New kitchen is in the post, do we want a waste disposal unit or are

Well worth it but don't get a weedy one and make sure you have a
pneumatic switch at the front of the sink.

We had one in our last place, but not this one.

I miss it. Would get one but for our Dickensian plumbing.

Had a Bosch unit for 15 years. No trouble. Doesn't like nails and
