My Plumber charged me "His Price" $375 for a Moen 7594SRS. he insisted he buy from Ferguson. . Home Depot has them for $255. I called Ferguson and was told the price was $375, AFTER he determined I was a homeowner not a contractor with an account. When questioned why so much more than HD, Randy told me that their faucets were higher quality than HD which has inferior plastic parts. When I said the part number was the same so that couldn't be true, he said "I wouldn't lie to you". He did! I found out Contractors with an account get a 40% discount at Ferguson, but they get an invoice for full price; perhaps to show the client? 40% off $375 is $225. This from the Moen website says quality is all the same, they don't make lower quality for "Big Box" stores: Q. Do all Moen products consist of one standard of quality regardless of whether the distributor is a retail or wholesale supplier? A. Moen's production line does not differentiate between wholesale and retail models. There is only one grade of brass, only one grade of cartridge and only one grade of warranty coverage - the best. While the numbering system for Moen's wholesale distributors and retail distributors may vary and subtle installation and trim differences may exist (these may include, but are not limited too, packaging, threaded or slip-fit style tub spouts and metallic or non-metallic drain assemblies). The quality and limited lifetime warranty against leaks, drips, materials, and workmanship remain the same for all of our products. Not sure if it makes things any clearer for you. If you like it I'd go for it, you have the warranty and unlike certain bathroom fixtures repairing a kitchen faucet isn't that problematic. Watch out for lying Plumbers and Ferguson clerks

Hello everyone. I have had this faucet for a year and a half. I had the water flow issue when using the manual mode as well. Moen sent me a new control box and when installing it the water flow improved a bit. Its now 6-8 months later and the water flow is back to the way it was . Extremely low flow. I will call again to see if they have a new solution. I am not happy with this product and will demand a new faucet with no sensors. FYI.. I have exactly the same faucet style in my kitchen island sink except it is manual mode only and it works fantastic. The water flow is the same as when the motionsense faucet is activated on the one I am having issues with. If anyone has a solution please advise. I will be posting a video on youtube describing this issue. I have labelled it "Moen motion sense water flow issue. Please help". Cheers.

For those of you who have them, are there really that many times when you feel the need to turn on the faucet without touching it, or is it that it is just such a cool, new feature that you want? Even when my hands are messy, I can easily turn on my faucet with the clean part of my hand, usually the top side of my hand, so there is no desire to pay the premium price for the faucet, or to feed the faucet with batteries just to have this feature. Am I missing something? Maybe it's that not once in my whole life of using a kitchen faucet have I thought to myself, "Hey, if only I could turn on my faucet without touching it, now that would be grand!" However, if they invent something that prevents those awful water spots in a stainless steel sink, I'm first in line! I don't care how often I have to replace the batteries!

I love a good revived thread. :-) My good deals are all from eBay this time. My desktop computer is not quite four years old, but since it gets a lot of use and we believe in "lifecycling" electronics I've been casually looking for a good deal on a somewhat high-end refurbished PC to replace it. Before I found anything, my computer quit. Just refused to turn on. I researched possible causes, and called in my expert: my son. The power supply was a common source of the problem, so I bought one on eBay for $20. Nope, that didn't do it, but we kept the replacement in the computer and held onto the old one as a spare. Next we replaced the motherboard ($70 on eBay). Yes! The computer works fine at this point, but we figured since the hard drive has been spinning all these years, why not replace it--or add another, which is what we did--rather than wait for it to fail? So I bought a 1TB SSD drive on Amazon ($100), and now have a "new computer" for under $200. Also, I've been wanting an L.L. Bean tan canvas "barn jacket" for a long time but was unwilling to pay over $100 for it. Even eBay prices on them aren't usually tempting, but this time I found one for under $20 including shipping. I love it! It really is "like new," and I look forward to wearing it when spring starts to make an appearance. All I need now are olive green "wellies" for our muddy season.
