What Customers Are Saying

Customers praise this diverter repair kit for effectively stopping leaks and restoring proper water diversion to showerheads, with most reporting installation in under 15 minutes and significant savings versus hiring a plumber. Many highlight its reliability and affordability as a "money saver." However, some encounter fit problems with newer or non-Delta/Moen fixtures, noting issues like thick plastic valve wings or oversized lift rod tips requiring modification. A few report defects or complete failure. Despite compatibility challenges for certain models, most customers consider it a worthwhile, cost-effective repair solution.

The new shower repair kit is actually superior to the original, as the pull knob and shaft are one piece, not two. The directions that came with the kit are spot on, and the repair took abou...
