JoLLyShane: It took me a month to install this product. Although I watched how to do it in Youtube, at first, I was still hesitant to install it because, I thought it would be complicated... I almost called a plumber. But it was a very simple installation.... I even learned to assemble and disassemble this product, using the old one that I replaced. As a matter of fact, the old one was not really broken... the leaking was caused by the displacement of the washer for the cold water and for the hot water not coming out all the time, it was the spring that was displaced. I cleaned the whole unit, greased the springs and washers and it's all good !! But of course, I am now using the new one. But this item... I think it is over-priced !!

JRFINN: You can possibly just replace this item if you have a dripping tub faucet. It’s best to have the on/off valve and can purchase as a kit.

xx: Better version of the older model, help stop the leakage in my faucet. Very easy to install just have to make sure it is lube. It did not arrive with a lube however

Jesse: My shower only sprayed hot water and this replacement part fixed the problem.

I docked it one star because the required o-rings didn’t get packaged the way they were supposed to. Instead of 2 big and 2 small I got 3 big and 1 small. A dollar and a trip to the local hardware got me the ring I needed.

So make sure you have the expected assortment of parts and check their sizes before you shut off the water.

Blue mountain: Fixed shower faucet

Coolio: This replacement part works well . The installation took some time as the disassembly of the faucet was the trickiest part. Had to do a bit of research to find out how to remove the various trim and covers for my model without breaking them. But once you understand the steps, the overall task is very doable for most home owners. So far, the hot and cold water is coming out very balanced and the faucet is very responsive again.

PeterPeter: The shower faucet has been in use for about 20 years and became either all hot or all cold and jumped between when I tried to adjust. A youtube on a plumber website gave the part numbers for the internal bits and help on how to get the faucet apart. I found the parts on amazon and changed both the cap and pressure balancer at the same time. As described on the plumber site, this cap is different from the original.

The hardest part of the installation was finding how the middle piece of the faucet is removed. It is just done by finger pressure. Put fingers on the middle part and turn it slightly. It just comes out.

The pressure balancer looks different, but Kohler seems to give it the same part number. It all fit and was not that difficult. The shower is useful again. I only give it 4 starts because I do not think that it works like new. After I set a temperature and then get in the shower it makes changes as if it had a very slow lag. It is quite repeatable so I can wait longer for it to stabilize.
