It does its job very well.
Easy to install if you have done it before, I have never done one before, so it took me about 3 hours. The most difficult part was lifting the disposal with one hand while trying to tighten the collar with the other, that did not go well. What I ended up doing was using a bottle jack, used for jacking up a car when it has a flat, I placed the unit on the jack and slowly jacked it up until it just held against the sink, don't go pump it past that point you could bend your sink, then I was able to use both hands to tighten the collar ring. A floor jack could have worked, but they are a lot larger leaving less room to work under the sink.The disposal came with everything you need, you will need to get a small tub of plumber putty, it's like a clay-like consistency, you need to make it into a rope about 1/2 an inch in diameter according to the directions, but mine failed the first time, so I took the putty off and reused it again but this time I added more so the rope was about an inch thick. Once you have it secured and tightened you just pull off the excess and put it back into the little bucket, but it probably won't stay fresh for more than 3 to 6 months.Another tricky area is the drain pipe coming out of the disposal matching up to the house drain, while mine wasn't bad, though doing it for the first time did cause a bit of an unexpected headache, I had to cut about 1/4 inch of the house drain pipe to make the two come together. In that process you should not use the old rubber gasket that joins the two together, you should buy a new one, so back to the store I went to get a new one. I also found out I needed a pipe wrench so I could loosen up a part of the drain pipe to swivel it out of the way, then move it back into position and retighten it.Functioning-wise, it is quiet for a 1-horsepower motor, it's quieter than our old 1/2 horsepower was by a little bit. It doesn't vibrate like crazy when running, it is very smooth running. It's a very good disposal.How does this disposal compare to others? I don't have a clue, never installed any others, our old one was a 20 or so-year-old Waste King, that's all I can compare it to.Almost all the disposals on the market are made in China, this one was made in Cambodia even though the internet says USA.

Works Great!!!
This was easy to install and get working. It comes with everything you need to install it as well. For the price it is perfect and fairly quiet for a garbage disposal. There are quieteer ones I am sure for for the price it is great.

Outstanding - exactly what we hoped for - but a little loud
As noted above, this does everything we hoped - and missed - for a long time. It easily deals with food, skin, meat, bones, fruit, and everything else. It even will return stickers on fruit which jammed the former one we had.For those coming from other disposals, we used the same mounting and ring. The Moen rubber gasket and very substantial drain plug both fit perfectly - better, in fact, than the original ones.If there is only one criticism, it's noise, but if you only have to run this for 2 seconds, noise becomes less of an issue. And, ironically, it has become quieter with more stuff now inside it... oddly.For reference, this replaced a 2013-model Insinkerator purchased at Home Depot.That was, we thought, a newer model of the best disposal we owned. Deep, effective, and quiet.But the one we had was awful and did nothing for a decade.

Very good product, mid-range noise
I researched many disposals and chose this one for the lower price and higher HP (horse power.) Installation was straightforward. If you use the metal drain insert, you must use plumbers putty.It is not a quiet disposal, but it is not very loud. This 1hp unit makes about the same amount of noise as my old 1/3hp Whirlaway!

Great garbage disposal
So far this has been a great disposal. It's very nice looking, which in my opinion doesn't matter since you can't see it, but if you happen to open the doors under your sink, it looks very modern. It was easy to install, works great so far and is much quieter than our old one. Despite what any company claims, it's a garbage disposal, it's going to be noisy considering what it does. I also like the rubber piece for the inlet, it is stiff enough and designed in a way that it prevents silverware from just dropping in. Our old one you always had to check because they would just drop in and you almost couldn't see them.

Excellent choice
I purchased a home that did not have a garbage disposal. I think I assumed they are all the same and bought a badger series which fine for a year or so. then I started having problems that got worse over time. At first, it was just an occasional jam, which was easy enough to fix, then it started jamming every time I used it. I tried everything as resetting on the bottom of the disposal only worked for a short while. Then I noticed a leak on the bottom of the disposal and the inside had rusted out completely in the corners. All this in about 2 years! This time I did my research. There were two disposals that fit my needs. I don’t need a commercial disposal, but I definitely needed more than a 1/4HP that won’t grind some every day items. It came down to this disposal and the same one I’m replacing. I definitely wasn’t going there again. This is actually a far better disposal. It offers quite a bit more horsepower, will grind almost anything, it’s very quiet and even smaller than my original disposal. It’s just made better too, the gaskets were better quality and output is in a more logical place. It grinds completely, no residual at all in the disposal, so there’s never smell either! It's about time! I was a little concerned at first, due to my previous experience as there is no reset button on the bottom of the unit as Moen states this product doesn’t jam. Knock on wood, I haven’t had a single jam or problem at all! Plus, I felt it was easier to install and I even replaced the sink mount, all on my own. I am incredibly happy with this garbage disposal. It has saved my family and I much heartache and money. My plumbers a little sad, but at least he has more time on his hands now. He didn’t have any experience with this model garbage disposal by Moen, but said he is now a fan and will be recommending this model from now on. Another plus, it was the same price as the previous disposal, but considerably more powerful. Best purchase I’ve made in a long time!

Precio y marca
Es muy buena marca, el triturador superó mis expectativas aunque la marca estampada en la brida deja mucho que desear... está muy abollada ....

Easy to install.
Product was as described. It arrived in a timely manner. Easy to install. The initial quality appears good, wouldn't expect anything else from Mowen.As quiet as any other unit I have heard. Only time will tell if this well and reliable.For now, highly recommended.

American voltage and frequency
This product is not suitable for UK and yet, it was not stated anywhere in the product details that it has American voltage. We were about to install it when discovered American plug. Such a waste of money

TRITURADOR DE BASURA MOEN
De las mejores marcas de enseres para el hogar. No hace ruido, pareciera que no hace nada. No es para instalarlo uno mismo, recomiendo que lo haga un plomero profesional.
