Product review (1 stars): Awful design!
One reviewer noticed that this particular guard holds silverware very well and does not let it fall in the garbage disposal.  This is very true - my observation is the same.  I would add another observation - it hold very well EVERYTHING, including dirty water and food particles.  Water simply stays regardless of my running the disposal - almost defying laws of physics.  So several times a day I need to reach in the sink full of dirty dishes to press on the guard with something to let dirty water drain - not the best time of my day.

This guard is very poorly designed - from its shape that takes majority of the disposal opening to its material that is too stiff.  The only positive is its installation ease. Unfortunately I could not find a better option for my Waste King failed guard replacement - I will probably replace the whole unit to get the proper working integrated stop guard.
