Moen Brantford Chrome Posi-Temp Shower Trim Kit with 8-Inch Eco-Performance Rainshower, Valve Required, T2252EP

This is a great replacement for an existing Moen shower as it uses the exact same valve, so all you have to do is swap the exterior hardware. I paired it with a gooseneck extension arm so that we could get a true rainfall feel and it's just right. Not too soft, not too hard. It does drip for quite a while after shutting it off, but it does eventually stop so I know it's not leaking.One note - you'll need a 7/64" hex wrench in order to remove the set screw from the old shower handle (as well as to install the new handle) and this set does *not* come with it. 3/32" is too small, and 1/8" is too large. It really does need to be 7/64"

Bought this package for a complete renovation, as I really needed the handle and its parts. $90 for the handle-parts only is also way too much. The extra $20 for the head and matching tube was acceptable. This shower head is large, and the water is quiet leaving it. Our well ise set for 60/40, with a 75 gallon pressure tank. The volume versus pressure is reduced, I presume because of the size of the head. The kids like the look, but would prefer a head with a little more "push." We will likely change the head to a remote-hose style. Assembly of the handle and its components is straight forward. Each piece arrived individually protected as to not mar the rubbed-bronze finish.

The handle is so heavy that it won't stay on "hot" or "cold," but rather slides back into the down position. I just got off the phone with Moen customer service (after noting on their website that this is a common problem), and they told me that my (new) factory-lubricated Moen cartridge was the problem. I could try to scrape some lubrication off the cartridge, or I could wait and hope the problem fixes itself, but otherwise I was out of luck. I advise buying a model without such a heavy handle.

Love the large shower head. Need to leave the water flow restricter if removed it causes water hammering. Water flow is decent with water saving restricter but needed a few seconds to build pressure. The shower designed for water saving. Due to the larger head size, water drips out for a longer period than smaller Moen heads after shut off but it seems normal and water seals after. These were trim replacements only, no plumbing was required. Must have the same type of Moen valve to work.

I bought this as an Amazon return so I got it for $140 but I would never pay more than that, ever! The stream coming out of the head isn’t that great. I think the new full price of this set is around $300 which is definitely not worth it. But it fit the valve and that was important to my husband so we are keeping it but it’s just in one of the spare bathrooms.

Nice, matches the other Moen accessories, not particularly happy with the handle, can't seem to get it tight on the cartridge stem. The screw is tight but the handle is still wobbly.

I replaced a Moen unit with this unit and it was a seamless transition. I was hesitant for a while because I kept reading the reviews and people spoke of gaps and it not fitting as it should. This was a direct replacement and took maybe 10 minutes to install. It was very cut and dry.

Fits great, quality as expected. Easy installation from existing fittings. My existing shower valve worked fine, except that it's inverted 180 degrees so that the inscriptions on the faucet plate for "hot" and "cold" are now opposite and the plate cannot be flipped, it only fits one way. Not worth changing my existing plumbing & not a huge deal to me-- just gotta give people the head's up! :)

Quality is good. Working good
