Review on πŸ’ͺ Powerful Waste King L-3200 Garbage Disposal with 3/4 HP Motor and Power Cord by Lynn Cole

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Fairly powerful and quiet

I bought this make and model in the +/- $50 price range based on comparative reviews. I had a Badger 1 that he said lasted about 8 years. I chose the Waste King because it was easy to replace, has an 8 year warranty, increased my HP from 0.25 to 0.75, and is fairly quiet. If you replace the disposal, I'm sure you can do it yourself. There are many videos showing the pros and cons of these suction cups. There really aren't many of those things. There is a plug that needs to be removed when you plug in the dishwasher. It's also easy (just don't forget it). In addition, it comes with cables and is ready to use. If you need to install new disposal and add plumbing you can still do it yourself but I'll probably opt for professional installation. The last thing you want to do is have water damage and/or electrical problems. Renting doesn't have to be expensive, and peace of mind (and security) is definitely important. So far, so good. I will update this over time. Update 6.17.17 - Another year down the drain. No problems, no clogs, still runs smoothly and quietly. Update 6.4.16 - It's been a while and that's about it to say everything is fine. I had no problems or concerns whatsoever. I understood and appreciated how quiet it is compared to the Badger.

Pros
  • NO ELECTRICAL EXPERIMENTATION REQUIRED: Pre-installed power cord, no electrical work required
Cons
  • Great Price
