The 14 year old OEM push/pull plunger style switch-over valve failed to fully engage or disengage. Purchased and install this simple twist valve and the issue was immediately solved. What was also good about this seller, the replacement kit included a small roll of plumbers tape for thread wrapping.While I had the shower head removed, I soaked it in white vinegar to break up the lime scale buildup that hasn't overly evident from standing in the shower.The entire "repair" process took about 15 minutes to do. The twist value is much easier to use than the push/pull OEM valve. Product is a heavy duty brass so it will have a long lifetime. While I did experience a slight decrease in water flow at the first time use, the flow rate did increase back to normal after the hot water flushed out the loosened lime scale. This is a recommended product.

Seems to be a high quality product. Control mechanism has a very smooth, tight motion. Installation requires a narrow open end or adjustable wrench to fit the built in flats. If you use channel locks, you will bugger up the finish. That's a minor thing. Of more concern is it leaks at the swivel point near the shower pipe. It is loose and if left that way, you cannot set the position of the swivel where you want the hose connection to point. There appears to some sort of internal left handed screw to tighten that swivel connection, but then it doesn't swivel and the hose connection points wherever it ends up when you tighten the product on the shower pipe. There were no instructions included with it. I returned to Amazon, requesting a replacement product. The replacement was clearly a used/returned item as it had teflon tape on it and the swivel connection was removed and screwed onto the other (incorrect) end of the item. I returned the replacement item and gave up, ordering a different product.

Nice heft and solidly built. Works great with hand-held shower and overhead rain shower head.

I bought this to replace another diverter valve that had started spraying water at the joints. This diverter valve is solidly constructed - much heavier than the one I replaced. The diverter knob on this works smoothly (much nicer than my old diverter valve on which you had to pull up or push down a knob to change the flow). The only flaw I have found, as others have noted, is that the two threaded nipples are very short. Two rubber washers are included. I used one to seat the diverter valve onto the shower arm - that was less of an issue, as there are plenty of threads on my shower arm to tightly seat the diverter valve. I used the other washer to attach my shower head to the diverter valve. In doing that the female coupling on my shower head completely bottomed out against the diverter valve. So far it seems snug enough to not leak. In attaching the hose from my hand held shower I used a rubber washer that I already had. I could not get this connection tight enough to not leak, but the water merely dribbles out along the hose, so it’s not a big issue.

This diverter is so much better than the push/pull valve that failed after several years of use. It works smoothly and doesn't leak between the two outputs. It is solidly constructed and should last longer than I do.

It started out working very well, and looked great. Seemed perfect. Then it sprung a leak at the female end of the connector where the gasket is. Not fixable either. Poor workmanship.
