Works great!!
I bought this for a client's show. It was easy to attach to the coordinating and pieces and does exactly what it's suppose to. Great finish and working piece. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

So glad
So glad to receive the new Delta 50650 Shower Arm Diverter. A few years ago, we remodeled our bathroom and had a walk-in-shower installed. I had purchased a Delta Shower unit. The plumber that installed the unit got us a Delta Shower Arm Diverter. A few months ago the diverter arm quit working. I checked locally, but could not find the diverter arm, so I contacted Delta online and I found the diverter arm I needed. I am so glad to have the shower working properly once again.

Works like it should
This specific item was purchased for a client to use in their shower and it works as it should. They haven't had any issues and it looks good too. Works for us!

Delta Customer service is the best!
I have used this product for 7 years and it has failed. Called Delta and they are sending out a replacement. These guys have my loyalty because of there customer service. None better in any business. They always seem to do what needs to be done to make the customer happy.

Unit is attractive.
We had this unit installed as part of our bathroom renovation. It was made by Alsons Corp., a company that Delta has bought. From the start, setting the diverter to allow use of both the shower head and hand-held units was VERY difficult. Occasionally, the unit would slip out of that combined position and to reset it was a bear of a job! Recently, it has stopped holding in the combined position, no matter how often we set/reset it. The method for setting the position is rather dumb in my opinion. We won't be replacing this unit with its similar counterpart. The lever type of setting makes more sense, but from one review I've read, the lever is made of composite material, whereas the rest of the unit is made from brass. From experience, I simply don't trust composites. So I'll be looking for another brand for replacing our unit.

Great at first...
I have had this diverter installed along with my delta shower head for a little over a year and now I can barely pull the knob out. I have to get a step stool to get above it to get some leverage and even with that the know only pulls out part way so there is hardly any pressure coming from the handheld at all. I can barely rinse the walls down with it. I thought it was great at first but now it's a complete waste!

Hard to use
From the time the item was installed with a new shower setup it was very hard to operate. My wife was unable to get it work numerous times. I finally called Delta and they are sending me a replacement unit, hopefully this one will work better. Think I would recommend the units with a lever to switch between modes versus this one with the button.

Get the U4929 Diverter Instead
The 50650 diverter does the job, but based on our one-time experience, it's hard to use.
My unit came out of the box very stiff to operate. I had to lubricate it with silicone spray and gel. After working that in for some length of time, it operated smoothly enough for my wife and I to operate easily, and remained so for about 4 years. When it stopped working properly (jamming, and not fully diverting), I contacted Delta and they honored their life-time warranty with no hassle.
They offered me a choice of replacing the same diverter or trying a different one, the U4929. Based on Amazon reviews, I took the U4929 and have not regretted it.
The design of the leverage for the 50650 is all wrong for the typical application, pulling in-out from an elevated location.
The U4929 is ACA-approved, and is incredibly easy to operate with the flip of a lever. It's absolutely the best option.
As regards the 50650, after exploring the mechanism, my suspicion was confirmed that an O-ring slipped out of place, causing the final problems. (I have not found a way to fully disassemble and repair it without serious damage to the diverter finish.) It's possible that this O-ring was never positioned exactly right, causing the initial stiffness.
Be that as it may, if you need a diverter, buy the U4929 in whatever color you require. I believe you'll be extremely pleased.

How to remove the old 50650 diverter from the shower head?
Hello DSL24,
Thank you for your question on the Delta 3-Way Shower Arm Diverter and I am happy to help you today.
Once you have uninstalled your shower head, to remove the currently installed shower arm diverter, you may need an adjustable wrench and a cloth to wrap around the nut of the diverter to protect the finish. Once you have wrapped the cloth around the nut, you may loosen the nut by turning the adjustable wrench in a counter-clockwise motion. When the nut is loosened, you will be able to remove the diverter by turning the nut by hand.
I hope this information is helpful to you. If we can assist you further with uninstalling the diverter, please feel free to give us a call on our warranty line at 800-345-3358 and we will be happy to assist you further where we can.
Have a great day,
Brandy

What is the difference between Model No. 50650-SS and U4923-SS-PK?
Hi Bill, Thank you for your question. The model U4923-SS-PK is a 3 way diverter. You can use both showerheads together or individually. The model 50650-SS only diverts between the 2 showerheads, they can only be used individually.
Thanks,
Dave

Does this diverter allow for water to come out of both the shower head and the hand-held sprayer at the same time? Read more: http://www.deltafaucet.
This question was already asked multiple times and the answer given by the Delta employee was yes, but I believe the answer is wrong.
I purchased this diverter after reading that it would allow water to come from both the shower head and the hand-held sprayer at the same time. After installation, I am unable to get water from both outlets at the same time. It is only one or the other. There is no way of holding the knob in the middle position to open both outlets at the same time. The water pressure forces it to one side.
Was the information wrong or did I install this product wrong?
Thank you for your question. I apologize that the information that was previously communicated was incorrect. Delta Faucet model #50650 will not divert to both accessories. Delta Faucet model #U4923-PK will divert to both. A member of our team will be reaching out to you to make the purchase right.

Does this diverter allow for water to come out of both the shower head and the hand-held sprayer at the same time?
Thank you for your question. Delta Faucet model # 50650-SS is a diverter that is attached in between the shower arm and the shower head. When pulled up, it will let the consumer use either the showerhead or the handheld shower or both at the same time.

How does this diverter work ? Do you pull up on the control or turn to divert the water ?
Thank you for your question. Delta Faucet model # 50650 can be pulled up to operate either the handheld shower or stationary showerhead seperately or together.
