Thanks for reassurances or pointing out possible problems!

Personally Id go for a solid surface type sink but its just
preference.
Dump the Sears crap and get a real disposal. A 1 hp model.
In-Sink-erator works just fine.http://www.insinkerator.com/product/...6&template=hhd
It will all fit just fine with the amount of plumbing fittings
available out there.

If you were trying to put a deeper sink into an existing location, it
could be a problem, depending on how far below the sink the waste pipe
coming out of the wall is. Since you're moving the sink, it should
not be a problem. The disposal will have a diagram that shows the
mounting limitations and the plumber can handle it. If you need to
consider other models, they should be available at the manufacturers
website.

3/4 hp is fine, I've never had one more powerful and never had any
problems.
