Rated 2 out of 5 by from Product is great. Price is not. A couple of days after ordering this from Delta, I noticed the exact same thing (OEM Delta original) on Amazon for $19 (Prime Free shipping) rather than the 37 + 4.99 shipping I paid Delta. Not thrilled with that.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Delta H79 Handle - Perfect Fit [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased this handle online since the big box stores did not carry. Fits and works perfect. Supplier was very responsive to order and shipment without any issue.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Not the one, again! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After trying and returning several handles, this still was not the one. Even sent pics of where it was to be attached. Looks like I'm going to have to replace the whole fixture. Lesson learned: Keep all paperwork for whatever you buy as you may need parts.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Faucet Direct had the handle when home improvement stores didn't After replacing the cartridge in my Delta shower fixture, I still needed the handle that was not sold separately at local stores. I found the replacement handle for my shower fixture at Faucet Direct. The handle came with a set screw which really helped since I couldn't get the old one out of the old handle anyway.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Instant Update We replaced the very dated plastic crystal ball style knob with this lever, And it instantly updated the whole look of the shower . For very little $$
