I bought and installed the disposal myself to replace a broken disposal yesterday. It was very easy to install. I was able to use the universal hardware like the label said. I like that it is more quiet than the old one ever was, and that it is more compact than the old one and other brands are. I wish that this 1/2hp model was equipt with Stainless Steel grinding components. (Although I couldn't find any other 1/2hp brands with SS grinding components) The price is competitive with other 1/2hp brands. So far I am pleased with my purchase. Knowing the quality of MOEN products made me more comfortable with my purchase.
