With the one worthless one, an appliance dealer finally told me to get one with more horsepower that cost $129 installed at the time, and we've never had a problem since with any disposals we've owned.

Apparently the plumbers and others who condemn all garbage disposals have not ever awakend on trash collection day to find that animals tore open the plastic bags to get food and meat scraps etc. in there......and now your rotting, dripping, stinking, ugly trash is strewn all the way up and down the street and in neighbors' yards. THAT is why garbage disposals are to be used!!
