Q:Is the interior stainless steel? If not, will the inside rust?
by|Apr 28, 2024
1 Answer
Answer This Question

A:  Hi Kelly! Badger 5 garbage disposal gas has galvanized steel grinding components. These components are coated with corrosion-resistant zinc and do not begin to discolor until this coating wears away.

          Easy replacement of same model
          I bought this to replace the same brand & model that was leaking out the bottom of the disposal. I just swapped out the disposal unit, keeping the existing sink connection. The nice part about that was the bayonet style attachment - just push up and twist to lock it in. The only bad part was that I had ordered the version that does not come with a power cord, expecting to reuse the existing cord. (It looked like it just plugged in.) However I was unable to get that out of the old unit.

            Not as expected
            In places we've previously lived, the garbage disposal could handle banana peels and even cantaloupe rinds. We haven't tried rinds, but banana peels don't go down due to the fibers in the peel. It becomes like a "hairball" and then it makes the disposal loud. I have to dig out the hairball after each time. I wish I had known this as I would have kept the old one which was 15 years old and handled banana peels, etc. just fine.

            Hi, thank you for your feedback, and we're sorry to hear that your unit is not performing up to your expectations. While disposers can handle most food waste, fibrous items may get caught in the grind chamber. To help grind these items in the future, try to add some hard food waste, such as fruit pits or bones. Excessive amounts of peel being ground at once should be avoided. For more fibrous materials, we recommend an Evolution or Advanced series disposer that has advanced grinding capabilities.
              Think was my first time putting in a garbage disposal, was easier than expected. Work great.

              Good brand but I did not like this style.
              It came with the rim on the disposer crooked and had a hard time locking it back in place, finally worked, next time probably buy different style

                Direct replacement for whirlpool 1/2 go gc2000. You will need to possibly remove/grind off a tab on the lock ring or reuse gc2000 lock ring / without tab. No mention in the instructions for this offending tab or it’s removal

                it broke in 1.5 years
                After purchasing it on August 2, 2022, and today is February 3, 2024 just a year and a half later, the this version of incinerator is completely broken unable to be fixed. It makes a crazy noise. What appears to have happened is that the two blades Have come loose. This is nothing that the consumer can repair. Now, there appears to be a four year warranty, but who do you contact? There’s no contact information and it appears it would be easier just to purchase a new ine. Garbage disposals should last at least 10 years. I tried to upload a video to let you know how loud the sound is, but Home Depot does not appear ro provide this option.

                  Great but it's time for improvement
                  I've have always bought InSinkerator Garbage Disposals. The work very well. The last one failed after 8+ years and failed because of a leak in the metal diaphragm (seal) that separate the grinding chamber and the electric motor (highlighted in yellow in the attached. InSinkerator has now come out with variants with stainless steel grinding components, but those are useless for the type of use in my house (I never had an issue with the galvanized grinding components). Can InSinkerator develop a Badger 5 version with Stainless Steel diaphragm (seal)? If not, It's time for me to start exploring alternative brands. Thanks

                    Easy to setup, works well
                    This Bader 5 disposer was pretty straight forward to setup and easy to use. Solidly made and lasts long. Pretty quiet for this version and grinds trash very well. Fits in existing installation of older Badger replacement with ease.

                      Badger is very Smart: Lift and Latch Technology!
                      I was replacing an 11 year old Badger-1 since it stopped working. It had a one year warranty and it ran for 11 years, which is a great bonus. Since I purchased exactly the same item the installation was so easy; under 10 minutes. (I did not have to replace the old Sink Flange, I used the existing one). I also saved some time and money since it came with the power cord assembled. I really do appreciate the "Lift and Latch" technology: it was so easy and I felt so good.

                        My other badger disposal leaked a long time ago. It was the cheapest one and only lasted 6 years. This one is made from stainless steel so I hope it lasts longer
