Stuff a bunch of potato skins in the hopper, turn it on and your about guaranteed a plugged drain. Turn on the disposal with water running and feed the tater skins in slowly, you can do 20 lbs with no problem. Disposals are pretty good on their own to clear clogs. Fill the sink with water, turn on the disposal and let the pressure push the clog out. You will have to plug off the companion drain if it’s a double sink.</blockquote>
