InSinkErator EVOLUTION 1HP 1 HP, Advanced Series Continuous Feed Food Waste Garbage Disposal, Gray

Excellent garbage disposal. Very powerful, quiet, and easy to install. It handles food waste without any problem and works much better than my previous unit. The quality feels premium and it was definitely worth the investment.

Purchased as a replacement after my daughter realized that a teaspoon doesn't go down the garbage disposal. Great quality, came with everything I needed to do the install myself. It's not hard to do yourself, but I would recommend that you need a helper to avoid some curse words along the way. In terms of size, it's larger than most others, and little heavier too - but that adds capacity and power, and surprisingly it's extremely quiet.

I purchased an InSinkErator disposal 23 years ago. It has worked flawlessly - not a moment of trouble. The reason I replaced it was because the drain port clogged and could not be cleared without damaging the unit. A 20+ year service life is unheard these days, so when I needed a new unit, I went with InSinkErator again. I didn't need customer reviews; I lived the review! I had some questions about replacing the old unit. InSinkErator has a Help Line, I called on a Saturday and the woman who answered really new the product line. I gave the model of the old unit and the one I was planning to purchase and asked if the installation parts were interchangeable. Turns out they are. That meant a real time savings on the install. Also spared my back. As for the unit itself, it is amazingly quiet. Everyone in the family has, at one time or another, commented on the lack of noise. I used a sink-mounted on/off button - it is a shorter reach than the wall switch I installed 23 years ago. One more point worth making: they have improved the installation method so that you do not have to bench press the unit. All you do is lift high enough for a hook to catch, you then swing it up into place and tighten the lock ring. Super easy! I am completely satisfied with this product, but even more so with the company!

Purchased to replace an existing Insinkerator disposal. The old one lasted around 30 years (forget exactly when I put it in, mid 90's.) It was still running but sounded like one of the bearings was failing, and it had done its job perfectly. Quiet, took everything I could shove down its throat, including steak bones. This new one is even quieter. (A lot quieter.) And smoother. I pack the remains into it and it goes gulp..! I'm amazed how much improvement they've made in the last 30 years. If you're looking to move in a few years, I'd recommend a less expensive unit. But if you're like us and like where you live, nothing beats top quality. Not only will this unit last for decades, it will do the job better and quieter than any other residential unit on the market. (I also bought the matching cord to make installation faster and easier.) Follow up, 1 year. Disposal has proven to be extremely quiet and takes everything. We had a professional plumber install the unit as I'm getting too old to crawl under inside the kitchen cabinet and lift the unit into sink connector and lock. Last week I turned on the disposal and it fell out of the connector, which is attached to the drain. The plummer came out at 8 am next morning and re mounted the disposal (along with some plastic drain the broke when it fell.) Recommend that when you install, you use water pumps to make absolutely certain that the clamping ring is tightened to its max. Have a feeling that the plummer failed to do this when he installed a year ago.) This is a very expensive disposal, but it's also top quality. If you want the best, the quietest, the most powerful, this is the one.

Very easy to install, quiet and powerful; a worthy upgrade to my old noisy broken model.

The evolution seems to be a large improvement of the longer, earlier models, in several areas. It definitely provides a finer ground, and seems to be better insulated. That does add weight, but it muffles sound far more than earlier disposals, and seems to run smoother. The added weight also may be the reason it 'moves' less. The quieter use means I can use it when people are sleeping and not be concerned about waking them up. If you have older pipes, or any sort of questionable septic situation, this model is a must over others due to the several stage grinding. It basically eliminates any issues this could bring up. While it won't remove any issues due to misuse (you still can't put grease or meat down these, no matter what people say), it won't cause any issues. One observation is that the motor, likely due to it's power, takes a second or two longer than its predecessors to spin down. Its a little heavy; holding or carrying it might not seem like it, but when you have to lift it in a small cabinet and hold it up, it suddenly can become a little cumbersome. This weight is unavoidable considering the entire thing is a giant grinding motor. You can install it yourself, but it's best to bring a friend. I still feel after installing several of these the twist on flange is unintuitive and the instructions are a little unclear for new users. While a lot of people may prefer the new cable 'plug' setup as it is easier to use, the added cost I would have rather wired it the old way myself, since it added an additional I believe $10 to the cable cost. This isn't a deal breaker, just a frustration. They may have found in testing and support that the cable situation too confusing for people, but I don't know how, as it was color coded. Regardless, Five out of five stars, I would purchase again and strongly recommend.

This is a heavy-duty high-quality garbage disposal. It costs more than the cheap ones, but it will last much longer, meaning that I won't need to replace it as soon. Also, it is powerful and quiet. The easy mount system that they have adopted in recent years is a vast improvement over the previous mounting system.

I install garburators for customers all the time, the home owner had an old version of the insinkerator that lasted for about 10 years, pretty good considering how much crap goes down them, so I went with the upgraded version and it is perfect. It bolted right on to the old hardware, even though it came with new stuff. I bought the lug in adaptor kit extra to go to plug style since he had a gfi under the sink already. Easy wiring. Then only difference in the mounting of the unit was the drain office was about 1 inch shorter then the original one and the drain pipe was to short to be able to use the old drain, so I just had to cut it and add an extension on the abs. No big deal. Definitely the quietest model I have heard on the market today for that amount of hp. Just remember to keep the rubber dampening gaurd on to eliminate the noise coming back up from the unit. This model is now my go to for all clients willing to get the best.

Equipo nuevo y respaldado por la marca que yo nocozco desde hacer más de dos décadas. El instructivo indica que es meno ruidoso, pero en la realidad es casi imperceptible la diferencia con un equipo anterior de la misma marca de 3/4 hp.

Please do not buy this in Europe. This is not a model for European market. First of all you need to understand, that you will need to buy a specific parts sold separately to even get it to work. Second: The InSinkErator Evolution 1 HP garbage disposal is designed to operate exclusively on 120 volts at 60 Hz. It is not compatible with 220-volt systems.   Attempting to connect this 120V model to a 220V power supply can result in damage to the unit and poses significant safety risks. For regions with 220V electrical systems, InSinkErator offers models specifically designed for that voltage, such as the Model 46 and Evolution 100.  It’s advisable to purchase your InSinkErator product from an authorized retailer in your country to ensure compatibility with local electrical standards and to validate the warranty.
