Best Garbage Disposal on The Market? | Real Plumber Tests

[@GoatzombieBubba]

You need the Tim the Toolman Taylor special - gas powered 2 stroke disposal that can eat up tree branches...

[@b.powell3480]

Yeah, you're talking about the Binford 2500 garbage disposal!!, lol 😆

[@andyruse4670]

Please use your see thru p traps the next time you test these. It’s great to see it grind all the food into small pieces, but it’d be more satisfying to see what stuff builds up in a p trap.

[@RogerWakefield]

Good idea!

[@b.powell3480]

Hi Roger, you need to install the new Binford 2500 model garbage disposal!!, more power! Lol 😆

[@tagalong2313]

We just had a Insink rep in to talk about the changes to the units. We collectively voiced our displeasure and frustration with new changes to the Contractor 333 and Insink Pro750 for the ridiculous additions of putting a wire harness (instead of hardwiring like always). It so frustrating. With these changes and fighting with the units, last one took me nearly 3 hours to install. We’re pissed.

[@josef.hernandez9781]

I’ve done a couple. First one took me super long as I read the manual through to make sure I was doing it right but the second one went rather quickly. Once you know the measurements you need to cut the wires to (it says on the manual the exact size) you can fly through an install the same way you would a regular disposal

[@varanidguy]

I never thought I'd get FOMO from a garbage disposal, yet here I am. lol

[@RogerWakefield]

You gotta get yourself one!

[@deankay4434]

Garbage disposals are plastic or pot metal tops are themselves garbage. The rotating hammer strikes the stationary anvil that is mild steel. It rusts up, swelling and cracking the upper housing creating a leak while guaranteeing a future sale!

[@guitar1301]

Code in NJ states that any solid waste needs to discharge into a pipe no smaller than 3" would never install in my house, but it's easy money when these jam and clog

[@colossalbreacker]

Just snake it if it clogs, which it never really does unless your plumbing is crappy. Even then snaking it is more convenient than not having it

[@BigBear--]

I'll be honest, I hate that InSinkerator calls the Pro 1250 a "4-Stage" grinder. It's realistically still the same 3-stage: grind ring, lug plate, and undercutter disk, grind system. They just add a "wiper" element to wipe the sides down underneath the undercutter disk. So the "4th stage" isn't an actual grinder/cutter element. It doesn't actually cut/grind anything down finer than the 3-stage units. Maybe it helps with some odor build up over time, though to be honest, as long as you occasionally clean your disposal (with some baking soda), it's not an issue on the 3-stage units. Don't get me wrong, there are other benefits to the Pro 1250, like the uprated motor, and longer warranty. I just don't like the gimmick of calling it a 4-stage grinder, because it implies better grinding performance than the 3-stage...

[@BigBear--]

I'm curious about the performance and feature differences between the Advanced Series Pro 1250, and the Pro 1100XL. Besides the Pro 1250 having that extra "wiping" arm at the bottom of the grinder, seems the 1100XL actually has more features. Or am I wrong? The Pro 1100XL has that jam sensor that ups the torque up to 500% if it senses something not grinding, and it auto-reverses to clear jams.

[@b.powell3480]

Just another test, chopping up rhubarb stalks !!!!, now that would be a great test !!!

[@RogerWakefield]

Good suggestion!

Many sanitary sewer authorities would like you not to use these due to FOG issues.

Are these ok for septics?

[@RogerWakefield]

We're on a septic here at The Outhouse

Is this an ad?

[@RogerWakefield]

Did it seem like an ad to you?

[@arthurragan1332]

Yeah it does but if you honestly believe in the product I'm ok with that. I use your videos all the time to learn more about plumbing products and techniques. Thank you for the content

[@arthurragan1332]

​@@RogerWakefield just curious, do you recommend scraping dishe scraps into garbage disposal or is it really just for scraps that end up in there

[@eduardojvivas]

So basically its a juicer

[@mc-sp8zr]

Juice can be a lot of things if you're brave enough.

[@NinjAsylum]

Personally I dont think a 'quiet' disposal is a good thing. They should be loud AF so you know they're running.

[@heystarfish100]

My garbage can works faster, requires no electricity and is ultra quiet. 🤣🤣🤣

[@RogerWakefield]

How is it powered then?

@@RogerWakefield There's no way in hell they didn't pay you to do that video. No plumber would ever recommend installing one of these things.

[@RogerWakefield]

Do people not use disposals where you live? They are pretty common here in Texas, and it's common for plumbers to install and maintain these...

[@colossalbreacker]

​​@@bradallen8909it's too convenient to not have. I would snake the drain regularly if that's what it took to use it, but the reality is as long as your plumbing doesn't suck it wont clog.

@@RogerWakefield They are very, very uncommon in Australia. I've never known anyone who has had one. They're pretty much redundant as the council provides a bin for food & garden waste.
