Moen Brass Single-Handle Kitchen and Bathroom Sink Faucet Cartridge Replacement, 1200

I wanted to save a few bucks, so I bought a used Moen valve. The old one was 48 years old, installed when the house was built. I was wary, but logically how can it truly be used, then returned? I figured the problem was it was the wrong part, and someone opened the package, discovered it was wrong, and returned to Amazon. I think I was right. It worked great, and no more drips while the valve is off. So, I either got lucky, or I was right. I’ll be dead before it needs changed again. And kudos to Moen for making this design. It’s like installing a new faucet, without having to tear out the shower wall.

genuine Moen replacement part. Glad it was same day delivery, great service!

Works great!! a little tough getting the old one out. Clean the inside with a little emery cloth into brass polish man what a difference should have done is a long time ago works great thanks guys.

Old one popped out with a bit of work. This popped in place easily. It fits and it saved me a call to a plumber or a trip to a big box store. Second one I've purchased. Will buy again should the need arise. Be sure and make sure you buy the correct model.

Easy to install for a DIYer. They have a long lifespan of 15 to 20 years. If you have a badly stuck valve, spend a few bucks to get the tool to pull out the old valve.

My 40+ year old valve rotated a little stiff, wasn't leaking, but even turned to full hot was not as hot as the sink faucet next to the shower. I wanted to stay with the Moen brass unit so I went with this. Pulled the knob and cover off then sprayed it vinegar for a couple days, using a removal tool everything came apart easily, not sure I needed the tool but happy I had it just in case. New valve was lightly greased from Moen, slid right in, reassembled and now have hot water. New valve turns super easy compared to old valve. If your valve turns stiff or needs a tug to pull out, a good push to close, it could be a warning. Not a hard job to DIY, only tools I used were screwdrivers to remove knob and cover, visegrip for retaining clip and valve removal tool.

Fantastic, worked perfect. Get the puller for $12 makes it so easy. Clean the inside with fine sand paper before you install new one, and I wish they included some silicone grease but I found some in the garage.

This is a high quality and well made product. The alternate is a plastic valve and they are not as durable.

Was a true genuine item

Bien installé et fonctionnel.

It is the same size and model I was looking for, I couldn’t find it at any plumbing stores but it was here at amazon, I watched YouTube and installed it in 5 minutes saving $200 for what the plumber asked for replacement. So no more dripping water from the faucet of the shower.

Had a drip from the shower tap in an older Moen fixture, this worked perfectly, drip was fixed. Required a special tool to remove the old cartridge although you could make do otherwise

Shower out of action and couldn’t find the replacement part. Amazon had it and it came in less than 24 hours. Downside Moen replace parts for free!
