Review on Moen Brantford Decorative Toilet Tank Lever in Oil Rubbed Bronze - YB2201ORB by Bryan Hill

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Bad Design in Rough Plumbing

Most toilet cistern levers are one-piece, with a handle attached directly to the lever that raises the damper. On the lever of the Moen Brantford tank, the handle is attached to the lever with a screw. When you press on the handle, the screw loosens, so the hand stops moving when you press on the handle. The toilet bowl levers should work like a swing: one side goes down, the other up. Moen's lever is like a seesaw with a big screw in the middle: one side goes down and the weight on the other side causes the screw to loosen, so nobody gets off the ground (or, in this case, the toilet doesn't). flushes or does not flush completely.) The toilet tank lever had to be swapped out for the Lowe's lever. It works fine. Actually, it's better than the Moen because it has a rubber washer that helps keep the grip in place on the tank. I don't understand the good reviews for this product. If anyone has any installation advice or a solution, I'd love to hear it.

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
