Can someone advise. I’ve been looking to install a waste disposal unit in my new kitchen but I’ve never seen one in action (apart from the horror scenes in the films). I went online to look at some videos of them working and in each video, the actress stuck her fingers into the plug hole area when feeding the waste into the waste disposal unit. My question – isn’t there blades or something here. Does the word dangerous spring to mind? I’m also concerned if a child pressed the air switch and put their hands in the plug hole. Is there some sort of safety aspect to this, such as a cover or something?
Also, does anyone know which model is best either the InSinkErator 75 or Franke Turbo WD-1001. They are both continueous feed, air switch included but the Franke has 1 horsepower compared to the Insinkerator which is 0.75 hoursepower but there is also the aspect of noise. Does anyone know these products?
We have had an Insinkerator for 10 years no problems. It is continuous feed. The switch to activate it is high up on the wall and a child would not be able to reach it anyway. There are no blades as such but, of course, if you pushed your hand in you could hurt yourself. Again a child would have to get a chair to stand on and lean into the sink and still reach the bottom of the disposal, a small child would not manage that. I live in UK but Insinkerator is a US brand so they must be the same in US. Our regulations state the switch must be so far from the sink and from the disposal unit itself. No need to worry.
