Garbage Disposal Recommendations

Years ago, more than 30, I had a 1/2 hp ISE, it worked great for many years then the motor froze... I replaced it with a 3/4 hp ISE Badger 5 Plus, big mistake!

In less than 5 years I started having problems... One time the drain clogged and the trap was packed tight with one inch pieces of potato skins... Since then I have to run it for at least 3 minutes to grind up the peelings from 4 russet potatoes and sometimes I have to run it twice because the water won't go down... ( Yes, I have had the drain snaked out. ) Besides all that it has a thick coating of rust on the bottom, inside.

I want it replaced... Any recommendations on a garbage disposal that will grind up vegetable peelings smaller than one inch and last more than 7 years?
