Moen EX Black
Score: 82/100
Kraus WasteGuard
Score: 78/100Rankings
The Moen EX75C is a 3/4 horsepower continuous-feed garbage disposal with a VORTEX motor and pre-installed power cord for easy installation. It lacks extensive user feedback and professional reviews, making long-term reliability harder to verify. It is ideal for homeowners with standard kitchen setups using existing 3-bolt mounting assemblies.
The Kraus WasteGuard is a 1/2 HP continuous-feed garbage disposal featuring a high-speed permanent-magnet motor designed for efficient residential food waste grinding. It incorporates noise-reduction technologies and a stainless steel grinding chamber, though it requires a separately purchased switch and has a smaller capacity. Best suited for regular home cooks and DIY installers seeking quiet operation in open-concept kitchens.
