Was not the right fit for our tub/ shower faucet controll. We ended up buying what we needed at an Ace Hardware Store.

Sometimes you get what you py for and sometimes the quality is just as good as the more expensive name brand. So far so good. Rebuilt my kitchen lever faucet and worked first time. No drips or leaks. Some plumbers tell you to stick with the OEM parts at all costs, but, I can't complain about this product. Easy to install and most mechanically inclined home handymen can get the job done in about 3 minutes. Just make sure you have a tube of silicone grease for the O rings when you do it. And SHUT OFF the WATER first> :-)

I undertook this job because our kitchen faucet was dripping. Once I turned off the water under the sink, I removed the faucet and the other hardware (check YouTube for a video), cleaned up everything chrome, reassembled with O-rings, springs, and bushings from this kit, and turned the water back on.3 things:1.) this kit doesn't come with a new ball fitting. In my opinion you don't have to replace this, just clean it. Another kit available on Amazon does include a replacement ball if you want to go that way, but that kit is a bit more expensive.2.) This kit contains parts for different kinds of Delta faucets. Therefore the O-rings come in two thicknesses, there are two sizes for the springs, and only one of the nylon compression caps will fit the groove in your faucet. Just use the old parts as a model for which ones you need from this kit of new parts.3. You will need three tools: a medium screwdriver to help you position the new springs; channel locks or similar to help you unscrew the chrome compression knob (and maybe to turn off your water under the sink); and an Allen wrench to get the handle off and tighten it when you put it back on. The kit contains the Allen Wrench.Overall, this is a good kit that did the trick. No more drips in our kitchen sink. I think most people can do this job.PS. I didn't have any faucet grease on hand, so bought a small tube to go with this purchase in order to lubricate threads. I think this made the job go just a little bit smoother.

So glad Amazon sells this kit. Found it a bit difficult locating it elsewhere. Took a bit of work to get it installed correctly. You have to be very careful how much you tighten at the finish. Works great.

Not great quality. For $5 more you should buy the genuine Delta RP3614 kit.- As others have mentioned, the springs are slightly longer than the originals - re-use the originals or the valve will be too tight when reassembled.- Also, the fatter o-rings for the kitchen spout (replaces Delta RP25) are slightly thinner - mine leaked very slightly.- Cheap hex wrench (silver is Danco, black is Delta in photo): may need to be filed a bit to fit. Also, the hex screw on my handle had seized and the Danco hex wrench twisted while trying to loosen it.- Others have complained that the Danco parts don't last as long - I will f/u in a year.BTW, Delta RP77738 (Danco 86970) and Delta RP36147 kits will also work (they include the ball).Tips on replacement:-Remove the aerator before turning off the shut-off valves to keep it from getting clogged.-Close the drain or stuff a rag into it to keep from losing parts.-Use a rag on your channel locks to keep from marring.-Clean debris from the inside of the valve and the ball. To remove mineral deposits use vinegar or GENTLE scraping.-If Danco springs too long, reuse originals.-Replace all the rubber components, even if they're not leaking.-If replacing o-rings on kitchen spout, apply a little silicone grease.-You can adjust the tightness of the valve at the top using the prongs on the other end of the hex tool.-Before reinstalling aerator run hot and cold to flush any crud.

Totally fixed our 20 year old faucet. Before ordering, I had pulled apart and lubricated some of the original parts, which gave me an idea for which kit to buy for our faucet. If you're wondering what you need, take your faucet apart first so you can compare your parts with the photo.I misused some of the larger O-rings to stop the leak around the faucet cylinder, and kept some of the old plastic bits that were still in good shape. I'm so happy that for this low price we now have the sanity of a quiet kitchen sink; I hope this product is still available when I need to fix it in another 20 years!

The product seems fine but one issue I have is with the delivery. The part came in a pillow pack envelope and someone had cut it open before it arrived (see photo). I am assuming once they saw what it was they returned it to the package and delivered it. I wonder what they would have done if it was something they wanted.

I used this to fix a leaky kitchen faucet. The included instructions were helpful and I also watched some YouTube videos. I’m sure this inexpensive kit saved me several hundred dollars.
