Overall Verdict

With its imperfections, the InSinkErator Advanced Evolution 0.75HP is a worthwhile option for what it offers. It offers not only stainless steel chamber components and exclusive multi-stage grinding, but also advanced acoustic treatment that reduces operation noise like none on the market.

From tough plant-based scraps like avocado pits to cooked animal bones, as long as they are not as tough as raw salmon remains, this grinder can process and send them safely on their way. Plus, the disposal’s close-to 10 years of warranty is undeniably valuable. At around $200, this is hands down the safest bet if you’re looking for a new disposal.

Things We Like

  • Anti-vibration details
  • Premium build
  • Fine output
  • Auto-reset circuit breaker
  • EZ hardwire connection
  • 10-year in-home warranty

Things We Don’t Like

4.8 Performance

While the disposal didn’t have the best runs, it impressed us with how smoothly it tends to release its output. In fact, they delivered smaller food particles compared to the old Compact and XTR models when dealing with common food scraps, which suggest lower risks of clogging. Avocado pits, fruit peels, corn cobs, even cooked bones didn’t cause any issues. 

It did struggle with raw bone scraps, specifically with raw salmon remains, which tends to happen with new InSinkErator disposals.

8.9 Design

The InSinkErator Advanced Evolution 0.75 is among the best-crafted garbage disposals on the market, with rigid construction and excellent functionality. 

The disposer sports a thick protective casing with advanced features in noise and vibration canceling. It also enjoys durable grinding components and a high-torque induction motor. Its biggest drawback is the motor’s low speed, which has a higher chance of jamming than high-speed motors.
