Whether you’re preparing a week’s worth of groceries or whipping up a midnight snack, you’re almost certainly dealing with leftover food in the kitchen. This is why, when waste disposal units first appeared on the market in the 1930s, Americans were hooked.
Garbage disposals operate by grinding up food waste so that it can easily float down the drain or through sewer lines to your septic tanks, rather than being sent to a landfill to decompose.
Garbage disposals vary in power and price, and which one is best for you varies depending on how many meals you and your family prepare on a regular basis. Because of its two-part grinding system, our top choice, the InSinkErator Garbage Disposal, can manage large quantities of food.
To figure out the best options, here are a few of the best garbage disposals.
