Review: Love the insinkerators, no more scrapping scraps into the bin!!! - Needed a replacement for my old insinkerator, which had lasted years! Didn't want the newer model with the push button start as just wanted a straight swap. Fitted perfectly, although I had a plumber it as a bit heavy for us oldies to lift into place! Hope this one lasts,as long as my previous one. Really missed t, the few days I had to wait till I could get it installed!
Review: Great appliance! - Easy to fit and very efficient!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Impeccable
*by T***S on 19 December 2022*

My InSinkrator 45 ran out of order probably due to age. I bought the recent Model 46 and attempted to install by myself. Initially, I feared that I would fail as I have never done this before. Surprisingly, it was very easy to dismantle the old one and replace it with the new one. Even the drain pipe connection was impeccable. I didn’t need to make any alteration although I bought a separate pipes kit as well. The new InSinkarator is now working beautifully. No leakage of water nor any defect due to my amateurish workmanship. The Owner’s Manual is self-explanatory and very easy to follow. If you are thinking of replacing your existing InSinkarator with a new, you had better buy the Model closest to the existing one. It will save you a lot of hassles and money.
