GE Continuous Feed 3/4-HP vs InSinkErator Evolution Essential XTR Side-by-Side Comparison
You can’t really feel the quietness of high-end garbage disposals until you’ve experienced it. “Day and night”, some might say.
GE Continuous Feed 3/4-HP
Tested Using Methodology v1.0InSinkErator Evolution Essential XTR
Tested Using Methodology v1.0Overall Verdict
The GE GFC720N is equipped with a sturdy, high-speed permanent magnet motor, effortlessly handling a variety of food scraps with little effort. Moreover, its rapid-spinning operation effectively prevents jamming, even under large input loads. Considering both its reasonable cost and performance, this disposal emerges as arguably the most well-rounded mid-range grinder available on the market.
On the other hand, the InSinkErator Evolution Essential XTR is unquestionably one of the quietest in the industry. The disposal inherits a noise reduction system and a multi-stage grinding mechanism that is only matched by the others in the same series. It’s also a long-lasting and well-built machine. But it’s almost double the price in comparison.
