Saved me a lot and a big headache

Works GREAT! You know, when I bought my house 15 years ago, the faucet leaked. After several attempts to install a rebuild kit I bought at a local hardware store, the best I could do was stop the leak, but the valve wouldn't turn due to crap. After suffering for the past 15 years, my wife asked me to replace the shower. After seeing how much it would cost and how long it would take to replace the shower, instead of ripping out the walls and flooding the entire shower, I made one last attempt to

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than other picks

If you are looking for classic genuine Delta fittings to fix your faucet then this kit is not for you. The part I received is part number RP77739 but does not include the classic white hardware. Plastic cam and rubber seal as shown. Instead, it's a new gray plastic cam that has a thin, fragile O-ring built into it. The listing specifically states that this RP77739 kit includes "2 rubber seats, 2 springs, 2 O-rings, a plastic cam, a rubber gasket, a #212 stainless steel ball and wrench" and theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Some of the flaws

Great recovery kit. How to save time on the road

Avoid OEMs! This is exactly the kit you need. If you have single handle bath/shower delta valves that drip a little when closed, simply take this complete rebuild kit and replace all the included components. It's easy to do, and since it's from Delta, it will work. Although there are kits from other manufacturers, based on my experience in apartment buildings and places where multiple of the same things need preventative maintenance, I've always found that you want to use OEM kits rather thanโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Top marks for tester support and durability
Cons
  • Useless features

A simple fix for an aging bathroom fixture!

We ordered this kit to repair a single handle bathroom faucet in our home that was built in 1976 with original plumbing. Installation was as easy as can be and I also used waterproof plumbing lube when assembling. The faucet works beautifully - so silky and smooth now. I liked it so much I decided to restore our shower faucet but got impatient and ran to Lowes to see if they had this set. They didn't have the OEM Delta kit and I bought the branded aftermarket kit they carried which was similarโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Not Sure

Be careful which kit you are looking for

So a few things.1. I am a very good Johnny homeowner and can generally fix almost anything.2. I ordered original Delta products from the factory so things will fit and last.3. This set does not have a small slot on the side of the metal ball assembly, wtf4. The top piece of plastic that holds the ball together, with a small tab on the side that fits into the brass part of the faucet. Well, the tab is twice the size of the faucet slot, so I can't use that item either. 5. Put some of the oldโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • boring packaging

Quality has gone down

The RP77739 kit content image on Revain is very outdated. I've attached a better picture. I've used the same kit before with no problems, but lately I've had problems. Out of the last three I bought, only one was good. One set was missing two pieces (easy to see as I ordered two sets at once). A set looked good but once installed the faucet was slow to drip when the knob was turned fully clockwise to the off position. I took it apart again and everything looked fine so I replaced the ball withโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great overall performance
Cons
  • Unbelievable price

Redesigned works better than the original

I bought this because a 20 year old bathroom faucet had had its seals failed and I needed to either try to fix it or replace the whole faucet with a new one. I already disassembled the blender so I decided to fix it. The faucet kit arrived quickly and I started installing it that same evening. I thought that I might have to search the internet for instructions, but found that the instruction manual was printed on the box along with the label. I looked at the parts and wondered for a moment if I

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Negative impression
