Garbage Disposals

I dislike garbage disposals all they do is add a failure point and their are plenty of other ways to dispose of waste. IE the trash or better yet compost it.

I refuse to install them in my rentals, actually I take them out.

When my mother's garbage disposer stopped working, she insisted I not replace it and just put in a conventional drain pipe. Our family composts waste. We have no need for garbage disposers.

In a rental I'd definitely remove them. Who knows what people will do.

For people with properly operating sewage systems, they can be nice to get rid on non-compostable food solids when cleaning dishes. The latest higher end insinkerator units are super quiet, you can hardly hear them running if not chomping some hard thing. We had to get a short one for our fireclay kitchen sink and it works great.
