Overview

Homeowners replacing an old InSinkErator get a compact disposal from the Badger line that twists onto the existing mount. The induction motor drives galvanized steel grind parts, and the cord is already wired so it plugs into an under sink outlet.

Easy replacement is the angle: the cord is attached and the mount locks on with a twist. The single stage grind and small motor handle light scraps, not bones or heavy fibrous waste.

Who it's for

Small kitchens, rentals and light daily use suit a compact disposal. Busy cooks grinding peels and scraps in bulk should look at a larger motor.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Power cord already installed
  • Twist-on mount for quick swaps
  • Compact under sink footprint
  • All mounting hardware included
Cons
  • Small motor for heavy waste
  • Single stage grind only

Performance notes

Grinding power comes from the induction motor turning the plate against the shred ring, so feeding scraps gradually with cold water prevents stalls. The included wrenchette frees jams from below.
