Just installed myself after modifying my kitchen island to accommodate the trash compactor. This is one of the best kitchen appliances ever! Love the look and functionality. Every kitchen should have one.
Very nice looking and it's quite when you compact.
I like the way you open it from the bottom. Helps when you're cooking.
Thrilled with our new compactor! Blends in with our other kitchen appliances and is a perfect fit in the cabinets. Installed it ourselves and are proud of the results. Simple!
This is my second one. Installed one in previous home. This one was a piece of cake to level and position within the cabinet. It's simple to operate with a flip of your foot. One thing I don't like compared to older model is that the handle has been removed. Even though it opens by pressing the lever with your foot one dings touching the top edge to fully extend it. You can see the fingerprints gathering on the top ends even before using.
Had our GE Compactor a month and so far so good. The one thing that is different from our previous one is the noise level which is louder then our previous compactor.
My first and only trash compactor was a Kenmore, which lasted over 31 years. And probably could have lasted longer if I had of replaced the motor. The GE has a clean modern look to it. It's a solid and easy operation to it. Wether it'll last as long as my Kenmore remains to be seen. Otherwise I'm fairly pleased with its operation.
This unit was slightly smaller than the unit it replaced. This was fortunate in my case because I had no trouble fitting it into the existing space. While the replaced compactor was an absolute bear to remove I think it was because we had added a hardwood floor, had the cabinets refaced and had a new countertop installed. My real hope is that this unit will last as long as our last compactor, 38 years!! While both the old and new units have different brand names on them, structurally all the differences are really cosmetic. The new unit was easy to unpack, easy to level and operates as it should. Hopefully I won't have to write another review until 2062 (by then I'll be well over 100 years old).
The Great thing about this Compactor is the foot Pedal. The Weak point of this Compactor is the Foot Pedal. The design is Flawed. The Pedal pivots on s Small Screw Shoulder which wears out both the screw and the hole in about 1 Year. Just after Warranty. You must buy the Pedal to get the Screw and buy the Bin to get a new Hole.
Save your money unless you want to buy another one in a year. Metal bracket that holds the toe kick broke after a little over 1 year, conveniently just after the warranty expired. It is clearly a manufacturing defect. Now I have an expensive useless trash can.
