What Customers Are Saying
The Delta shower cartridge received mixed reviews. While some found it easy to install and effective at stopping leaks, many customers reported significant quality and reliability issues. The cartridge frequently started leaking within a short period, often requiring multiple replacements. Concerns were also raised about water flow, temperature control, and overall product quality. Despite a few positive experiences, the majority of reviews suggest this is an unreliable product that fails and requires repeated replacement.
Customer review summary generated by AI, including incentivized reviews.Poor design
Would Not RecommendThis cartridge does not have a long life span. I've purchased 2 in the past four years giving it a lifespan of 2 years. It will suddenly start leaking and the only option seems to spend another $70.00 to replace it. Replacement is fairly simple and for most people would not require a plumber. Based on my experience, and that of others, it seems to be a case of poor product quality. The only other option would be to replace the entire shower unit and that is not really practical.
Did the job
Would RecommendPerfect fit, no leaks, bit pricey but I'll pay for quality and peace of mind any time.
Faulty product
Would Not RecommendSprings keep popping out causing water to run when the shower is off.

Delta Blues
Would Not RecommendThis is a terribly engineered product, practically guaranteed to leak no matter how well it's installed. Didn't just leak, it went on fully despite being turned off. Do not buy!! Required us to turn the water off until we replaced it. Delta should be so ashamed they have not updated it's design.

Would Not RecommendI switched to Delta because Moen cartridges kept going bad after less than a year. Now every single one of the Delta showers (4) I put in my houses are leaking after only a year or two. Terrible quality. Delta should be ashamed.

Be gentle and trying to remove the valve
Would RecommendThe product was easy to install once you got the lock nut off the valve. That took most of the time I had to use liquid wrench and heat to get it broken loose.
