## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great, easy to self install
*by D***E on January 27, 2025*

This works as advertised. Water gets hot then the flow drops to a trickle - water is hot when you actually get in the shower. This is a water and money saver... and reduces damage from turning you bathroom into a sauna.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Get the metal one!
*by R***A on November 3, 2024*

First thing to know: No, these valves do NOT last forever. I tend to have to replace them every 5 or 6 years. It probably depends on the type of water you've got and how much you use them. One of these days, I'll do a deep dive on trying to rehabilitate a dying valve (soak in a descaler like CLR, clean the inlet screen, ...?). In the meantime, it bothers me to waste water and energy by running the hot water past the point where it's reached the shower.I've seen some people's reviews complaining that these valves aren't made well anymore. Perhaps? I see that this Amazon seller (ShowerStart) is offering two models: One ("Chrome Polish") looks like it might be made of plastic, and costs about 20% less than the one that I bought ("Brushed Nickel"), which is definitely mostly metal. That's the version I've always bought, and it lasts years, in our home.In terms of finances -- no, the savings in water/energy probably won't recoup the cost of the valve. I buy it because wasting the water and energy just bothers me too much. But I live in SoCal, where water and energy are often constrained resources.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Promising concept, though cheap materials, and doesn't always work
*by J***Y on December 17, 2024*

I love this idea: You turn on your water and, once it gets hot, this device is supposed to shut off the water, until you pull the cord. If your water can take a while to heat up, and you don't want to stand around constantly checking it, this can not only reduce water usage and costs, but also "notify" you once the water is hot.In practice, I found this to be a bit flaky. It works best when you heat up the water all the way—but that also means you'll need to adjust the temperature back before jumping in. In addition, the device feels like a cheaper material, and I will be curious to see if it ends up springing a leak with constant use. That said, it is pretty noninvasive, and really nice when it does work.Currently, my local utility in Seattle offers is offering a rebate on these which effectively makes them free. For that price, they're well worth the experiment.If you're like me, you will probably fuss over the design of the pull cord. Fortunately, it's a completely detachable element, which isn't obvious in the photos. If you are tall or have a low showerhead, you can just remove it entirely, and pull down on the lever directly. Otherwise, you can easily replace this with any cord of your choosing. I used a chain, but you could get creative here and use e.g., a thin piece of rope with an ornament hanging off the end, or something like that.
