Customer Reviews for InSinkErator Kitchen Sink Flange in Oil Rubbed Bronze for InSinkErator Garbage Disposal

My plumber installed it so I don't know if it is easy to install but it matches the faucet, soap dispenser and garbage disposal button very well.

The black is already chipping off after 11 months. Very poor quality. Don’t buy this unless you plan on replacing it every year.

This a replacement for original purchased in November. White coating peeled. Hopefully this one will bot have the same defect.

I have punched two of these instant hot water tanks. The first one was fine for three months, then it leaked under the sink slowly causing mold and mildew and damaged the floor under the sink and kitchen. I took it back where I purchased it and they told me they couldn’t help me as I did not purchase the extra warranty at the time of purchase..I waited about six months and wanted to try another unit thinking maybe it was just that unit and soooooo I perched another as the sales person said they quit making the units with plastic bladder. They were stainless steel bladders now. After less than a year and two plumbers later it leaked a unplugged it and put a bowl under the unit to let it finish draining so that it would not damage anything else. Lowe’s said they had just too many problems with them and quit carrying them.

The faucet stuck in the ON position early on. Some WD-40 took care of it for a while so I ignored it for a year. Now it won't shut off. There is a post on how to fix this but its no easy task as the faucet must be removed from the counter. I will try it but the design is bad. In a kitchen, dirt and debris will eventually get into the button and stop its ability to pop up.

Remodeled my kitchen early this spring and was so happy to have found a matching matte blank sink flange but while cleaning with just soap and dish towel a large chunk of the coating just came off. Would like to replace but not sure this product is worth the price tag a second time around if its only gonna last 3 months. Is there any warranty on this product?!

We purchased this in September 2020 during our kitchen remodel. We had a black sink installed and wanted this seamless look. We have always had a protective steel grid in the sinks to protect them, so it was truly disappointing to see that the paint has started to flake off of this flange after only 5 months! There are only two of us in the home and we rarely cook so I have no idea why this flange is starting to flake away. This product definitely has not lived up to our expectations.

The black finish only lasted about 6 months, now its starting to peel. We keep a rack in the bottom of our sink so nothing even touches the black sink flange. Don't buy unless you want to replace every 6 months.

Looks good to start but within a few short months..... surprise.... the finish will flake off. Complete junk

Only in use for a few months in my kitchen sink and has a very large chip in the Matt Black finish. Not sure how much it will cost to replace a $25 part. Note: We have a sink in the garage so no harsh chemicals have been used.

Great piece, perfect paint match to our new Moan Faucet. Chipped the first week we had it, what a pain!

Ordered Black to go with my sink. After paying a plumber to install it, very expensive, not 3 months later, a large piece of the plastic? coating chipped off. I had no idea what I was putting in my sink. A cheap piece of junk that will ultimately cost me another $150 to replace. I do not use anything abrasive to clean my sink, as it is a black granite sink. If I had I feel like I would have known within a couple weeks. Extremely angry about this.

These are not cheap, bought in September had remodeling done end of October and already some came off. I am not using anything harsh down my drain.. Really disapointed

We remodeled our entire kitchen. I incorrectly relied on the insinkerator brand as being of higher quality. The oil-rubbed color was cheaply painted on and began to chip almost immediately. Foir months later: see picture. Just keeps peeling away. The flange is $30 and not easy to replace. And why replace it when it's just going to fail again.

Even though there are reviews mentioning the sticky button, in my case the sticky button caused the faucet to drip a little, but I have managed to fix it in a simple way. See the attached pictures for more details. In nutshell: take apart the faucet starting with the small screws and plastic spacer. Keep in mind that the button does not have any spring inside, so the solution is to tighten a little bit the inner metal cylinder (assume the main valve) with the little thread (less than a full round). It is marked with red on one of the pictures. Assemble the faucet and check if the button sticks or the faucet leaks. If not, you are ready.

I was replacing an older Insinkerator hot water dispenser and wanted to add filtration. I thought this might be a little tricky but was pleasantly surprised. The dispenser model I ordered was the "Invite H-Contour." I already had the 1/4" fitting from the old dispenser so it was just a matter of mounting the dispenser bracket and routing hoses. The quick-connect fittings concerned me, they seemed too simple to work. I slid the included plastic hose into the inlet side, and connected it to the valve with the supplied insert, ferrule and nut. On the outlet side, I slid in the copper pipe directly from the dispenser itself. This is one area the instructions were a little unclear. There's a Y-adapter included with the filter and it says to use the included plug with a hot-only dispenser. Reading more closely, it turns out it is needed only for the dispensers with the faucets that have levers or push buttons. Their water inlet is slightly different. For the H-Contour the copper pipe goes directly into the filter head piece. At any rate, the hardest part was mounting the bracket roughly level, and hand-bending the copper pipe from the dispenser head to curve smoothly into the bracket.

Had this installed with our new black sink in March. It’s July and the paint is already peeling.

I’ve only had the sink flange in for a little over a week, and I noticed it’s a little discolored already.

Easy install, great value

I love the color and looks beautiful in new sink but it is already peeling off to stainless. Very disappointed to replace is not easy.

bought this item about 6 months ago. has started to peel already.no harsh chemicals were used & less than normal use as it is only my wife & I. do not recommend this product unless you plan on replacing twice a year.

After about 16 months of use, the rubbed bronze finish is flaking off.

I have owned several of these over 20 plus years. The dispenser is an excellent addition to the kitchen. Over time, they do wear out. However, still a good value.

Loved the look of this with my espresso Blanco sink until finish started peeling yesterday. I'm use only 11 months. Not sure whether to try another one or try touch up paint.

The Insinkerator is a replacement for another brand of instant hot water tank and dispensor. A number of years back we had an Insinkerator and loved it. Went with a different brand because we liked there dispenser/faucet and it matched the kitchen faucet better. I regretted that decision. When the other brand's tank started leaking, I replaced everything with Insinkerator (tank, filter, and dispenser). Better water temp control, larger capacity, faster heating on refill, quieter, and smoother operation of faucet. We use this product every day--love it for hot drinks and starting any cooking with hot water. Love the 3 yr warranty of Insinkerator

Makes the sink look really cool!!! Drain is perfect.

Total junk. This was just installed two weeks ago and already there are leaks, and the button sticks and water keeps running. Waste of money. See attached image...button sticks and water runs continuously.

I bought this in May 2017. January 2018 and the black is chipping off of it. I expected it to last way longer than that!

Purposely bought a black quartz sink and this flange. Looked GREAT for about two months. Then the black started flaking off. Don't know what to do, since replacing this with a ss flange will look wrong.
