I had read or seen somewhere that the majority of kitchen sink disposal
units were made by a single company and it didn't matter too much in
agonizing over the various different manufacturers. Perhaps it was the
motor manufacturer.

Anyone know anything about this?

Thanks,
Walter

Whirlpool owns In Sink Erator and Kitchen Aid and they are all the same,
aside from cosmetics. I don't know about Badger.

Badger is (was?) the low end of InSinkErator

I would suggest an InSinkErator 555SS or better.....I changed over to
many InSinkErator's over the years, had good luck with all (except
Badger, a contractor special, which was typically the unit being
replaced)

The nice thing about going over to InSinkErator is that it makes
subsequent replacements a snap...... can be done in less than 15
minutes.
