Spend a little extra and get better quality

There is never anything easy when you're working under a sink. The collar that attaches the disposal to the drain mount is awkward. You have to line up to small tabs through the collar and press it upward, keeping it inline while rotating the collar to lock. It takes a lot of strength and coordination. All the parts are plastic except the locking collar which is cheap galvanized steel. I've had two Kenmore disposals 3/4 and 1/2 HP before this one. I wish I would have went back with Kenmore. The noise level is fine except for the initial rotation that slaps the little rotating grinders against the inside frame of the disposal. Metal on metal ( Yikes! ). I only bought this one because the ratings were high ( 4.5 out of 5 ) with several thousand reviews. You get what you pay for ... I wouldn't buy this one again but for the money I will be happy with it until it breaks and then I will go back to Kenmore.
