Toilet Tank Flush Lever Replacement: American Standard, Straight Arm, White - Upgrade Your Bathroom Functionality! Review

After my original lever broke beyond repair I decided to buy this one as a replacement. This lever and handle are angled so the lever leans against the tank and SCRATCHES it EVERY FLUSH. I have to push the handle down and then gently pull it back, otherwise the lever just holds the flush valve open, causing the water to "flow".

I was very disappointed with the poor quality of this product. The installation went well, but during installation I noticed that everything was made of relatively thin plastic. In fact, it broke after four months of use. The broken part was in the pivot mechanism, which is located in the tank wall. The thin plastic collar that accounts for most of the flushing action's torque was shattered beyond repair. I'll look for something stronger, for a more durable replacement.

Some reviews criticize it as "cheap" or unreliable. But that's the same quality as the big national retailers. I just installed this and it works great. I can't say how durable it will prove. But don't shy away from it for fear it's fragile. A CAUTION is that the lock nut was very difficult to remove to install the lever - it was screwed on very tight. But thanks to patience and constant effort, it is now doing the job it was intended for.

To be honest this product is junk and overpriced. Lightweight, flimsy plastic that doesn't work. Installed manually, lever will not return to neutral, loose, loose and unreliable. The handlebars are too short, even with my "universal" pull chain set to max length on the new Flapper, the tank runs continuously, albeit slowly/intermittently, costing me a $400 septic tank pump in a couple of weeks. It's a shame that sellers generally have the right to sell such junk. All in all it cost me $459…

I'm surprised by the number of positive reviews for this product. It's cheap plastic junk. While it's certainly easy to install (no instructions are provided, although easy to understand), it's designed so that the handle cannot be fully tightened. There is a gap between the lever bar and the point of its connection with the handle, so it constantly dangles. I had to wrap a rubber band around this area to alleviate the problem. The rod is made from a hard plastic that will not give at all, so…

I went with an all plastic flush lever because the metal (brass?) in my old toilet was rusted and falling apart . I lived with a lid on my toilet tank and just pulled on the chain for a week until I decided to order from Revain as I didn't have time to go to the store. Be careful when ordering a new lever with the right angle. Looks like my old one was at that angle but I had to unscrew the tube to put this one in and then the top didn't sit flat. Also note that for the left arm at least, the…

Someone installed a right angle metal lever and bent it to attach to the flush mechanism. This made it difficult to flush the toilet and then the connection between the handle and the lever came loose, probably due to the extra stress that wasn't designed to flex. standard toilet. EDIT based on experience: Two identical toilets in my house, used about the same, and I just bought the 5th new one in 18 months. They continue to break where they are weak so they can be easily trimmed. i need full…

I was able to find this replacement arm at Revain for about half the price at our local Ace hardware store. Great price BUT the reason I needed another replacement arm is because they are very cheaply made. We just replaced our toilet a few months ago and I've already had to replace it 3 times! First the crank arm (turned on the outside and broken (plastic nuts/bolts etc) I tried tightening these nuts and they were tight but still wobbly. The second and third time the plastic lever broke. This…
