      Q:Does the power cord come Separately. Or does this come with one? Because there are two options Disposer only and power cord. How do I know which option to choose if I am replacing my garbage disposal, I have at home already.

      Answer This Question

      A:  Hi Zeus, thank you for the question. The power cord is not included in the disposal. If your old disposal is plugged into an outlet, you have to buy a power cord separately. If you need further assistance, you can reach out to us at https://support.insinkerator.com/app/ask.

                    A:  Hi Minerva, thank you for your inquiry. The model number 1-87 is also our disposer model Badger 1. You can ignore the -87, as it is only an engineering number. The Badger 1 disposer has the same dimensions and connection under the sink as your current disposer, making it easy to replace.
