Questions & Answers

How many decibels
ByOct 23, 2026
1 Answer | 
Answer This Question

Hello Sean and thank you for your interest in Moen products. The Moen Chef Series 1 HP Continuous Feed Garbage Disposal does not have a decibel rating like most disposals because there are many factors that contribute to the noise level. Some of those are sink material, cabinet type and type of waste being disposed of. If you have additional questions, please feel free to call us at 1-800-289-6636. We are available Monday through Friday from 8:00 am - 7:00 pm Eastern Time.

                  Great Disposal - Lousy Registration Process
                  I purchased this EX100C disposal on line from Home Depot and had it delivered to my home. I came overnight - great delivery. Installed it two days later - Installation was straight forward, no issues. Runs nice reasonably quite, though I have put anything but water through it yet. Unfortunately, I spent nearly as long trying to register it as I did to install it! Serial # is on the bottom and difficult to see once it's under the sink. Finally got a photo of the serial# (Suggestion: Take a picture of the label BEFORE you install it!). I sat down at the computer to fill out the form and no matter what I did, the website would not accept the model#. Finally i gave up and printed out the form and the receipt and mailed it along with a photo of the model#. Other than the registration, I'm happy so far!

                    A few weeks ago, we replaced our old disposal with a brand we haven't tried before--Moen. We're happy with the sound and vibration level. We really like the fact that the outer rubber ring is easily removeable for cleaning! It comes with a plug (easy), but we had to hardwire it because we don't have an outlet under the sink.

                    No turning hole Cannot rotate
                    The drain is slow again after replacing the garbage disposal. I thought I can do the manual rotation like the old garbage disposal. But there is no turning hole in the bottom. I have the wrench but there is no hole. This is frustrating. I have to return it. But I need to hire people to uninstall it. It is really a waste of time and money.

                      Stick with the reputable brand - stay away from this model.
                      I bought this 2 weeks ago @ Home Depot and we got installed and it was cracked and leaking. I also found it loud and was disanointed with my choice in brands. I called Moen today to address how to rectify the situation, & they told me in more words or less they would do nothing. STAY AWAY - BUY the InSinkErator brand. The price for this one is not worth a more reliable brands lesser model. I would never buy Moen again.

                          Do Not Purchase. More trouble than it is worth.
                          I have installed many disposals before and this is one of the worst. The drain elbow lock ring does not fit properly. Bad quality control or engineering specs. There is no easy way to fix Jams. Standard wrench will not work and must purchase a special tool It Jams often with my customers are compared to the Insinkerator. The Noise is not better with this version.
