Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Wow. I've purchase 2 Insinkerator hot water dispensers in the past (installed them myself), and the quality of the Waste King appears to be (from the outside) much, much better than the Insinkerator. The last Insinkerator I had was a stainless steel tank, but the connections that come out of the tank are all plastic, and eventually leaked. It isn't even that they eventually leaked that made me angry, it was that these plastic connection pieces were custom made for the Insinkerator tank, are not universal connectors, and can't be replaced because they are specialized. I think Insinkerator does this on purpose, because when I called them about the fittings, they said they couldn't give me the parts, and that I would need to buy the whole tank. Also, the Insinkerator is practically double the price of the Waste King. The faucet that comes with the Insinkerator is all chrome-looking plastic, where as the faucet that comes with the Waste King IS ALL METAL, and the hoses that come out of the Waste King faucet are BRAIDED metal lines with metal compression fittings. Both ports that come out of the Waste King are metal too, not plastic like the Insinkerator, and one is copper tubing and the other looks like stainless steel. There is one thing that is not right about the faucet that comes with the Waste King, and that is the compression fitting on the water source tube is a three eighths inch compression fitting, yet the quick connects that Waste King provides with the tank accept only one quarter inch tubing. I was afraid to use the plastic quick connect fittings anyway for fear of leaking (even though Watts makes and sells the same kind of quick connect fittings at H0me Dep0t). The directions that come with the Waste King even say to connect the water source tube (three eighths inch) on the faucet to a one quarter inch tubing. I bought metal fittings and a three eighths inch tube at HD, connected it all, and on the first attempt, there were no water leaks. I hope I'm not disappointed.
