Do-It-Yourself Stories from Customers like You
Our kitchenaid disposer lacked the rubber guard in the entrance to the disposer Darrol L. • Waxhaw , NC • July 06, 2015
Purchased and installed the proper multi-finger rubber guard. With the metal ring provided with the guard, the installation was very easy and the guard fit exactly into the disposer opening in the kitchen sink. Total time was 3 to 5 minutes total. The disposer works and sounds much better now.
