KTTS505ESS

• Solid Pack™ Control with 5:1 Compaction Ratio – compresses household waste to as little as one‑fifth its original volume, fitting up to five standard trash bags of garbage into a single bag to reduce bag use and trips to the bin.

• Whisper Quiet® Plus sound package – incorporates sound‑dampening insulation and design elements to help the compactor run quietly, supporting an open‑concept or nighttime‑use kitchen.

• KitchenAid® professionally‑inspired design – features a sleek stainless steel exterior, Satin Textured handle and KitchenAid® badge for a built‑in look that coordinates with other KitchenAid® appliances.

• Odor Management System with fan and charcoal filter – uses an internal fan and replaceable charcoal filter to help trap and neutralize odors inside the compactor, keeping the kitchen smelling fresher between bag changes.

• 1/3 HP heavy‑duty motor – delivers consistent compaction force for dense loads like food containers, packaging and mixed household trash, helping ensure powerful, worry‑free operation.

• 1.4 cu. ft. built‑in capacity – provides ample room for daily household waste in a compact 15"‑wide cabinet opening, ideal for integrating into standard kitchen base cabinetry.

• Built‑in trash compactor design – installs flush in a 15" cutout to create a seamless, integrated appearance and free up floor space compared with a freestanding trash can.

• All‑welded construction – uses a rigid, welded frame and drawer assembly to enhance durability and long‑term reliability under repeated compaction cycles.

• Automatic anti‑jam function – senses resistance and automatically reverses the ram direction to help clear jams, protecting the motor and simplifying recovery from overfilled loads.

• Side‑release bin – allows the trash container to be released and removed from the side for easier bag changes and handling of heavy compacted loads.

• Tilt‑away trash basket – tilts forward to make it easier to load and unload trash bags without lifting them straight up out of the cabinet.

• Toe bar drawer opener – lets you open the compactor drawer with a tap of your foot, providing hands‑free access when your hands are full or dirty.

• Touch pad electronic controls – offer simple, clearly labeled buttons for starting compaction, activating Solid Pack™ and controlling the air‑filter fan.

• Air filter fan on/off control – allows you to run the internal fan as needed to boost odor control or turn it off to conserve filter life.

• Solid Pack™ on/off selection – lets you choose between standard compaction and the more aggressive Solid Pack™ mode depending on the type and amount of waste.

• Integrated sound package – combines insulation and vibration‑reduction components to limit operational noise transmitted through cabinetry.

• Bag retainer buttons – hold the trash bag securely in place around the bin rim to prevent slippage and tearing during compaction.

• Tilt safety switch – automatically shuts off operation if the drawer is opened or tilted during a cycle, helping to protect users from moving parts.

• Hidden removable key lock – uses a concealed, removable knob to lock the compactor controls, helping prevent unintended use by children or during cleaning.

• Stainless steel door and handle – resist fingerprints and corrosion while providing a premium, easy‑to‑clean surface that matches other stainless appliances.

• 15" width, 34‑1/8" height, 24" depth – sized to fit most standard under‑counter 15" base cabinet openings with typical kitchen counter heights.

• Front levelers and rear rollers – simplify leveling and sliding the unit into place during installation, helping achieve a flush, stable fit.

• UL listed and Prop 65 compliant – tested to recognized safety standards and labeled to meet California Proposition 65 requirements.
