Our verdict

A light, compact plug-in disposal for sinks that see modest scraps, with a cord already attached so no electrician is needed. The small motor is the limit, so heavy or fibrous waste belongs elsewhere.

Overview

A renter or first-time installer gets a disposal that arrives with its cord attached and mounts without wiring work. The permanent magnet motor spins stainless swivel impellers inside a glass-filled nylon chamber, and the removable splashguard lifts out for cleaning. A reset button on the front restarts it after a jam.

Weight and the attached cord are why this unit suits a quick swap under a cramped sink. Its motor is a low horsepower one, so it is meant for everyday plate scrapings and not for bones or large volumes of peelings.

Who it's for

Apartment sinks and secondary kitchens where scraps are mostly plate leavings suit this unit, and the pre-installed cord means a plug under the sink is all it needs. Households that cook from scratch daily or run a septic system that is not sized for a disposal should pass.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Power cord pre-installed
  • Lightweight compact body
  • Sound insulation included
  • Dishwasher hookup built in
Cons
  • Low horsepower for heavy waste
  • Grind chamber is nylon, not steel
  • Motor rpm not listed

Performance notes

A permanent magnet motor reaches speed quickly, and the swivel impellers swing away from hard objects instead of locking against them, which is how the unit resists jamming. The nylon chamber will not rust, but it is a small chamber behind a small motor, so large loads must be fed gradually with running water. Sound insulation damps the motor noise without removing it.
