Amazon.com Product Description:
The In-Sink-Erator Badger 1-1/3 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 such as 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.

Average Rating: out of 5 stars
Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Good value, but not as quiet, long-lived as others
Our builder-installed InSinkErator died after four years of use, and we replaced it with this model, a slightly newer but similar model of the same brand.We chose this one because of the price and because we knew we could install it using the same fitting/space as the old one.

This Badger is not as noisy as some, but it's not nearly as quiet as some of the upper end models.(We installed an upper end model in my parents' home a couple of months after we bought this one, and my parents' ... Read More

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - By Evolution model, not Badger
I too have one that leaked water through the casing.I can understand if it fails after awhile where the blades wear out or motor wears out but they shouldn't have a casing that opens up and leaks water in the under sink cabinet.

I've replaced this with a more expensive Evolution model.It costs more but I figure over a 10 year span, I'll have saved more money and frustration than buying Badger models over and over.Too many Badger reviews also say their casings leaked.

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Case Cracked, Blades Rusted
There must be some kind of systematic design flaw with this model.

I've owned two of these little monsters, and on both of them, the blades were covered in rust after about 5 years of gentle use.Is this what water and dish soap do to the moving parts in that amount of time?No wonder they won't warranty it for more than a year.

On the first unit, the blades just locked up -- I assumed due to the corrosion.On the second unit, the case developed a crack in its side, and water ... Read More

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Cracked and Useless
Had a new house built in 06 and the builder installed the unit.Only stayed in the new house for a couple of months in 06 and a couple of months in 07 and finally moved in full time July of 08.Never had a disposal before so we really didn't use it to the full extent and only have two people living in the house.In Dec of 08 I noticed a leak under the sink and upon investigationfound that the plastic housing where the waste pipe connects had about a 1/4"crack.The unit hasn't been in use for even ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent value
The Badger 1 at 1/3 HP is a fine value compared to the 1/4 HP disposals offered at or near the same price.It took me 10 minutes to install the disposal, even under a new sink/counter where there hadn't already been one.

* If you are buying this disposal, you will need to purchase a plug for it, or be prepared to hard wire it.
