This disposer was inexpensive, but after seven years it started a (relatively) slow leak which went undetected. It seeped under our floor tile and now one is loose, and the heated floor stopped working from the moisture - we may have to have the floor redone. What a hassle to save $100! I would never buy Insinkerator again!
Other info:
It was extremely loud.
It made the lights go dim when turned on.
It's poorly designed. It was completely rusty inside, and I saw It had accumulated food goo around the discharge port when I took it off. Now I know why the drain always smelled bad (despite grinding up ice and lemon peels to attempt to clean it).
Even when it's empty - and on - it slowed down the draining of the sink so the incoming water was faster than the drain (we had a completely new kitchen put in with new plumbing so it's not the drain).
Get another brand if you're smart. Insinkerator is a time bomb ticking under your sink.
Pros: - easy to remove when it fails,
  - cheap
Cons: - Not Durable,
  - smells due to food accumulation,
  - slow draining,
  - rusts internally
