My original disposal in my condo started a leak at the gasket. In doing research on the options I quickly learned most take up a lot of space! I went with this make/model which is essentially an updated version of my original one. Install only took 60 minutes for removal of the old and install of the new! Biggest challenge was getting the snap ring to attach. So far the new disposal is significantly quieter than the original. Price was a good value - same cost with longer warranty than plumber recommended brand!
