The Badger® 5XP™ model provides more power and a longer warranty than the Badger® 5 or Badger® 1. InSinkErator Badger® food waste disposers are a reliable and functional choice when affordability is the prime concern. Choose from three models, each with a space-saving compact design. If you prefer a higher level of grind performance, and significantly quieter operation, check out the Evolution™ Series Disposers. With an InSinkErator® food waste disposer in your kitchen, chicken bones, fruit rinds, coffee grounds and more can go right in the sink -- where they're virtually liquefied to safely flow into your sewage system or septic tank. You'll enjoy a cleaner food preparation area, and less bagged garbage cluttering your home. What's more, if you've never owned a food waste disposer, you're in for a pleasant surprise. InSinkErator® disposers are economical to operate: in fact, they're among the least expensive installed kitchen appliances.

Comments about Insinkerator Badger 5XP™ - Powerful Space Saving Compact Disposer:

Garbage disposals MUST have rust-proof grinding chamber components, such as stainless steel, NEVER galvanized steel! Galvanized steel grinder turntables will RUST out very quickly, because once they get the slightest nick in the 'armor' plating, they then start to rust away. And soon thereafter, you will wonder why you keep needing to snake your drain! In the case of the Badger 5, after as little as 2 years, the turntable starts getting openings that let un-ground food escape down the drain, and then clog your pipe.

Galvanized steel ---> BAD!
Stainless steel ---> GOOD!

This was just what the doctor orderd. Installed on my existing drain clamp. Only small issue was that the drain hole knock out had to be drilled instead of tapped through as depicted in instructions.
