Ordered the Waste King 8000 and received it in just a few days. It looks and appears to be so much better than my Badger5. Installation took more like 4 hours but believe now that I did it once, that time could be cut in half the next time. It is important to note the length from the middle of the unit to the middle of the exhaust water exit tube. My badger was 5" and the new unit was 5 9/16", so a difference of over 1/2". It did fit but is very tight and will monitor to make sure there are no leaks. The noise level is fine and the grinding seems far superior to my older unit. A major upgrade to my prior device.

I bought the disposal to replace the builder's special 1/3 HP disposal unit, which died. It was easy to install, once I figured out the directions. It is very quiet and powerful. The sink no longer shakes and rattles when you turn on the disposal unit. I am very happy with it, the price and, the lifetime in home warranty.

I installed the Waste King Waste Disposer replacing another model that stopped working. It is bigger than the last one I had but I have a lot of room under the sink. I had the 3 screw mount and this unit came with the Easy Mount. I removed the old mount and install the Easy Mount without problems. If you are going to do it yourself I highly recomend whatching the how to videos on the web. This Old House have some great videos. The plubing video was very helpful for I don't have experience doing this kind of instalation. I ended up turning the dispenser and using a different set up that made the installation easier. Even though this unit is bigger than my old one it is quieter and vibrates less. It comes with a cord and plug, my old unit was a direct wire so I installed a connector and used the plug that came with the unit. Thanks for the other reviews that helped me make this decision. I am happy with the purchase.

The install went flawlessly. It allowed me to reroute the drain piping under the cabinet to make more room for storage which was something I needed to do anyway. I did not use the adapter kit but replaced the whole drain assembly with the assembly provided with the disposal. It is quieter than the Insinkerator it replaced and more powerful. I expect a long and useful life from this product.

This Disposal has without a doubt the worst designed mounting system that could ever be.I have spent hours under the sink trying to lock this piece of crap in place!When I bought this I was looking for a disposal for 3 properties that I have and planned onbuying 3 of them if I liked it.I wouldn't take the other two if they gave me them for free!I may be sending this back! WHAT A POOR DESIGN!MY SUGGESTION, BUY SOMETHING ELSE!

The motor died after 15 months...I had bought a similar unit from Costco last year.Really messy.Irritating, loud clicking noise when the motor starts.The thin metal ring on the top came off, because coffee grounds loged underneath after some time.The unit is too heavy for the mechanism to screw it on.The engine was too strong for the flimsy holders...but only until it died.I went with a Sears Incinerator OEM with 5 years warranty in-home exchange instead.Less power but much stronger built.Don't waste your time with waste king products.
