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

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!

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

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.

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.

Best I've ever used. I've never installed a disposal before and was able to get this in within 30 minutes. It uses the existing connection to the sink if you're upgrading from another insinkerator. It's also crazy quite, like I forget it's on sometimes quiet. The sounds of the water splashing is louder than the disposal. It's worth the money to get this model. I've had it for about a month now and would never recommend anyone get something else. It's a little bigger than my previous 1/3 hp model but there is no issue with space under the sink. It's easy to mount and holds up to large chunks of food.

This disposal replaced a 20 year old Badger5. It is really smooth and quiet! Fast grinder, too. It has the same connection system as the old one, which meant we did not have to replace the sink parts. Installation instructions were clear and easy to follow. Hardwiring adapter is straightforward. The downside is it is wide and heavy. This made it very difficult to get into position and lined up with the existing flange threads. Our sink has a post between the cabinet doors underneath it that blocks access making the opening very narrow and awkward to reach in. It took me several tries to lift it in and line it up from a seated position on the floor. The rubber grip areas on the sides of the disposal were a welcome feature. Once installed, the fit is secure and vibration is minimal. Connects easily to the dishwasher and plumbing. Really like the vibration-absorbing connector for the drainpipe.

Seems like a good disposal. It is quiet and installation was standard except one thing. Connecting up to AC power the plug clip solution is just stupid. They should just do the standard wire nut connection. My electrical uses 12 gauge wire which made it extremely difficult to get it to bend the way it needed to bend. If you use 14 gauge, you’re OK just really read all the instructions thoroughly and plan ahead. Expect to make a 90° answer for that silly plug.

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.
