I bought and installed this one 16 years ago. This morning about 6:16 am my wife was washing dishes. Opened the cabinet doors underneath the sink. Hey hun! Got a leak. I had just got up. Jumped into action with morning wood. Put on headlamp. Found leak at discharge flange. They call it a anti-vibration tailpipe mount. Dis-assymbled , it was disfigured. In the Inner diameter on the drain discharge was a white plastic piece that extended into the disposal. It was warped from the heat which disfigured the rubber seal. They tell you not to run hot water trough it. Duh! The dish washer runs through the disposal. Goofy don't ya think. It did last 16 years. On a positive for the company. I called them and told them what the problem was. They said they would send a new anti-vibration piece at no charge. Imagine that! Unheard of. Happy wife, happy life.
Hey there, @mikegreen761. Thank you very much for watching and sharing your experience with us. 16 years are pretty impressive for a rubber piece, even a high-quality one. Though I will start warning people about the hot water from the dishwasher. This is valuable information. I assume everything went back to normal once you replaced it with the new one they sent? Wishing you and the wife all the best ^^.
Hi @Mauri6870, thanks for watching ShouldIT. To our knowledge, most sprayer heads on pulldown faucets don't support this. However, you can remove the sprayer head and find an adapter for the hose. Something like this www.amazon.com/dp/B013XV1COU/ could work. Another way would be installing a split valve at the water supply valve so that you have one output for the faucet and another for the washer. Hope this helps. Best of luck ^^.
Please do videos where you are grinding food at their normal speed. It's best to hear each disposal as they really sound. Don't speed them up or put music over the grinding segments. This should be done with each disposal.
Thanks for watching, @jazzcatt-uc6bw. As a matter of fact, what you’re suggesting is more or less what we’ve had multiple discussions about. We debated whether the sound level meter readings accurately reflect the noise level and perception of noise in a typical kitchen. The concern was that our lab, which makes use of a standalone steel sink, couldn’t mirror the average acoustic conditions of a regular kitchen. So we decided to focus on other areas until we could better simulate those conditions. If you’re keen, check out our written reviews where most of our videos are uncut. We may consider uploading all the uncut videos as a series for reference purposes now that you’ve mentioned it. Thanks again for your interest and on-point suggestion. Much love, friend ^^. shouldit.com/garbage-disposals/reviews/insinkerator/insinkerator-badger-5/
Hello, @cynthiathomas8881. Thanks for watching and for your interest. To clarify, this video shows the steps to how we installed the garbage disposals for testing in our lab. Since we needed to frequently swap out mounting assemblies, we avoided using sealants such as caulk or putty and opted for alternative sealing methods. As it turned out, the fiber gasket worked incredibly well for a temporary seal, which is why we decided to share this for referencing purposes. You can check out this video on how we install the Badger 5 using plumbers’ putty with a 3-bolt mounting assembly. We’re sorry for any misunderstanding. Much love ^^. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-PZAZvluYxBc.htmlsi=9D1fyw2H8Q6u4ExZ
I have this , I love it . I had a china made one that was crap it died in 2 days . But Frigidaire is a me ember of the Electrolux family of products . When you say Electrolux you’re saying years of service . Love mine
We didn’t try making nut milk or peanut butter with it, but given the light motor, small feed chute, and tiny containers, it will take a long time and we’re not sure it’s the ideal machine for the job.
Thanks for watching, @rickcook2798. Putty is definitely better. This is just how we set up disposals for our tests. Because we needed to remove and install mount assemblies constantly, we decided to use the included gasket for short-term seal. But it ended up rather solid throughout our testing phase, so we uploaded the process for reference. We do have videos in which we use putty. You can check them out here [ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-PZAZvluYxBc.html]. Much love.

Thank youfor the review. I have and love this electric kettle but my little screen in the pour area came out. I need to reinsert it looks like it just snaps In but difficult to position properly
Thank you watching ❤️. We did find the mesh filter not attach very firmly, but it haven't fallen off on us so it should be fine. We weren't able to find any place that sells replacements but the filter should last for as long as the kettle is cared for.
great review. please add the measurements/dimensions of the product at the beginning in the design segment. A lot of the websites offering these ovens have different measurements
Thanks for the kind words! It was a mistake on our part to not include the measurements in the video. We do have both the hand-taken measurements and the manufacturer's stated ones on our website shouldit.com/toaster-ovens/reviews/instant-pot/instant-omni-plus-18l/
