> 3 dayProduct 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.

Greater than one weekWorks great. This is a hard to find item and it is not found in the big box stores. I did need a cartridge puller to remove my old unit.

> 3 dayIf you are the original owner and can show receipts, Moen will send one free of charge. Otherwise, this is a good deal on an original Moen part. These brass cartridges work much better for me than the plastic ones commonly found in the big box stores.

> 3 dayI purchased this directly from Amazon (not a vendor selling through Amazon) for $22.00. It looks entirely different in appearance than the 2 year old authentic Moen cartridge (purchased from Moen) it replaces. This one is stamped M-O-E-N in big letters on the brass. The packaging is also extremely different than the previous authentic one. Considering that Moen sells their cartridge for $24.00, I hope I have not been duped in buying a Chinese copy.

> 3 dayBe careful in ordering this model. If your faucet was manufactured after the mid 90s this will eventually leak. It is intended for older models. For a modern single handle faucet order the 1225 version for your replacement. Amazon does not make this clear In their description but Moen does on their website.

> 3 dayIf your moen is a push pull for on/off and then turn for temperature this is the one you need.

> 3 dayI did not see the name Moen on the cartridge, so it may be a fake. BUT I installed it anyway and it works great. My shower valve is over 30 years old. The center stem came out easily but to get the brass cartridge out I had to use a makeshift puller. I used a 1/2 tap to thread the center of old brass cartridge. Then used a 1/2 bolt and 3/4 socket as the puller. It has to be a 1/2 drive socket so the bolt can go through it. The bolt I had was too long so I used a smaller size 1/2 drive socket as a spacer. I cleaned the inside of the old valve with Lime-A-Way and a old toothbrush then put a little Vaseline on the rubber o-rings before I inserted the new cartridge. It was more work then I planned but still easier than tearing out the wall and replacing the valve. If it is a sink faucet you may be easier to buy a new faucet. I would suggest watching a youtube.com video on replacing a Moen 1200 cartridge before you start.
