    Thank you thank you thank you! Great simple video!!! This wife here was able to replace the garbage disposal easy peasy thanks to you! Also loved the real life banter between husband and wife! If my husband were the handy man I’d be telling him “we have rags for that kinda stuff too” But since I’m the handywoman I know which rags to use, lol

    Thank you for this video. I needed to replace my Badger 15ss and this video definitely helped me by showing me what to expect and keeping my frustration to a 1 on a scale of 1-10.
    One thing that might help some of us older folks or not so strong folks is to get something to put under the disposal to help take the old one off and the new one on. I used some 2x4's stacked up to just about 1/2" under the disposal. That way when it came off, I could easily set it down that far and more importantly I rested the new disposal on the 2x4's to line it up and only had to lift it that small distance. For me, that made a big difference from the last time I installed one.

    Thanks for the video, but just to let you know, the terms clockwise and counterclockwise are always relative to the threads they connect to, so you actually turn the ring clockwise to tighten and counterclockwise to loosen. Just being nitpicky! But the basic idea of how to remove and install the disposal came through loud and clear! Great job! Thanks!

    After I installed my new disposal it started to leak because the first thing I did was throw out the instructions.

    You need a strain relief on that hole where the wire feeds into the unit. It will keep the connections from getting pulled loose at the wire nuts and protect the cord from getting cut by the chassis. If not properly grounded, a cut cord touching the metal could electrify the sink and not trip the circuit breaker.

    Read about wire matching! When I did my own garbage disposal, the power cord had a system of ribbed wire for nuetral and smooth wire for hot, which matched the the nuetral white and hot black wires of the disposal. This was for my specific model and cable. Don't assume yours will be the same. Always read through your instillation instructions and check how wires should be connected.
    Other than that I found this video fairly helpful for what to expect with an instillation.

      You are right. There is a mark on the electric cord for hot and neutral.

      Ribbed wire in the cord goes to white, smooth to black, per the instructions that comes with the disposal

    My wife has a penchant for dropping shot glasses in the disposal and also running the disposal for half a second with no water and calling it good. Trying to bring it up to her completely backfired. Instead of going to battle again, I’ve conceded to constantly replacing my garbage disposal in order to preserve what is left of peace in my life.
    Just wanted to say thank you so much for this video. I just finished replacing my 2nd badger in 6 months and this video saved me a ton of cash on having to not hire a guy.
    Also, any marriage counselor recommendations would be appreciated.

    Good video, but you forgot to mention the gasket that comes with the garbage disposal - in the bag with the tool and NOT already in the drain hole of the garbage disposal. We hooked up the new garbage disposal and give it a test run to find water leaking from the drain hole.

    You explained it well but that threaded hole you pushed the cord wire thru needed a ROMEX connector. Don’t over tighten the connector on your cord when screwing the connector holding screws in.

    so which was does your disposal spin when you turn it on? It's designed to spin clockwise...if it spins counterclockwise, you connected the power wires backwards...
