    I bought two of these cartridges and replaced a shower valve and a sink valve,in 2011. No problems at all both cartridges work great. They are not true Moen parts though. Also used a Moen cartridge puller which worked as it was suppose to. Just make sure to use the little plastic cartridge do-hicky to loosen up the old cartridge before using the puller. And lube up the new cartridge with plumbers grease before installing it. Also take off the little snap ring and pull the inside out of the cartridge and lube the O-rings that are inside also. Hardest part in my opinion is getting the u-clip back into place with the new cartridge installed. Use lots of silicon grease when installing and things go back together really smoothly. Update 11-24-15, Had to replace this cartridge 4 years later. I was disappointed in how long it lasted. Maybe a true Moen part would be worth the extra money after all.

    Product is working fine only time will tell if it will last as long as the original that failed/leak after 29 yrs. Moen is replacing the old ones under warranty as Im the original homeowner, however they are sending the plastic version 1225B. Rather have brass should last much longer than plastic one. At least Ill have a spare for backup. Watched YouTube videos on how to and sprayed cartridge with PB Blaster prior to using the tool to twist it right n left till it broke loose and then slowly removed it. Greased the inside of the water pipe and the O-rings on the new cartridge with danco waterproof grease.

    The pull-out, on/off, hot-cold, knob for the shower in the travel trailer leaked pretty bad. Water conservation is important but especially in a rv/travel trailer when your water supply is limited. The old knob actually pulled off too. During repair, it was determined there was no problem with the knob, but the valve was bad and the retaining clip had broke as well. When using this for your repair make sure your retaining clip is in good condition. It is a separate part, so order it as well if you need it. It is the part that keeps this valve, handle, and everything locked in place, it is a gold U-shaped retaining clip with a little hole in the middle and little protusions on the ends which installs beneath the stop gap (if you search moen retaining clip in Amazon you will see it). I highly recommend this part to repair your fixture instead of simply replacing it, replacing it fixed the leak, and the original part was from 1972. I hope it lasts another 30-40 years. The part is not cheap, but I think it is easier to replace it than to replace the whole fixture, especially in hard to reach places with limited access.

    Lets face it,this is what it is. When you need it you need it. There is no agonizing selection to ponder. The criteria is cheap and fast (like me) and I was not disappointed with this purchase. In fact there was some bogus recall on this product due to bogus environmental concerns that were in fact not applicable, that made it impossible to obtain this item locally. So I was doubly pleased with this purchase.

    Fit into my moen bathtub valve and replaced the old cartridge nicely. It is amazing being able to turn off the water without an array of hand tools!

    This brass cartridge is superior to the plastic ones I found at Lowes & Home Depot. It has 4 O rings instead of only 2.

    Works and installs as expected. Worth watching a online video or two before installation just to make sure you do it right.

    Update: A few days later...After using the 1200 caetrage, o have noticed that if you want to reduce the water pressure by pushing it in some (with it connected to the Moen shower knob) it starts to make a very loud sound that radiates through the metal pipes. The original caetrage did not do this, as id often use about half the water pressure while washing and then would increase it when rinsing, and the original caetrage was quite regardless of how much water you adjusted it to by pulling or pushing it in. But this all brass 1200 makes a lot of noise unless you have it pulled all the way out with no water being restricted. Once you start to push it in some to reduce the water pressure, the sound gets louder and louder. I was thinking that its because the brass of the cartridge is vibrating against the metal valve assembly. So I decided to try the 1225 model cartridge since the outside is plastic. Today I took out the brass 1200 and put in the plastic 1225. That right there solved the problem. Now I can use it and like before and push it in to reduce the water pressure without any resistance noise coming from it or the pipes. So Ill be using the 1225 instead. Just have to see how long it will last. Originally review: The main headache is having to use a cartridge remover to remove the old one. Mine was Ori from when this house was built in 1986, and over the past year its been harder to turn the shower water knob and now it wont entire turn off (water still comes out some). So I had to replace the cartridge. I went with the 1200 model since it was all brass and not any plastic like the 1225. After I got the original one out, it actually had some plastic on it, though it was never replaced. The new 1200 all brass one looked much better quality. Got it installed and tested it out. Now you can adjust the temp knob with one finger it moves so easily. I just hope it last almost 37 years like the original.
