Comment: This is a replacement for an older model H990 unit that was dying after 10 years of use. The upper portion of the unit is identical, but the undersink heater unit appears to be made of plastic, not metal, like the previous model (which had a copper tank enclosed in styrofoam enclosed in sheet metal). Notably, the other unit ran silent but this model--which you think would be an improvement--makes a very noticeable "roaring" sound when heating the water, audible over a low TV or conversation even from under the sink. Also, the water out of the tap is about 30 degrees cooler (170 vs. 200) at the "factory preset" thermostat setting. Product description on Amazon is confusing and contradictory: is it a 1 yr or 3 yr warranty? 120 or 115 volts? 2/3 gallon or 1/2 gallon tank? It gets the job done, but it's the little things like this that give the impression of diminishing quality from the InSinkErator brand, and at this price point you expect more.

Summary: Easy Installation 2009-11-28
Comment: I received the new unit and it easily fit the brackets of the former unit. The only problem I noticed is that the water has a chemical taste. I am not certain if it is caused by the material used or the heat makes the chlorine come out of the water.

Summary: Buy One to Install--But a Second as Backup 2009-09-14
Comment: We installed the first InSinkErator H990C Hot Water Dispenser in 1999. We have replaced it twice. Both times the tank began leaking and flooded the space under the sink. We enjoy the convenience the product offers, but just wish the design of the tank was more reliable.

Comment: I expected this one to be as quiet as the 1/2 gallon model,
but, it's quite the opposite.
It makes a loud 'gurgling' sound every time it heats the
container.
