Hi.
My 3/4 hp GE sink disposal just died.
If it's not too difficult of a task I'd like to replace it myself (let me
know).
The unit is the kind without a wall switch, you place a drain cover/lid into
the sink notch and press it down to operate.

I'm thinking the hardest part is removing the old unit, and the hardest part
of that is disconnecting the unit from the sink.

Any thoughts/suggestions on degree of difficulty and anything I should watch
for? I'm relatively handy around the house.

Thanks,
Walter

I live in an apartment with an on-site maintenance crew. When my garbage
disposal needed to be replaced, I watched. It looked relatively easy.
The entire process took about 20 minutes. I also helped my dad replace
the garbage disposal in his kitchen and it didn't take much longer. The
directions on how to do it should be included with the disposal.
