4 out of 5 stars It works, but not as quiet as I thought it would be   August 24, 2008
I just finished the install of this, took me about 2 hours. I was replacing a badger5, about 10 years old, and was pretty noisy. I had high hopes that this would be super silent, and my biggest disappointment is it's still pretty noisy.

The install instructions were pretty good. The power cord thing is really annoying, make sure you deal with this before you install (make sure you have it!) and buy some plumbers putty.

I am not a plumber, and it was a little nerve wracking to install, the wife is still questioning whether there are any leaks, but it seems ok.

Overall, it looks nice, works fine, but I was unimpressed with how much less quiet it was than the Badger 5.



5 out of 5 stars Good Price, Easy Install, and Quiet   August 22, 2008
It is a great product at an unbelievable price. The hardest part about installing this product was removing the old disposal.

There is one item that is not included in the box you will need to get if it is not on the old disposal. You will need an electrical clamp connector.

Once installed, the disposal is almost silent when running.



1 out of 5 stars Don't Plan on the Evo Compact Being a Simple Replacement   July 25, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

just bought an Evolution Compact disposal as a replacement for an OLD Kenmore disposal - the Kenmore was noisy and finally gave up the ghost yesterday with smoke from a burned-out motor! The InSinkErator Evolution Compact seemed to be a good fit and easy replacement - I had recently replaced the sink with a top quality deep stainless model and planned on just a simple replacement...out with the old and in with the new. Got the old one out and, on installation, I find the InSinkErator does not provide an electrical line strain relief (this should be a UL complaint!). So that was another part needed from the hardware store. Then on trying to connect to the drain, I find that the InSinkErator has a tiny 4 inch long curved discharge tube...off to a hardware store for a slip-over PVC extension and PVC cement to make it fit. Couldn't use the old chrome/brass curved discharge tube because in an apparent effort to isolate vibrations or reduce noise, this disposal has - not the usual discharge fitting - but a cheap rubber discharge mount with a flimsy spring-type hose clamp...and these ONLY fit their discharge tubes with a very tiny lip on the end. Though installed - and yes, it's pretty quiet - I am not impressed with this item, and it's lack of what should be standard installation components. It was NOT a simple replacement!


5 out of 5 stars Exceeds Expectations   July 7, 2008
I am the sort who reads consumer reports and online product reviews before making a decision -- even about a garbage disposal. This seems to be a fine product. I had read someone who said it was so quite they thought it wasn't working. I thought, "yea, right." But then the same thing happened to me. When I first turned it on (without waste the first time), I had to look to be certain it was even functioning. One quick caution -- I also had to use larger wire nuts than the ones that came with the electrical connection kit. Also, there seem to be two versions of the evolution disposal out there. I have seen both a 5/8 hp and a 3/4 hp by the same name at two major competing home supply retailers. I have the 3/4hp from Amazon. While I suspect they are both fine, you will want to be aware of what you are getting.


5 out of 5 stars Is It On???   June 30, 2008
I would recommend this disposer to anyone! It is incredibly quiet and very easy to install. You will need another person to hold the unit while you make the plumbing connections...not a big deal. The whole process took about an hour and a half, and I HATE plumbing. I checked prices at all of the "home improvement" stores and the Amazon price was the best. If this unit fits your needs...BUY IT!!
