Single Function Pressure Balance Temperature Cartridge 10664 Review

Ordered two valves, one failed on the first day of installation. The seller exchanged the valve for a new one. The second valve failed after a week. I have now ordered an original Delta cartridge valve to replace the new Danco valve. The blocks did not meet my expectations. I expected the valves to work as they should. The problem is the valve has to turn 1/4 to turn it on and off, but it turns 360. This caused my 9 year old daughter to burn her feet, not knowing she was going too far, to turn…

I have to repeat what the other bad review says: you get what you pay for. I was able to replace the original cartridge fairly easily, but found I couldn't raise the heat limiter as high as the old one. It was good enough so I agreed. Fast forward two months and my daughter is using the shower. She's not very tall, maybe 90 pounds, and she leans on the handle after knocking it off. Cotton can be heard in the cartridge and now the handle rotates freely and it is very difficult to turn it off…

bought at the end of December 2020 and today April 18 I'm replacing it for the second time. Only this time I'm replacing it with a Delta OEM model. Like most of you DIY enthusiasts, I always like to try a low-tech alternative to the expensive OEM original. This DANCO product is very difficult to install and four months later even more difficult to remove. Fits very tight. And I mean tight. Last month the valve knob started rotating 360 degrees and the temperature adjustment screw is not well…

This cartridge worked great on my single handle kitchen sink faucet which leaked from time to time. Installation was easy - lots of YouTube videos will show you the process. I did the following: 1. Close the water2. Remove the plug covering the set screw on the handle. 3. Remove the decorative (I have matte stainless steel) cover from the brass body of the cartridge4. Remove the cartridge's brass body (I needed an adjustable wrench to loosen it)5. Pull out the cartridge and replace it (pay…

I got a Delta OEM valve two years ago and it started dripping so I figured if I got two years out of the valve body I might as well try to save some money. This valve is the same as the Delta, but it feels like they're saving a little money for the thickness of the plastic body. However, it fits like an OEM, powers on and off like an OEM, and is configured like an OEM Delta. The plastic body should show very little wear as most of it is in the metal body of the shower. As long as the rubber…

Hello, I never write reviews but was hoping to save people some frustration. This should have been a good option for discounted homeowners as they say it took me hours of my life and an OEM Delta Valve to fix my leak. When I wanted to change this set the rear seal/spring/plastic part was very difficult to get out and required pliers for final removal. I didn't notice this at the time, but it was due to some mineral buildup on the front and back of the o-rings on this part. The Danco part uses…
