Experience a More Powerful Grind
Featuring an energy-efficient, high-speed, 2,700 RPM 'Vortex' permanent magnet motor, the Legend 3300 offers more power per pound than comparative disposers. This 3/4-horsepower motor will grind the toughest foods, and it requires 115 volts, 60 Hertz, and 6.0 current-amps to operate.

Jam-Free, Mess-Free Feeds
The Legend 3300 is a continuous-feed disposer, which means you can add waste while the unit runs. Stainless steel swivel impellers reduce jamming, and an easily removable splash guard keeps things tidy. A front-mounted reset button allows for simple operation.

Grinding Components Minimize Noise and Wear
Because the Legend 3300's grinding chamber is made of glass-filled nylon, you will never have to worry about corrosion. Also, the stainless steel grinding components are insulated, so you'll get the quietest grind possible.

Easy Installation; Works with Septic Tanks
The Waste King Legend 3300 includes a fast-and-easy mount system, with all the necessary hardware for no-hassle installation. The disposer is safe for properly sized septic tanks and comes with a 36-inch power cord.

Ten-Year In-Home Service Warranty
The Waste King Legend 3300 is backed by a limited mechanical warranty. This means that if your disposer develops a material or mechanical defect within ten years of purchase, it will be replaced in your home--free of charge. The disposer also comes with a lifetime warranty against corrosion.

« Very Satisfied With Product »

I bought from 'Waste King Direct' also known as `Cantex trading'. They have very fast delivery and low product cost. I removed the old disposal and installed the new disposal within one hour. It was much easier to install the Waste King then to remove the old `GE' disposal. I am very satisfied with the disposals performance and low noise level.

The product comes with excellent and detailed installation instructions. The connection to the sink flange is extremely simple and easy. The operates exactly as advertised, it is efficient and quiet.

« Clay Sink , Extended Flange, Adaptor Kit, Badger Replacement »

If you are replacing an InSinkErator Badger 5 disposer with a Waste King 3300 disposer on a clay or cast iron sink requiring an extended flange, simply buy the Waste King 3300 disposer and the Waste King 3101 ISE Adapter Kit. That is all you need to get the job done. Actually, even with a regular sink install, to make the job easy and to not have to deal with removing the old flange if it is in good shape and seating a new flange with plumbers putty and all, the adapter kit would save you the trouble.

I replaced an 8 yr old InSinkErator Badger 5 disposer with a Waste King 3300 and am pleased. Although the Badger was a bit more quiet when running without food, the Waste King noise is not objectionable, although with all the foam padding surrounding the Waste King (that is why it looks so fat), it may be more quiet when grinding food and likely faster. Comparing the Badger 5 to the Waste King on the insides, the Badger seems to have a much larger hole in the grinding chamber through which the waste is discharged, which might explain why my drain kept getting clogged every 6-months or so (no pasta, veggies, rice, or bread; made that mistake years ago; just an occasional coffee ground left over in the hopper and eggshells (apparently eggshells don't dissolve with chemical drain cleaner as that is what I pulled back when routing out the clog about 60 feet down the pipe; rent the 75 ft. powered plumbers auger snake at Home Depot if you are handy. Cover it with a tarp when retracting the cable or you'll spray your kitchen with drain water from the spinning cable, learned that lesson). Ultimately I replaced the Badger due to the plastic case cracking and leaking which is a common occurrence per the other Badger reviews. I had sealed the obvious crack with JB Weld epoxy which bought me another year of life but started leaking somewhere else.

Now to the Waste King sink and flange issue. I have a Shaw clay farmer sink which required the use of an extended flange for the Badger ($100 for the standard brushed stainless steel flange), which used a 3-bolt plus rotating ring mount system (the flange is held on by the 3-bolt mount, and the disposer is held on by a rotating ring). Frankly, I had thought I had an EZ mount since it had the rotating ring; not. The EZ mount flange of the Waste King appeared in the photos to be longer and of a different design, so I was thinking that the included flange would work for my sink if it was not a direct replacement for the Badger mount. Wrong. If your sink needs or already has an extended flange, order the Waste King 3101 ISE Adapter Kit from Amazon for under nine dollars (best deal and 3-day delivery for five dollars), and your installation will be a snap. The included instructions for the adaptor kit are not clear as the assembled parts do not look like the sketches in the instructions. Go to the Waste King website and review the excellent video installation guide for the adaptor.

The included Waste King flange is a polished stainless steel sheet metal ring covering on a black plastic body. You can see the inside of the black plastic flange when looking into the drain. Not especially attractive if you have a brushed nickel faucet and a white clay sink. Polished stainless or chrome fixtures are so 70's and I would worry about scratches over time, but I'll never know. But since money is tight I was going to use it anyway, but couldn't. But now I have an old InSinkErator flange which looks like new (which is solid stainless but for $100 what do you expect) with a Waste King disposer, but at least brushed SS looks enough like brushed nickel that it blends in. After extensive search it appears that Waste King only offers an extended flange for their 3-bolt mount system which is not adaptable to the Waste King EZ mount system disposers.

Why not simply buy the 3-bolt Waste King disposer thinking that it will be a direct replacement for the Badger 3-bolt mount? Not. From the specification sheet, the Waste King 3-bolt mount doesn't look anything like the Badger 3-bolt rotating ring mount so it is not a direct fit. The Waste King 3-bolt mount system uses a hose clamp to attach the disposer to the flange, not a locking ring. Imagine tightening a hose clamp with a screw driver with one hand while holding a heavy disposer with the other hand. Forget it.

By the way, the drain discharge tube on the Waste King 3300 was the same length as on the Badger 5 so the drain plumbing connected perfectly without pipe cutting or replacing. I used the rubber dishwasher coupler and hose clamp that came with the dishwasher with the new Waste King. My coupler is simply a rubber hose that couples the rigid plastic dishwasher discharge hose to the Waste King dishwasher nipple. The Badger 5 and Waste King 3300 have the same nipple diameter (don't forget to knock out the white plug in the dishwasher nipple if you are connecting a dishwasher). You might want to check the coupler before the new disposer arrives in case it is showing it's age as it may need replacing. Besides what came in the box, I only needed plumbers putty since I tried to replace the drain flange. Otherwise, all you need to install the disposer is a flat head screw driver for assemblying the discharge elbow to the disposer and for loosening and tightening the Badger ring, assuming your drain pipe is plastic and can be loosened and tightened by hand.

Is all of this trouble worth buying the Waste King versus just getting another Badger at HD? I say yes, as the Waste King looks to be a superior disposer for the money with a 10-year in-home warranty. I don't know how they can afford to do that with an under $100 disposer.

« Very Satisfied... »

The waste king is a very good product. It is very quiet and handles the waste very well. It's so quiet that you sometimes wonder whether its working. No problems with shipping and the install was easy. I was a little worried about the size but it fits under the sink a little closer than my first one and its not bad. So far , so good...

Excellent product, I needed a little help with install, called 800 number and quickly I was talking with a technician. 10 minutes later it was up and running! Would recommend this product to anyone.
