Waste King L-111 Compact Garbage Disposal

Removed a 1/2 hp waste king and installed this one. It contained most everything needed for the install. I have used them all. Most are made by Emerson Motor Corperation and resemble ISE In-Sink-erator. These resembles GE Is it made by GE Im not sure. It was years ago. The installation was simple. My recomendtion is to use Plumbers Putty arount the sink flange. My experience with the INCLUDED rubber gasket is, the oils from the food attacks it and it swells. The rubber doesent have muct to seal on with a porcelin sink (like mine). The putty will last for many many years,and has always been used by the pros. less than $3.00 a tub normally. Be sure the flange it tightened fully. Perhaps recleck its tightness after a few days to be sure. Dont go crqazy just until it stops turning against the sink and and a bit beyond snug. its plactic remember. plug it in and go. This machine really spins up fast and will emulsify nicely. This unit uses a steel grinding element. It appears to be stainless. However says steel. For this reason and this reason only, My recommendation is to use the 1/2 hp unit. The stainless will resist the rusting inside of the unit. It is ony a few dollars more. Most of this unit is plastic. Dont be afraid of this as its been plastic for many decades and is good. The ISE units are White Metal (aluminum ish stuff) and does corrode eventually. The 1/2 hp unit that came out was around 6 years old. I anticipate this will last around 4-5. 6/14/2025 I have to laugh at the level of detail that some buyers put in there reviews .Its Amazing and thankss everyone that did. This information is most important to some. Especially since there are so many vaiations of homes and sinks. That being said, My 1/3 hp unit is still running well however my next one will probably be the 1/2 HP unit. I just feel for the extra money ist best to stay with the same thing thats proven itself. Also it had more sound insulation is appears.

Growing up our home always had an InSinkErator underneath the sink. As an adult that's the brand I always bought, because it had always worked. When hubby and I bought our lovely 1949 home a decade ago there was a fairly new InSinkErator already installed and it served us adequately for ten years. Recently it gave up the ghost...and I couldn't be happier. Why? Because now I know that Waste King exists, and boy do they make an amazing garbage disposal. We had some unexpected bills earlier in the month so I was on the hunt for a bargain. I couldn't find a good deal on an InSinkErator anywhere. So, glumly, I started looking at alternate brands. One of the big box home improvement stores had this model Waste King as it's lowest-priced offering in the garbage disposal category. Thing is...it was cheapest and still had an almost perfect review rating on a sizable number of reviews. That got me to digging around and the praise for Waste King's products was both effusive (folks just raved about their products) and that praise was universal (meaning the opinion was shared by both consumer and professional alike). I headed over to Amazon Warehouse Deals and they just so happened to have a return item for $38.49 which is a steal. It arrived via Prime and I opened up the package and couldn't believe how skinny this thing was. I started to worry...how could this perform as well as that hulking mass that used to reside underneath the sink, taking up so much of the limited space that's down there. I shouldn't have worried. After a quick and painless installation process we fired it up and sent some things through to test it. Operation has been utterly flawless. It's ridiculously quiet compared to the unit it replaced. Thus far I've been unable to throw anything at it that it didn't chew right through. But I'm not the least bit worried because Waste King backs this, their entry-level unit, with a free 2-year in home replacement warranty. Yep, for the first two years if anything goes wrong they'll come out and take care of it. That right there is the sign of a company that truly believes in and stands behind their product. Stop going back and forth trying to settle on this brand or another. Buy. The. Waste. King. Now.

I had a Badger, or Ace equivalent that got jammed. I took it apart to clear the jam and when I put it back together, it leaked. Even after I took it back off and put it together again. It was so much trouble getting it lined up and together correctly, especially since I have a tight space and no wiggle room for the drain connector, and my other drain pipes are for some reason, glued together. I was not looking forward to doing this a third time when I found this Waste King on Amazon. It is about half the cost of a replacement Badger, lighter, slimmer, and has a cord already attached. I took the old one out, studied the new one and looked over the instructions. It is logical and easy to follow. I have a composite sink, and my plumber's putty was dried out, so I used silicone to seal the drain ring, as many people seem to be doing nowadays. It all went together easily, much easier than the old Badger 3-ring style, and locked into place. It lined up exactly with my drain line and dishwasher hose and works perfectly. The only reason for 4 stars is that it has no place for a hex wrench to clear clogs. You have to go in through the top, but at least the splash guard is removable, so it's not too difficult. Also, you can purchase a tool that goes in through the top at Home Depot that has a handle you can turn, so there's no need to use a wooden dowel. The hex hole would have been an easy inclusion, and I have no idea why they left it off.

Easy installation with easy to understand instructions. Runs quietly Appears to be well built.

We replaced the exact same model after about 9 years of service. Works great and was a snap to install. Took about 15 minutes

非常にコストパフォーマンスで気に入りました。配送がもう少し早ければ尚いいのですが

I recently purchased the Waste King garbage disposal unit online, which was delivered on 9th Feb. However, my experience with both the product and the company has been incredibly frustrating. Firstly, neither the company nor Amazon provided installation services, leaving me to find someone independently. This process alone took 15 days, causing unnecessary delay and inconvenience. Once installed, the unit only functioned for a mere two days, and on the third day, smoke started emanating from it, indicating a serious malfunction. Attempts to contact the company for assistance were futile, as they claimed that India is not within their service territory. This raises the question: if they cannot service products in this country, why are they selling them online? What's more disappointing is the fact that this product is not cheap; it comes with a significant price tag, yet the quality and service provided are subpar. In conclusion, my experience with the Waste King garbage disposal has been nothing short of a disappointment. Not only is the product faulty, but the lack of support and service from the company is unacceptable. I urge potential buyers to think twice before investing in this product, as it has proven to be a waste of both time and money.

Buen producto

I bought this to replace my Mainline Model 1900 1/3 horsepower garburator. It is the exact fit. The only difference is there is a plug instead of the unit being wired in, so my friend had to come over and install an outlet under the sink and wire that up to code, then he installed the unit easily. I would give the unit a 5-STAR to install except we had to install the electrical outlet first (as one did not previously exist under the sink). But once installed, the unit ran perfectly and is quite quiet!
