Written by the company

There’s a good reason why the name InSinkErator has been synonymous with food waste disposers for nearly 100 years. After all, we created the world’s first disposer back in 1927 and are proud to be the only manufacturer who can say they have invented, designed and assembled their products in America. What began as a simple idea to help American families dispose of after-dinner food scraps has evolved to a more hygienic and sustainable way to manage many tonnes of food waste every day. Our premium food waste disposers and our collection of instant hot water taps are ideal for upgrading kitchens – improving hygiene and providing convenience.

Great customer services

I had a problem with fitting a replacement filter on my InSinkErator so I phoned customer services and spoke to a young lady named Elaina, who was very friendly and helpful. Hopefully she has solved the problem. 😀

Great customer care and fab product

My first unit failed after only 4 months of use. Insinkerator replaced it without question.

I could not be without my waste disposal unit - far cleaner and sanitary than a food waste bin- and so quiet. Mine is in an open plan kitchen diner and is not at all distracting

Worthless Guarantee

Item was inspected by engineer and deemed to be user inflicted as a screw had fallen in and pierced the casing so device was condemned EVEN Though the engineer took the Condemned unit with him ( probably to recondition and resell) Was offered opportunity to buy a replacement unit @ £350/400 which I declined as that was more than the original cost. I will revert to scraping waste into the trash. And charged me an additional £170 for the privilege to boot to revert sink back to a standard drain

Dear Lee,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and speak with me today. As we discussed, the warranty covers quality-related issues, and unfortunately, the screw that had fallen and lodged inside is not within that scope.

That said, we truly value your feedback and take great pride in providing excellent customer service. I’ve taken the necessary steps to help improve your experience moving forward.

We appreciate your understanding and look forward to hearing from you once your concern has been resolved.

Kind regards,
Eugene

Helpful customer support line

I bought an Insinkerator 460 but couldn't get it to power on. I phoned the customer support number shown on the side of the unit and they answered quickly and explained I needed to hook up the air switch to activate it and then remove it (we don't need it). The air switch was missing in the box so they have arranged to post out a new one.

Excellent service

Excellent service. The guy I spoke to was really helpful. Our hot water tap started leaking after around 3.5 years of use. No question or quibble, the tap has been replaced under warranty within weeks. Excellent service from the customer service team and the fitter.

Tip-top technicians talked me through.

The technician talked me through the possible reasons the garbage disposal unit was not working, telling me what to look for on each part of the unit. The problem was totally solved.

Check instructions make sense

I ordered an upgrade to an old model. The item was well packaged with every extra though not all needed,

Very comprehensive instructions but after two hours of trying to sort out the air switch connection realised the instructions with no model indication was fir the wrong model. Do not leave the instruction to the seller but put it with the goods at the point of packaging.

My INSINKERATOR was a month out of warranty but leaking from the base of the unit. This unit was a replacement for an earlier one which developed exactly the same problem and I paid a reduced amount for its replacement. Having explained the circumstances and provided evidence of my purchase the CUSTOMER CARE team quickly reviewed my case and agreed that INKSINKERATOR would replace the unit at no cost to me. The replacement has was delivered three days later which I think is outstanding service.

Finding an engineer

On website, couldn't find any link to find a local engineer for a repair.
Had to go to chat which was awfully slow.

Hi C. Clarke,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We apologise for the inconvenience you experience while trying to locate a service engineer. We understand how important it is to access support quickly and efficiently, and we are actively working to make this process easier.

Our aim is to give the best possible service to our customers and we often find that troubleshooting with one of our customer service team members will resolve the issue. If a solution can't be found remotely, we then refer to a service engineer. Therefore, we don't publish our servicers details on the website.

We appreciate your comment on our chat response time and we're sorry to hear it was slower than expected. Please know that we're reviewing this to enhance the overall experience.

Thank you for your input, as it helps us identify areas where we can improve.
