After all, we created the world’s first disposer back in 1927 and are proud to be the only manufacturer who can say they have invented, designed and assembled their products in America. What began as a simple idea to help American families dispose of after-dinner food scraps has evolved to a more hygienic and sustainable way to manage many tonnes of food waste every day.

Superb customer service and warranty

Our Insinkerator food dispenser was about 4yrs old when it suddenly stopped working. After a quick call with their customer service rep who guided me through a few checks to determine it wasn't an electrical connection problem, they put me in contact with their local certified engineer who ordered a new replacement unit and swapped the old one in a matter of days. I was very impressed by their prompt, courteous customer service and truly no quibbles 8yr warranty. 5* rating is well deserved

Totally reliable repair

Peter was fantastic, very knowledgeable about the product. He got our brand new (incorrectly installed) Insinkerator up and working. His site visit communications were timely. He fully explained product use to me too. I highly recommend Peter.

Apparently not interested in resolving problems

Problem with a virtually brand new boiler tap, reported to Insinkerator who passed me the contact details of the local agent with suggestion I get in touch with him and arrange a visit. Unfortunately the agent quickly replied to say he didn't, in fact, cover my area. Back to Insinkerator for details of agent who DID cover this area or possible alternative courses of action (uninstall tap and return to them, perhaps). No response. Follow up email - again, no response. It would appear that having given out (incorrect) information it's case closed and we don't need to do anything more. Ultimately had to make my own arrangements to get the tap replacement, without any support from Insinkerator - not impressed.

Problems over justifying the warranty

The only thing I had doubts about was the company seemed to be trying to get out of the warranty I had, they said the warranty period started from the day the heater has been made and not the date I received it which was several weeks/months earlier so it has obviously been in the warehouse in that time period. Then they tried to imply that the filter I had fired should have been an insinkerator filter with the reference F701R, my filter is is a Finerfilter water filter which clearly states it’s comparable with the Insinkerator F701R and is the same make of filter that the heater came with and which we have replaced every 6 months. However I was eventually able to order my replacement heater under the warranty.

Hi Kevin,

Thank you for your feedback, and we apologise for any confusion regarding the warranty.

Our standard warranty policy is based on the date of purchase or installation, as shown on a valid receipt. In the absence of a receipt, the warranty period is determined from the product's manufacturing date.

Regarding the filter, we are aware that some third-party brands claim compatibility with our systems by designing their filters to fit our housings. However, we cannot verify the composition or performance of these filters, nor can we guarantee how they may affect the function or longevity of our system. Our F-701R filter is specifically engineered for use with our hot water system and includes ion exchange resin, which is highly effective in treating hard water.

We truly appreciate your time on the phone and value your feedback.

Best wishes,
John

Customer care is of a high standard

Further to my original review where I was unhappy with a hot water tank, Insinkerator has contacted me and taken the time to resolve my issue with the tank. Customer service is of a high standard at this company and I appreciate the time taken to suggest some different solutions to the problem. I have therefore changed my rating from my original review due to their responsiveness and assistance.

Hi Lucy,

Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. While we're pleased that our customer care team has been responsive and courteous, we're sorry to hear that your experience with the product has fallen short of expectations.

We understand how frustrating it must be to encounter issues when the product is used with such reasonable frequency. This is certainly not the level of service we strive to deliver.

Please be assured that your feedback has been shared with our product development team for review. We appreciate your time on the phone and for giving us the opportunity to improve your experience.

Started well, but........

4 years ago, and as part of our new kitchen project, we decided to purchase an Insinkerator 200S as it was rated one of the best in the market with some great reviews.
Being a 2 person household who compost a lot, the unit has had minimum wear in the time fitted, so you can imagine our dismay when it stopped working. Luckily, we contacted Insinkerator Customer services who confirmed that there was a year left to run on the warranty. We were then put in contact with their authorised service engineer who, with due dilligence asked us what we had done to attempt to get the unit working again. We went through all of the fault finding and trouble shooting remedies to no avail. The engineer then stated that he would have to contact Insinkerator to establish whether he could come out to look at the device in question as we were outside of his service area ( given that he appears to be the only authorised engineer within the localised south west of England area, this was a surprise)- this was on the 14/8/25. On the 16/8/25 the engineer confirmed that he had our details and that he was waiting to hear from Insinkerator on their decision as apparently, they needed to see a receipt of purchase. Understandably, both the engineer and I were a little concerned by this as I did state that the unit was part of a kitchen fit and we could not find any receipt for a single item. Luckily we were both in possession of the email stating that the machine was under warranty and registered at our address and thanks to the service engineer, Insinkerator had agreed to a new replacement unit with the latest model, as the 200S has been discontinued- so far so good!
At time of writing this review( 29/8/25), I've now had to chase the engineer twice ( not his fault), to contact Insinkerator regarding when the new unit will arrive- so far there's been no reply apart from asking what days we were available to have the replacement unit fitted. Being easygoing folks, we've stated that we would be flexible and work around the engineer's schedule.
As the Insinkerator was also plumbed directly to the main sink, for a time we've managed alternate means of sink usage in the kitchen,but, unfortunately, the novelty of washing our dishes in a bucket is now starting to lose some of it's charm- is 15 days not enough time to send out a new unit??......
