I've just got most of the items unpacked in to our new flat, but there is one bit of equipment that really confuses me in the kitchen! The sink has a smaller basin (maybe 1/3 the width of the actual sink) which has a fairly sizable unit underneath it which is connected to a mains supply.

I've got no idea what this is, as I can't understand why it needs a power source - could it be waste disposal or something like that? I can't see any switch to activate it, so no idea how it works

Can't wait to get ADSL back up and running, 30 mins of internet a day just isn't enough!

It's probably a waste disposal unit, bung some veg down the plug hole and see what happens

Don`t put your fingers in just drop a carrot in and see it maybe an automatic waste disposal unit.

Yep, plug it in, use no more than a 5amp, chuck some skinned vegan down the hole.



Just re-read your post ... it is probably an automatic, just chuck something in the hole and turn on the tap.

OK, I'm going to try this now... back in 2 mins

Hmmm, now I'm one carrot short

I think I'm going to have to get in touch with the landlord to figure this out, as I'm sure it must be waste disposal - perhaps the fuse has gone though. (the switch is turned on ).

No way man, veggies are rubbish. I survive on a diet of meat and cheese. :-)

Could have been more if you had not seperated the bunch Just watch you fingers.

I've just googled the model number of the thing and it does match with a Zanussi Waste Disposal unit! Just need to figure out how it works now!
