Brantford Oil Rubbed Bronze Posi-Temp Pressure Balancing Shower Valve Trim Kit Valve Required, T2153ORB

This faucet is awesome and was a very nice upgrade to two of our bathrooms. I bought one and was so satisfied with the quality that I bought a second to replace in our other bathroom. Moen products are great and they do a good job of not over-complicating the instructions or the workings of their plumbing products. I’m an avid DIYer and It was easy to changeout the 1990’s Moen fixtures in the shower (still in good shape, just outdated). I even had to replace the posi-temp cartridge in one shower (due to age/restricted water flow), but was easy after watching a video online. The handle, escutcheon, shower arm, and spout are all (heavy) solid metal. The finish is a nice bronzey brown without the orange streaks found on other hardware. Very satisfied with the quality, look, value, and outcome of this product! Pricing was better than the big box stores and delivery was fast thanks to Prime! We will be buying another set soon for our upcoming master bathroom renovation.

Nice finish and great brand. Highly recomend these faucets

I purchased and installed this trim kit to match the new Moen faucet and refinished cabinetry in my master bathroom. the installation is very easy and can be handled by anyone with even modest skills.Keep in mind that this is a trim kit only and does not include the rough-in valves or plumbing.My only gripe is that the finish is several shades lighter than the sink faucet and hardware (also from Moen, but a slightly different style). However, the two are not side-by-side and color is close enough to not be glaring.Be sure to use lots of teflon tape on the shower head pipe threads to avoid leaks. The shower head is a low flow design so it will induce a pressure rise in the shower piping, which might lead to a lead (and damage to your wall).

I upgraded my bathroom and when I did I went from Brass to Nickel for everything. I had Moen brass tub fixtures so, rather than have to have a hole cut in my wall to replace the valve I opted to go for a face lift. I found a Moen product in Home Depot and purchased that first. First of all, a good part of that product was plastic. Secondly, it was a screw on faucet, while the one I was replacing was a slide on. I should mention that I did call Moen before I tried to install this and they told me as long as it was a Pot-Temp valve it would work with it. Well... kind of wrong, since the faucet out of the box would not work in my bath tub, without modifications.So I got on Amazon and found this product. It indicated the faucet was a slide on and it worked with a Posi-Temp valve. I received the package quickly. The first thing I noticed was that it was metal, not plastic. I installed it in about 15 minutes. I've been very happy with it. It was a better product for less money than I would have spent at Home Depot and required no modifications, as I would have had to do with the Home Depot product. I would recommend to anyone.

Even more than how much I like the item itself, I was beyond impressed by Moen's customer service. My item looked beautiful, but I couldn't locate a screw for the tub spout. I called Moen and they immediately sent me a replacement spout free of charge. It was one of the best customer service experiences I've had in years - took 5 minutes and they did more than I was expecting (I called wanting to buy a screw and they sent a whole new part free.) The new part arrived with the screw installed so I couldn't miss it. The final install looks great and I will definitely buy from Moen again because they went above and beyond to address my concern.

So this is really nice looking. I just tiled my shower with Talavera tile and have replaced all the fixtures. I have to give this only 3 stars because after it was installed it would not turn completely off. The faucet dripped. I did not have time to send this back to Amazon and get a replacement so we had to try and fix it. First, the contractor thought it might be a cartridge, so he went and got a Moen replacement one ($12 plus tax) and that did not do the trick. So then he went and got the brass plunger part ($40 plus tax) and that did the trick. Between the hourly cost and my parts cost I spent $105 to get this working properly which was slightly more than I paid for this set. Additionally, it cost me a couple of hours of my personal time. I got on chat w/ Amazon to ask for a refund, they were only able to give me $40 which does not even recoup the cost of the parts I purchased. So, if you are on any sort of timeline, then I would not recommend purchasing this through Amazon. Instead, find it at a local store where you can make exchanges in the same day.

I bought this kit with the idea that any moen product would fit another moen product. WRONG! Posi-temp and moentrol don't mix. You can get an adapter that let's plate behind the handle fit the screw holes on the valve here http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002C59VTC/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00 . The posi-temp handles don't fit moentrol valves either and there is no adapter. You can get a Kingsley handle that fits moentrol here http://www.amazon.com/Moen-114344ORB-Kingsley-Moentrol-Handle/dp/B000KQDNC6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1357152304&sr=8-1&keywords=114344ORB . The diverter and shower head aren't a problem. My order is still being shipped so I haven't had a chance to actually try it out but it should work. Considering that I got this kit opened box from warehouse deals for $78, the kingsley handle for $30, and the adapter for $19, that's a heck of a lot cheaper than the kingsley moentrol trim kit for $240! http://www.amazon.com/Moen-T3113ORB-Kingsley-Moentrol-without/dp/B000TF94PI/ref=pd_bxgy_hi_text_y The main difference is the diverter. I do like the kingsley diverter better but not for $100 or even the $54 that I could pay to buy it separately http://www.amazon.com/Moen-3808ORB-Kingsley-Diverter-Rubbed/dp/B0012C2UEE/ref=sr_1_1?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1357153021&sr=1-1&keywords=kingsley+diverter Hope this helps!

This is a very stylish and sturdy shower faucet set. We love the brush nickel color. Make sure that your tub spout is not threaded already, or this piece will not fit over it.

Beautiful and easy to install!

Finished up my bathroom remodel with this, looks and works great.

Easy to install work fantastic

Very impressed!! We had to cut the pipe a bit but that wasn't a problem at all. The cap that goes on the wall at the end of the shower head doesn't fit as the bolt that holds the arm is on the outside wall but again nothing major! Overall really satisfied!!

Love the look! You need to buy fixings that match the plumbing already installed. We didn't know that and it set us back a bit.
