If you're shopping for an InSinkErator® food waste disposer or have just purchased one, you'll be happy to know that InSinkErator® brand disposers are the easiest to install. That's because all models feature our stainless steel QuickLock® sink mount. (And if you're replacing an InSinkErator® disposer, installation is even easier.) Just "twist off" the old disposer and "twist on" the new one. What's more, with QuickLock® you can replace any disposer.
