Fits most bath and shower faucets with a round trim

This is a quality trim. Note, however, that your faucet water lines should not protrude more than 6" from the utility fittings or your panel screws. The brackets meet the lines and require a lot more work or a 3/4" sloped panel to keep them out of the plumbing!

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • -

NO Screws with brass

From some photos (2/21) it seems that the relative screws are supplied. Despite the high price of the polished brass plate, the screws are not included! This is a major inconvenience and needs to be addressed. Maybe the silver chrome plate comes with screws, I don't know. But my polished brass plate didn't come with screws. Great difficulties.

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something

Real metal handles

Covers holes perfectly, it's real metal so a plus. Note that at first glance you may not know which side is up and which is down, or it doesn't matter. The one with a small hole in the bottom center edge is the bottom. I think it's for draining water. I only noticed this after installing everything and trying to minten.

Pros
  • Top marks for grip and durability from testers
Cons
  • So far so good

It works but I hate it.

It has different screw sizes than the shower valve. Once you use the "cover" you will need longer shower valve screws. The cover screws are quite long but not the same size, so you'll have to go to the hardware store again to look for custom-sized screws. If the bolts were the same diameter, they could easily be swapped out. Big failure FFFFF, any mind with a pan could come up with a better script!

Pros
  • Great product
Cons
  • Unbelievable price

Metal, comes with brackets, adds 3/4 of the height and looks great!

Great visual design. I like how it looks. Yes, he looks really great. It's made of metal with a beautiful finish. It comes with hardware and has a 5 inch center hole. This will add 3/4" to the height of the finished wall, so make sure you have clearance in the back and you can adjust the valve by moving 2x4. This is what I had to do to allow the lever/trim to use the stem threads and could achieve fix everything.

Pros
  • Durable finish
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than other picks

Seems genuine

Moen website says it's brass. Moen costs about $30 more and there will likely be additional shipping costs. My plate is metal and the magnet won't stick. The chrome finish is very good and no sharp edges. The sales packaging also looks real. All parts are included. I want it to have foam inside as a water barrier. Water will seep through so I plan to put foam and silicone caulk on it. Leave a small gap at the bottom for drainage. The disc is in a thin box. Revain sent this in an envelope so it…

Pros
  • Good thing
Cons
  • Repair

I'm still in the process of completing my installation, but I wanted to show you what you see installed right away. It's very pretty and does what it's supposed to. I had to purchase a 2" handle extension kit from Moen as my shower valve is deeper into the wall and this plate and mounting plate are a bit thicker to allow the handle to fit through with the original part. The 1920 slab is perfect if you need plumbing but don't want them ruining your bathroom tile with a giant hole

Pros
  • practical matter
Cons
  • replacement availability

I bought a 3570 valve, trim kit T3111.

Bought valve 3570, fairing kit T3111 and fairing 1920. This was what I needed to replace my old two handle shower set. I called Moen before buying the parts from Amozon, where they were cheaper and available earlier than local stores, to make sure all the parts were compatible. At the end of the installation there was a problem with one of the screws holding the fairing in place. I called Moen support to see if I could purchase a replacement screw and they FedEx me a replacement overnight for…

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model

Good product bad instructions

This is a good heavy record with good workmanship. This allowed me to replace my old dual handle valve with a single control valve in the wall with front access only. However, I had some problems. I used a Moen M-PACT pressure balancing valve which is very broad due to the pressure/temperature control capabilities. This left very little space for connecting piping, resulting in a very tedious installation. In hindsight, a Moen Moen 2580 PosiTemp Pressure Balanced Shower Valve, 1/2" PEX could…

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Some flaws
