Customer Reviews for Delta Pair of Cross Handles in Polished Brass for 2-Handle Faucets-DISCONTINUED

This review is for the Cassidy Cross Handles but applies to these as well. I ordered both styles because I was not sure which I would like better with my existing faucet. I tried them both and ended up choosing the Cassidy. However these other handles went on just as easily and I recommend them as well. Easy way to update those old acrylic handles! My 35 year old Delta faucet still worked great and looked great, but the acrylic handles were 1980's style. I did not want to try to replace the whole faucet since it might be hard to get something that old apart without needing a plumber. Also I find some things were made better years ago - so "Why fix what is not broken?"So I just bought these new handles and had them on in 5 minutes! I had tried the Delta lever type handles first. The lever handles went on just as easily, but the levers did line up the same because the existing stems for the handles were rotated slightly from each other. I did not want to try to pull the stems all apart so I just ordered the cross handles which makes the alignment issue not really noticeable.

It's a set of faucet handles. They were installed without a hitch. They successfully turn the water on/off and change the temp.

If you have a Delta faucet, you need to use Delta parts. "universal" handles won't work. Great replacement for those ugly plastic handles that came with the faucet.
