When I was growing up, these seemed to be ubiquitous and I never liked them. They seemed overcomplicated for the purpose, and created a gross and smelly area under the sink that needed more cleaning.

I haven’t had one in years, as a simple sink mesh does the same job. But I don’t really know how other people are. Are under sink garbage disposals still common, and commonly actually used by people here?

    The sewage treatment is not built to handle that kind of stuff.

    They’re also not built to handle it in the US, but lower standards solve that problem pretty handily
