| 438004 | 2006-03-14 20:31:00 | I've never owned a waste disposal unit - or even considered buying one. I have a compost heap, a recycle bin & a bag for what we used to call the dustmen. So I'm intrigued. What do you owners put in these gizmos? All I have problems disposing of are chicken bones and rotten meat. Couldn't agree more but try telling that to my wife, children, assorted friends and relatives. I've tried. :waughh: On the other hand, heated towel rails meet my absolute approval. :thumbs: |

Its just about funny. Right up there with taxing gas emmisions from sheep while entire industries spew poison into our air and waterways. |

Either way, inspection should reveal one or the other. I should take the entire thing apart and check for loose blades, thanks. |

| 438008 | 2006-03-14 22:06:00 | All I have problems disposing of are chicken bones and rotten meat. With an In-Sink-Erator® disposal in your kitchen, chicken bones, fruit rinds, coffee grounds and more can go right down the drain and into the garbage disposal -- where they're virtually liquefied to safely flow into your sewage system or septic tank. www.insinkerator.com :D |

| 438010 | 2006-03-15 09:13:00 | What were those prices again . . ? $200-$700, was the quote, wasn't it? Ummm . . . now how many chicken carcasses per year to dispose of . . ? Maybe 15 tops . But there are extras with chicken pieces, of course . . . So how many years before the gizmo pays for itself? (Not forgetting it also has to be installed) Thanks all the same . But realistically, I don't think I'm a customer . . . |

| 438011 | 2006-03-15 18:44:00 | With section sizes for new houses shrinking to pocket handkerchief size, and growth of inner city apartments, with no gardens and no room for composting, we will see an increasing use of these devices. | Terry Porritt (14) | ||
