"Give it to The King"

After several months of friendly reminders that the old, cheap garbage disposal was on its last leg, I started doing what every sensible nerd does... that's right, you guessed it: RESEARCH! Yes, in this day and age you can research garbage disposals on the internet till your heart's content. Of course what the major hardware stores carry is utter crap and grossly overpriced, so with my exhaustive and extensive reading I came across a company called Waste King, and how aptly named it is.

Since money is always a concern, I went with the $120 version called the Waste King Legend Series 3200. All the Legend Series disposals are good, and they handle whatever you throw at them. The price difference is based on your warranty and how fast the disposal will demolish whatever you just fed it.

This is our old disposal. It is a sad excuse of a disposal. I was glad to get rid of it.

It had to go because we were at a point of putting nothing down there for fear of a clog. Not to mention every time you ran it, it sounded like marbles were being chewed on. After the wiener dogs kept running away when we turned it on, Waste King came to the rescue.

Here's a picture of the installed product.

We went from a 1/3HP to a 3/4HP, full stainless steel innards, 2700rpm of raw power. Installation took about 45 minutes, roughly double what it should have taken me, but that's how things go the first time around.

We now throw anything and everything at "The King" because we know he never complains and always does his job. Whenever we question if we should throw it in the garbage disposal or in the trash, the answer is almost always "give it to The King!"
