Product review (1 stars): Poor product safety support
WARNING! If you purchase this disposer, be prepared to pull out the splash guard (SG) frequently and clean it, i.e. soak it first in bleach and rinse it off and then use a stiff brush to remove putrified material to the SG's underside. I learned the hard way when overwhelmed by the nauseating smell coming from my sink drain. ALSO wear rubber gloves when handling the SGd. You definitely do not want to come in contact with that bacterial gunk clinging to the SG's underside. LASTLY! I find it interesting that with all the comments on this site regarding SG's design nothing has been son to rectify the problem. My GB purchased in January of 2017 is also miserable to use. We have to use a stiff brush to push waste through. Good luck with this product, you have my sympathy if you've purchased one.
