Our street of CYV's is 7 years old, and just about every home has had their disposal quit working in the past year, I think we were the last. So those with new homes, keep 6-7 years in mind. Ours started leaking water out of the bottom is why I changed ours out, the plumber said that hot water will eventually cause them to leak. The new Badger units come with the wrench to loosen the nut on the bottom if necessary. I did look at some videos on Youtube, but figured it was worth $100 to not have to worry about it being right.
