Tools and Hardware Reviews of InSinkErator Badger 1, 1/3 HP Household Food Waste Disposer
Customer Review: 14 months and is broken
Summary: 1 Stars
This came with our new house and is completely broken after less than 14 months. I will not buy another insinkerator product again. I have never had a disposal last less than 7 years.Customer Review: 4 years, Leaking, Rusting, Jamming, Junk
Summary: 1 Stars
I will not buy this brand again. Looks like there are MUCH better, longer-lasting options out there for a little more money. Looking to replace with this: Waste King L-8000 Legend Series 1 HP Continuous Feed Operation Waste Disposer.Customer Review: Another Cracked Casing... Don't Waste Your Money!!!
Summary: 1 Stars
I am convinced that the number of 'leak' reviews here (and elsewhere) points to one conclusion.... InSinkErator has clearly engineered this disposal to structurally fail so that you will then buy their more expensive products. My unit is just two years old and has multiple cracks in the molded metal casing. The internal wiring is likely to be getting wet, since the cracks are all over the unit.
I'm considering buying another brand, but they have conveniently designed the collar (the only well-made part of this unit and hardest part of a new install) to accept any of their higher priced models. I feel like sending them a bill for the water damage this unit has caused.
Here's an idea... stop selling this crap and design a slightly more expensive/safer unit that doesn't cause your customers to consider going elsewhere. Let's hear it for the InSinkErator marketing team for tarnishing an established household name through designed failure! Wheee!
Customer Review: Avoid this product
Summary: 1 Stars
I installed Badger 1 couple of years ago. It worked fine until about 6 months ago. Then it started to jam almost every week. Now it stopped working completely. I will never buy another product from In-Sink-Erator.Customer Review: Buy something better
Summary: 2 Stars
Well, this disposer is cheap. It's also noisy and vibrates a lot, so you get what you pay for. Also it rusted out and started leaking after five years. I would spend the extra money up front and buy a higher quality model.
