          Easy replacement for old acrylic knob
          Took less than 10 minutes to replace an old acrylic knob. Took off the cover to remove the set screw. Then removed the old knob. Used some CLR to remove salts from hard water. Then followed the two step instructions to put in the new handle. Looks much better with the new knob.

            This shower handle was perfect. The fit was perfect and very easy to attach with no tools required. The handle helped the existing surrounding fixture look like new and updated my older shower very well. And the price was awesome!

            Great replacement
            We've had our Moen shower handle for over 10 years and as the years went by, turning the handle got progressively difficult. I have hard water, so part of it is the problem. I also know that I have to replace the cartridge one of these days. And today, as I was trying to figure out what to replace it with, I broke the plastic stem that connected to the cartridge. Looked at Moen's website and found out what model I had, then looked at Home Depot and see what they had. Found this and bought it. It is a perfect replacement and easy to install.

                    When I first put on the adapter, it would hit the screw head that holds in the large round backplate. I had to permanently remove the screw to allow the adapter to turn on the water past a trickle, so the backplate is now held in place by one screw and the caulk. Then the set screw would not pass through the adapter, so I had to loosen the adapter screw and back the adapter out about 1/8" to align the adapter's set screw hole with the holes in the handle. That leaves it loose on the shaft. Also, the set screw threads in the handle got messed up with all the on-and-off attempts to get it to work. It works now, but there is side-to-side wobble in the handle, and I have a feeling I am going to be replacing the whole thing again before very long. I might from this review sound like a klutz with tools, but I consider myself to be moderate to above-average with my tools and know-how. This replacement was a pain in the neck.

                    Hello ROGER and thank you for the feedback you posted on the Home Depot website. The Moen Posi-Temp Handle Kit is designed to be installed with the Moen Posi-Temp valve only. According to your description of the issue you are currently experiencing, your valve may be installed too far back into the wall for the Moen Posi-Temp Handle Kit and you may need to purchase a handle extension kit. We also would suggest confirming the type of Moen valve you are installing the Moen Posi-Temp Handle Kit on. The Moen Posi-Temp Handle Kit has been thoughtfully designed, manufactured under strict quality guidelines and is backed by our lifetime limited warranty to the original product purchaser. Our product specialists are available for pre-purchase, installation or warranty assistance. They can be reached at 1-800-289-6636 and are currently available Monday through Friday from 8:00 am – 7:00 pm Eastern Time. Moen
