 Stuck in Florida August 28, 2010

I received a complimentary replacement cartridge from Moen to correct a small shower head drip. I followed the disassembly instructions to the letter. Upon using the plastic twist out tool Moen sent me, I was applying enough force to cause the plastic to deform. I went to the local Ace Hardware and purchased one of these cartridge pullers. I took it home and tried it out immediately. Applying less twisting force than I used on the free Moen twist out tool caused one of the two metal tabs to break off. I took it right back to Ace Hardware with the receipt and got my money back. The manager said it had not happened before. However, I did want to take a chance on breaking another one. Instead, I opted to purchase a BrassCraft cartridge puller at HomeDepot. I got the cartridge to budge a little bit, but this cartridge puller also started to deform. The hard water won. I am going to call a plumber on Monday. In addition, I going to have the plumber put in some inline valves so I can turn off the water to the shower head without turning off the house main valve. Next time, I will replace the cartridge after 5 years instead of 15 years.
 Buy it from Lowe's June 20, 2010

Excellent product. I used it to pull cartridge of a Moen faucet in 5 minutes. I purchased it (exactly same but made by Danco!)from Lowe's for $15.80.
 Works except if the cartridge retaining ring is loose April 23, 2010

If cartridge is in perfect shape, this tool will work fine. My problem was a shower cartridge mounted horizontally. However, before I got the tool, I tried rotating the cartridge with a punch which somewhat deformed the tabs, thus the tool could not rotate the cartridge to loosen it. I had also used a rod through the handle part and pulled the retaining ring out so that the internal parts came out OK but the cartridge outer shell stubbornly remained stuck. So, when I used the puller part of the tool, it just popped out the retaining ring and again removed the core of the faucet. So, was a waste of money for my purposes. My bet is that it will work fine for sink faucets mounted at an angle, but horizontally mounted shower cartridges will defeat the tool.

I had read from others what a difficult time they had removing a Moen faucet cartridge from a shower valve. I did not want to experience breaking off the cartridge inside the valve as has happened to many others. Many folks recommended buying this puller to remove the cartridge. When I opened up the valve, I could see their point. The cartridge was unlikely to come out easily. The instructions for the puller are a bit vague (and possibly incorrect) on how to use it. But I figured it out and the cartridge came out easily. Now I'm ready for when the other shower valve stops working.
A must have tool !!! March 10, 2010

Don't even try and remove a Moen cartridge without this tool or you will be sorry you did. This tool makes cartridge removal pretty easy. Those Moen cartridges always seem to weld themselves in.
