Review on πŸ”§ Fix Your Delta Single Handle Faucet with the Danco 86970 Cartridge Repair Kit - Durable Brass Construction by Dan Bobbert

Revainrating 2 out of 5

The ball has one hole less than the original Delta.

Ball has one less hole than the original Delta Ball. I decided to give it a try just to see what happens. The ball seems larger than the original (and has fewer holes too) and I couldn't assemble the faucet. However, the seats and top seal fit the Delta faucet. Since the original ball was not brand new but still in pretty good condition, I used an old ball with new rubber parts. It all ended well, but it's not what I thought I bought it for. The cost of ordering Delta rubber parts is approximately the same as the cost of a Danco kit, so ultimately there are no financial disadvantages. Education is a free bonus. Will I buy these again? NO education is enough.

Pros
  • Highly rated by testers for support and durability
Cons
  • Socket required
