Summary: Replace a Badger with a Badger
Comment: I was satisified with the Badger 5 by Insinkerator, so I ordered an exact replacement. The old one was still working whereas the motor was good but the case just wore out. Busted right thru the aluminum side wall. I don't know how long it was in service as it was in the house when I bought it 10 years ago. Total rust out of the steel case teeth exposed the aluminum to the direct blast of the ground up material. I put ice cubes into the unit occationally to clean things up and give it a little work out, until one day...The cubes came out the side of case.
Another thing I did which I do not recomend now was to put orange peels into the unit and grind them partially, leaving the remains in the unit beause it smelled nice and I felt it was sanitizing things. Don't do this. The acids left are probably what caused so much rust.
I don't think you can by a better brand and I am satisfied.
