I learned of this disposal from Consumer Reports, who gave it a top rating and stated that the ez mount was truly easy to install. I went through the numerous reviews on amazon and came across numerous poor rating, many of which complained that the ez mount was so difficult that they could never mount the disposal. Tick another mark to the the unable to mount column. The cushion mount (gasket) is so oversized that we can not get the mount ring to grab and and mount. Numerous other reviews complined of this exact problem. Also, the help line is closed because it is a sunday and I am stuck calling a plumber in to see if he can get it to mount. Do not bother,BUY A DIFFERENT DISPOSAL, this one is a worthless headache.
