Vanity Sink Metal Pop-Up Drain Stopper Assembly - Perfect for Your Bathroom Faucets by Purelux

Backhoeboy: Installed in bathroom sink

Lauri: We have several bathroom vanities that were purchased as a unit. They included the cabinet below, the stone counter, and the sink. We had to add the faucet, but the drain was already installed. While the vanities are very nice, the drains that were included were not. Even though the trim kit we bought would operate a drain, all the vanities came with pop-up drains that didn't work well. We initially didn't bother to change them out but after a few years, they became discolored and looked terrible. We replaced the drains in 3 sinks with this better quality drain which is not a pop-up and operates so much better. Most important to me, it looks so much better!

MJHDMD: These are a step above the plastic assembly you find at big box stores for not that much more. Easy replacement and the rubber gaskets eliminate the need for plumber putting or silicone.

Mark Wojcik: This stopper assembly works as well and installs as easily as any I've used. The materials are good quality and should last.

However:

- Read the instructions before you start and check to make sure you're assembling the pieces of the closure arm in the right order, for instance. It's easy to have to take it apart and redo it if you get them in the wrong order.

- It's tricky to get it to seal really well to the base of the sink on its own. A leak here would be low-pressure, so caulk would work but even stainless putty would do the job.

- The lever arm for the closure is longer than most I've seen. Our bathroom sink is a standard model and size, installed normally, and the lever arm hits the back wall. You can shorten the arm with a hacksaw (but it's a commendably beefy piece of metal) or you can gouge a groove out of the wall if it's drywall and not the back of your cabinet (kind of a displeasing hack). Otherwise, odds are good that when you try to raise and lower the stopper, the back of that arm will hit the wall and stop.

A lot of kits have an arm that's scored so you can shorten it fairly easily if you need to. This kit, no. Still, I haven't...

Frugal Gourmet: This short review is based on my expecting poor finishing but good quality. I was surprised to see excellent finishing, no jagged or sharp edges, and a most impressive drain assembly at this price. However, in my case, it appears that the combination of my pedestal sink and the previously installed faucet, cannot use the plunger rod supplied. As a result, I will probably be returning this.

Cassidy: It was very easy to install. The instructions are very straightforward. Looks nice and feels like it's good quality. There was one review I noticed before purchasing about the rod that goes from the drain pipe to the faucet leaver being too long and hitting the back wall. I had the same issue, I have tools to cut and make shorter but this may not be the case for everyone so be aware of this issue.

Tim C.: Good quality for the price. I did have a drip where the tailpiece screws into the casting, but a little extra teflon tape and it was fixed. The instructions do say you must use tape on this joint. Be liberal and you're fine.

kdfamily: Installed it a few days ago, so not sure how it will last, but it seems quite solid and the chrome looks great. Even the pull rod is higher quality but take note to use a wrench or pliers to give the holding screw some extra tightening to work properly.

Raymond.D.Harrison: Was easy to install but the waste was not what I would call brushed nickle and does not really match the tap set , will do the job though.

Amazon Customer: I am a fairly handy person and was not happy with my Moen product. This is a superior product to the OEM. Installation was easy but I agree with a previous purchaser: I discarded the top rubber washer and used plumber's putty. Looks amazing and functions beautifully. Thanks Purelux!
