this disposer made me do the happy dance December 2, 2007

My husband installed this and after two hours of headache he realized he had a piece of pipe upside down. After that it was smooth! So installation aside, this disposer is AWESOME! After living in two homes with loud scary sounding disposers this is a dream! I literally danced with joy! My husband and I both have turned it on a few times just to hear how quiet it is. It is truly much quiter than a standard model.
Nice! November 25, 2007

Simple installation, did it myself in less than 15 min including opening the box and reading the directions. Super quiet operation, you can't even tell if it is running. Replaced older ISE.
 Works great, takes lots of space December 30, 2006

I recently purchased one of these and am pleased with the power, capacity, versatility, and especially the quiet operation. However, the installation was more than i had anticipated.
Assuming that you are replacing another disposer that is more than a few years old, you should be prepared to replace much of the surrounding hardware including the dishwasher anti-siphon valve, hose, and clamps. This disposer does not come with a power cord and the instructions direct you to use the one from your old unit. In fact, you will probably need to buy a new cord made specifically for the ISE, especially if your old disposer is another make; ISE's have a special strain-relief clamp which will prevent the cord from being yanked out. While you're under the sink you may as well check for leaks, replace the contact paper and patch any drywall knocks that have happened over the years.
The real gotcha with the Evolution Series is that it's wider than most other models, which means that you'll probably need to cut and realign PVC drain pipes to make it fit. For me this involved 3-dimensional measurements, trigonometry, and second-guessing about why somebody before me installed drain pipe that way in the first place. The wider body of the Evolution also means you will have less under-sink storage space available, which might be the difference between keeping a trash container down there or not.
ISE also makes a lower-capacity Evolution model that is just as powerful and has dimensions more similar to their Badger line. If i had it to do again, i would have gotten the smaller one instead and hopefully avoided the PVC work. Still, this is a great disposer now that it's in place.
