    Garbage disposal? They have limited utility, but save you from having to transfer food scraps from the sink to the trash or compost.
    The built in ice/water dispenser in the refrigerator is the one that mystifies me.

      My first UK flat - renovated in the 1980s - had a waste disposal installed. Eventually it clogged, and the plumber who came to fix it said he loved these things because they made him a lot of money. He himself would never have one. It had clogged from the dirt from potato peelings, apparently a very common issue.

      Garbage disposals are a thing I can’t understand for the life of me. Like yes the food scraps are disgusting but you pull out the metal filter not scrape the food from the sink. And it isn’t free correct me of I am wrong but it costs about 50 dollars.
