NOT A PERFECT FIT - spend the extra $5 for genuine Delta parts
Not great quality. For $5 more you should buy the genuine Delta RP3614 kit.- As others have mentioned, the springs are slightly longer than the originals - re-use the originals or the valve will be too tight when reassembled.- Also, the fatter o-rings for the kitchen spout (replaces Delta RP25) are slightly thinner - mine leaked very slightly.- Cheap hex wrench (silver is Danco, black is Delta in photo): may need to be filed a bit to fit. Also, the hex screw on my handle had seized and the Danco hex wrench twisted while trying to loosen it.- Others have complained that the Danco parts don't last as long - I will f/u in a year.BTW, Delta RP77738 (Danco 86970) and Delta RP36147 kits will also work (they include the ball).Tips on replacement:-Remove the aerator before turning off the shut-off valves to keep it from getting clogged.-Close the drain or stuff a rag into it to keep from losing parts.-Use a rag on your channel locks to keep from marring.-Clean debris from the inside of the valve and the ball. To remove mineral deposits use vinegar or GENTLE scraping.-If Danco springs too long, reuse originals.-Replace all the rubber components, even if they're not leaking.-If replacing o-rings on kitchen spout, apply a little silicone grease.-You can adjust the tightness of the valve at the top using the prongs on the other end of the hex tool.-Before reinstalling aerator run hot and cold to flush any crud.

Looks easy but be very careful.
Danco has been around for a long time and it seems that getting Delta parts is easier through Danco than Delta. It's an easy rebuild if the Cap nut is removable. The cap nut frequently seizes and over turning the nut (counter clock wise) could twist the delicate parts inside the valve. Make sure you make a mark on the sleeve with a laundry marker at the top of the sleeve BEFORE you begin your counter clock wise turn. If that mark moves, you are permanently damaging the valve!! The solution to a seized cap nut is to use a small hack saw to cut the cap nut beginning at the stem and traveling back toward the knurled surface of the cap nut. Be careful you don't cut the male threads of the valve body! Once you have cut through the cap nut gently pry the cap nut apart at the cut.

Worked for Me
Totally fixed our 20 year old faucet. Before ordering, I had pulled apart and lubricated some of the original parts, which gave me an idea for which kit to buy for our faucet. If you're wondering what you need, take your faucet apart first so you can compare your parts with the photo.I misused some of the larger O-rings to stop the leak around the faucet cylinder, and kept some of the old plastic bits that were still in good shape. I'm so happy that for this low price we now have the sanity of a quiet kitchen sink; I hope this product is still available when I need to fix it in another 20 years!

Worked Perfectly on my Delta Bathroom Faucets
All I needed was the rounded washer that seals on top of the ball in the faucet, but I could not find that available separately. That part in this kit worked perfectly for me, and all the other parts are superfluous. The washer seemed like it might be a bit thicker and fit tighter, but that was probably just because my old ones were so badly worn.The included wrench does work fine, and is handy to have it right there, even though I have plenty of wrenches already. It is plenty strong, and held up fine to even very corroded set screws where I need to use pliers on the wrench to break the screw loose.

Did not fix the issue.
I used this kit to fix my Peerless single handle kitchen faucet from leaking from around the faucet handle. It fixed that problem but now the faucet drips. It is hard to find the sweet spot to get it to stop dripping. It will stop but not normal. I have to be honest, the faucet is a little on the old side, and I think maybe I should of just replaced the whole unit.Don't waste your money I had tried 3 of these and same problem constant drip. So I bought the OEM and worked perfectly, yes it is 2 times the cost but stick with the real deal.

Multiple issues with this kit
There are multiple issues with this kit:1. The hex key does not fit (it's slightly bigger).2. The Cam Assembly does not fit perfectly, resulting in leaks on the hot water side. unless you close the faucet from the cold water side. I initially thought it was a problem with the seats and springs, but the leak continued even after changing them. The design is different from the original Delta part.3. The springs are taller than original and the seats also slightly bigger.

5 Year Leak Fixed
There are a few extra parts but if you buy just the parts you need separately, you will probably spend more money. Some tips:1. Watch the U-tube video by Henry Bush Heating and Air as you go along.2. Use silicone plumbers grease on all the rubber parts.3. There are two big o-rings for the faucet stem. You will have two big o-rings, one cam, two springs left over when you are finished.3. The springs and seats will stick up a little out of their holes. They won't fit tightly4. Align the slot in the ball with the pin inside the body5. Align the lug on the cam with the slot in the faucet before you tighten down the cap assembly6. You have to hold down the cam assembly to keep it in the slot and to start tightening the cap. I used a long 10mm socket inside the cap and over the stem to do this.7. If there is a leak when you finish, tighten the cap a little more.8. When you are finished, remove the aerator and run the faucet, both hot and cold, to get the crud that you dislodged out.These Danco parts fit my Delta faucet fine.

Almost worked.
Inexpensive solution to dripping which I've used successfully in the past, though more frequently in recent years. The faucet was a kitchen single lever faucet. It was about 30-35 years old. The kit contains a variety of pieces, allowing you to select those needed fro your particular repair and trashing the rest. In expensive solution. In this instance, reassembly resulted in dripping; repeated disassembly and reassembly reduced dripping, but did not eliminate it. All previous purchases of such kits did solve the dripping problem. However, given the age of the faucet set, I ended up replacing it this time.

This item saved me from opening up a wall!
The item was exactly like described. I had an old Danz shower faucet that froze. All of the parts fit my faucet except for the main washer that sits on the stainless steel ball. It just wouldn't fit right into the white plastic guide and also seal against the ball. Make sure you keep all useable original parts. It would have been nice for the kit to include the adjusting ring the magic tool tightens as the threads on mine were damaged. It's all working now. Thank you.

Ce kit ne convient pas.
Ne pas commander ce kit si vous possèdez une robineterie Delta. Plutôt, appelez directement Delta. C'est ce que j'ai fait, et j'ai reçu les kit necessaire voir la photo RP4993G & 2X RP25513.

Worked perfectly
I used this to fix a leaky kitchen faucet. The included instructions were helpful and I also watched some YouTube videos. I’m sure this inexpensive kit saved me several hundred dollars.

As it should be...
Tout était là, outil, pièce. Parfait pour l'entretien d'un mitigeur Delta/Peerless.Everything was there, tool, parts. Nice for repair and maintenance for single handle Delta/Peerless.

Good product
Seems to be product and the piece that I used seems to function well so far. The drip it was purchased to deal with has stopped.
