Has anyone else encountered a cracked PVC housing on one of those cheapie

whacking the housing, but you never know.

ANY hard object, or even an small piece can blow out a hole or make a crack
in the outer housing, no matter how much you watch what you put in there.
I've replaced two with dime sized holes blown in them, and never did see the
offending particle.

I remember from my yoot, maybe around 1950, going to a home show with my
folks and watching a salesman demo a garbage disposer on a display table.

There was no water used, but the sales guy kept dropping glass marbles
into the running disposer and a few seconds later powdered glass came
out of the discharge tube.

Undoubtedly it was NOT a machine with a PVC upper housing back then. G

Ah...did you say "yoot"? What's a yoot? ;-)

One of the characters ibn that movie consistantly mispronounced "youth"
as "yoot".
