Any disposal that uses a switch can use the counter button (called an air switch) The air switch is sold separately. Insinkerator sells one that works just fine, but if you have a high end faucet with a fancy finish, you might want to get the one that matches their finish. The Insinkerator Evolution series is the quietest disposal Ive come across. I had a service guy tell me to turn it on when it was already running. My instant hot is a Little Gourmet by Mountain Plumbing Supply. Iread about them here at least 8 years ago. The spout worked with my faucet and I've been happy with it. They come in chrome -- look nice, work nice. Found this photo on Amazon

Well, "life" happened and the kitchen took a back seat :(. It's always on my mid but did not get a chance to spend any quality time on it. Thank you jakuvall, for some reason I did not realize that 36X33 would have smaller suzan - duhhh - thank you for pointing it out. That now makes me think twice about doing 36X33 as I am "loosing" more space than I thought. westsider40 - I was looking at the rev-a-shelf but did not look closely at the measurements. I will double check to see how much space is inside the rails. I don't like that left corner so much that I am considering moving the window so I can have more usable cabinet sizes. As I have it now on the uppers, I do see how having skinny 9" (about) door as part of easy reach and than 12 inch door/cab might not be the best. And there is just no great solution for the bottom either. If I move the window about 10 inch to the right and make my cabs 13" deep since I think I can do maybe 26X26 easy reach than 15" cab and 29" cab on the other side of the window. I Than the bottom cabinets I think could be - 36X36 susan, 12" (pullout), 30" sink cab, 15" drawer. I have total of 119 inches on that wall but want to leave couple of inches (I think maybe I'll leave 3") between the cabinets and door molding. I will have to draw it out and see if i need to tweak the sizes as I am not that quick with math but it seems like maybe that would be a better solution? I will play around with couple layouts and see what makes more sense. Once I re-do my drawings, should I make a new post or continue this one - not sure what is more acceptable and easier or proper.

We are considering doing a GD at the clean up sink only for scraping any yucky stuff off dishes. Virtually everything at the prep sink goes to compost so no need for a GD there, IMHO. Can't help with filter. Don't have it or need it. Sorry.

I've had the same problem and I think its more likely the result of the fast moving disposal discharge both hitting the side wall of the fitting as well as having to overcome the stationary water in the trap. For a moment, the discharge splatters both up and down as its flow is trying to overcome the stationary mass of trap water. In a second or so, things settle down and everything continues down the drain. I believe a directional tee fitting that directs the disposal discharge downward at the tee would solve the majority of your issue. http://forms.iapmo.org/email_marketing/codespotlight/2018/aug23.htm Personally, I've never found this type of fitting in the DWV sizes, but I have seen them in the cheaper polypro type of drain fittings.
