Review on Moen 137401 Replacement Part by Jeff Dabney

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Didn't even know there was such a thing.

So I'm going to show that I don't know much about plumbing and faucet maintenance because I really had no idea that this little detail is so relevant. I knew that the sink I used the most was depressurizing while the other was flowing perfectly. I also knew that it was most likely due to mineral buildup from hard water, and it was used significantly more than the others. I've looked into other faucets that only had a mesh-like material, and things like the CLR and a toothbrush were effective at solving this build-up and pressure problem. Well, apparently not on my Moen stash. I didn't even know this aerator existed until these attempts, as well as others, made no difference. Good old YouTube to the rescue. Swapped the part and it's brand new. I'd give it 5 stars and will probably be crucified by the pros for that comment, but the wrench that comes with the kit was more of a nuisance to me than regular needle nose pliers. Now I'm educated and it's not a lesson I'll soon forget.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
