Looks to be better quality than the insinkerator it replaced. Easy to install. Super quiet. No leaks. Hope it lasts a long time.
Yes, I recommend this product.

My Insinkeator is leaking

It appears my Insinkeator is leaking around the Mounting ring. What could be causing this and how can I stop it?
Did you put plumbers putty under the ring that fits in the hole from the top? Very necessary. If that is ok you may need to turn the disposer and neck ring clockwise to seal under the sink.

Water doesn't drain completely from the disposer after it's used.

We're told this is due to the disposal being lower than the drain piple. Is there any chance that replacing the current disposal with a compact model would make a difference by raising the level of the disposal? This came up during a kitchen remodeling.
I had that problem with my old insinkerator. The exit on the new Evolution Compact was slightly higher than the old one and it solved the problem.

Yesterday, the water in the sink started to drain very slowly, as if a drain is clogged. What should I do?

The only thing I can think of that might have clogged it was some cooked kale (about 1 cup) I ground recently. Should I use a chemical drain clog remover?
I would not use a chemical clog remover. Try to grind up some walnut shells which might clean the holes in the cylinder wall of the grind chamber. If that doesn't work, you may need to disconnect the plumbing at the unit exit and clean the pipes from there.

can you instal this without a wall button, just a top activated?

It needs to be connected to an electric switch of some kind.

Why won"t the garbage grind and dispose?

The motor runs, the teeth turn, water flows freely, but the garbage won't grind up. We tried cleaning with baking soda and water solution with no help. Unit is 4 years old.
Sounds like the impellers might be hung up. They should be loose on their pins.
