Came the next day. Kohler packaging. Fits the Mastershower thermostatic valve K-2973 perfectly. Works perfectly. Called Kohler and they are honoring their warranty and shipping a new part but will take a week to arrive. Amazon delivered the next day!

All of the plumbing fixtures in our house are Kohler and at the twenty year mark most of them needed attention. The shower valve was no longer mixing properly which made taking a shower an uncomfortable proposition. My prior experience with shower valves was that you had to get back behind the tile, sever water lines, and start fresh with a new install. This was a very simple, easy, and effective fix and the shower operates like new again. A few ceramic cartridge faucet replacements and I'm ready to go another twenty years. Can't say enough good things about Kohler.

My only complaint about these valve cartridges is that the sealing rubber washer on the bottom is what has failed in the ones I have replaced (I do this myself - I'm not a plumber). It is not available as a separate item - so far as I know, it is not. The ceramic inserts have not failed on any of the ones I have replaced. Also, if you have a torque wrench, do use it to tighten this cartridge in place. Too little torque and it will leak, too much and (at least in my experience) it becomes very difficult to remove the next time it needs replacement. We have a Kohler bathroom faucet set with separate hot and cold handles. The sink design makes reaching the valve body difficult. There is a one-inch (or 15/16" - hard to measure) flat on the valve body. I mention this because at the valve insert torque (25-30 inch-pounds) you need to hold that flat so the valve body does not turn. That's the difficult part. I had to use a crow foot wrench to reach it. It might be easier with other sink designs. If you download the installation/repair manual for your faucets that use these valve cartridges, the instructions tell you how to change these cartridges from clockwise to counterclockwise on or off. Easy to do with hand tools - you remove the shaft retaining clip and rotate the stop block by 90-degrees and re-assemble. Purchasing both CW and CCW cartridges is not necessary if you need a CW/CCW pair; you can buy two of the same and change the one you need. Note that this is for this particular valve cartridge; I do not know about other Kohler valve inserts. Also for some faucet handles, you may need a spline shaft size adapter. One comes with the valve insert, but it may be too long for some faucet handles.

This part works well for the faucets that it’s designed to fit in. Make sure you know if you need to order the hot or cold side of the faucet.

Viene en su empaque original. Lo que garantiza su calidad. Muy satisfecha con la compra y contenta de que haya encontrado esta pieza en Amazon a un precio menor de lo que normalmente es. Ya que no la vende en cualquier lugar.
