Badger 5 vs Badger 500, both emerge as good quality garbage disposals. After all, they bear similarities such as motor power and even grinding speed. However, you also notice differences which you can use to help make the ultimate decision.<\/p><p>The Badger 5 features a compact build which makes it perfect for small families and tight spaces. Additionally, the Badger 5 model is cheaper than Badger 500. The Badger 500 garbage disposal on the other end is slightly larger. Consequently, it bears a large grinding chamber which allows it to work on tougher food scraps.<\/p><p>Furthermore, the Badger 5 requires a cord for installation whilst Badger 500 uses direct wiring. So, the question you are left to ask yourself is which of these unique features work best for you.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element
