Approximately 146,000 garbage disposals across various brands including Moen, Waste King, Frigidaire, and Kenmore have been recalled because a internal metal component can break off and be ejected from the unit during operation. There have been 22 reports of components breaking, including three instances where consumers were hit by flying debris. The recalled units were sold between December 2015 and March 2017 at retailers like Best Buy, Home Depot, and Amazon for between $80 and $450. Consumers should stop using these disposals immediately and contact Anaheim Manufacturing for a free replacement and professional installation.
A metal component inside the disposal can break while the motor is running and be forcefully ejected out of the sink opening. This creates an impact hazard for anyone standing near the sink, with reports of broken parts already hitting three consumers.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled garbage disposals and contact Anaheim Manufacturing to arrange for a free replacement disposal to be installed at no cost to the consumer.
