AmazonCommercial 3/4-HP vs Moen GXS75C Host Series 3/4 HP

Overall Verdict

The AmazonCommercial 3/4-HP is equipped with a high-speed permanent magnet motor that effortlessly handles a variety of food scraps. Even with large amounts of food, its fast pace effectively avoids jamming. Considering its reasonable cost, performance, and build quality, the disposal offers plenty of value.

On the flip side, the Moen Host GXS75C remains one of the most versatile 3/4-HP garbage disposals we've tested. In its price range, the disposal’s grinding capabilities are tough to beat. Additionally, its high-speed, jam-resistant motor and solid construction should be enough to satisfy the average home.
