, trust me, it would be disposal suicide to try corn cob disposal in an Insinkerator. As an experiment, I did put a corn cob into the Waste King, and it did grind it down (took about 5 minutes). To me, this is impressive.

I do not know how long the Waste King will last, but the unit seems to be much sturdier and stronger than the Insinkerator (I’m talking of the 3/4 HP Insinkerator that Home Depot carries).

Pros:

Easy to install and the instructions were reasonably clear.

Powerful, quiet, hasn’t jammed once in the 3 months I have had it.

Larger opening than the equivalent Insinkerator models, making it easier to fish out spoons, etc. that always seem to end up in the disposal.

Cons:

The cap that makes the disposal run is entirely plastic. I’d like a sturdier one with some metal in it.

To those who say it’s hard to position the cap, it’s pretty much the same as the Insinkerator and any other batch model. Once you figure out the o’clock position, you’ll be fine.

This was part of a kitchen renovation. We have been happy with this disposal. It only operates with the drain cover securely covering the drain/disposal. There is no risk for fingers to get caught. It is quiet, powerful and no difficulty correctly positioning the cover to activate the switch after the first try.
