I bought this exact sink with original hardware and legs for my bathroom. Does anyone have any tips on the best way to mount it? It came with two legs (no towel bars) and no mounting bracket. There are no slits in the back, only underneath. I see these beauties installed in bathrooms all over the internet, but no word on how people mount them. Any tips are appreciated! Btw I also asked the nice people over at deabath and am waiting to hear back. But figured maybe you would might know. Thanks!

Problem might be breaking the o-ring seal so the cartridge can be pulled up. If that's the case you want to spray silicone around the cartridge so it can get down to the o-ring. Then that's where twisting with the included tool would break the seal so you can pull the cartridge. Since one of the plastic pieces broke off you have to devise a way to turn the cartridge. You might be able to fit a thin instrument like a feeler gauge alongside the cartridge and break the o-ring seal.

We just bought the Moen Brantford Motionsense in ORB, and I struggled with the decision too. Like so many other great things my kitchen has acquired since finding GardenWeb, it's life-changing. So on to some details... Is it crazy to mix water and electronics? Well no, not in a kitchen. Your ice maker does it. Your garbage disposal does it. Your fridge-mounted water does it. Your electric stove does it, in a sense. Today, there are steam-clean options for ovens and steam-dry options for dryers. The Moen faucets have 2 sensors and MANUAL CONTROL. You don't have to use any sensors if you don't want to. And, honestly, when you have company, it makes sense to turn off at least the front sensor (guests seem to have a talent for dousing their sleeves). Turning on and off either sensor is easy but not so easy you'll do it accidentally. There are 3 basic "components" - the faucet, the mixing control box, and the power source. The mixing control box houses the electronics, mixing valves, and bypass lines. Sounds complicated, but hooking up was really (really!) easy. We put the mixing control box on the back wall of our cabinet to keep the hoses out of the way. The power source is just a small plastic box that can hold batteries or connect to the plugged-in transformer. We paid for the transformer, but it sounds like most people can run for about a year on one set of batteries. The wire connecting the power source to the control box is pretty long, so we put the power source box on the side wall right next to one door. The temperature control is on the power source, and we figured we may want easy access to it. The wires can be tucked up at the top of the cabinet (they come with ties) so if there is ever a hose failure, there is a minimal chance of electrocution. We have an outlet under our sink, and I see the risk as equivalent if we had left our garbage disposal in place. Have sensor faucets improved over a few years ago? I think the answer is yes, but I also think it's important to differentiate between the sensors in public restrooms and the residential model you'll be buying. The sensors in residential models have no excuse for being faulty. If you're not happy, return it and get a replacement or buy a different brand. Our sensors are well-placed and have shown very consistent operation. Based on reviews, this is normal and I can expect years of this. The bad reviews I read indicated faulty mechanics or incorrect installation. Statistically, there is certainly a chance of getting a dud - and that's true of standard faucets as well. 3. Pros for us - and every family is different - far outweigh the cons. Here are some of the ways we are using the motion sensor that make our lives more pleasant: Washing chicken hands Washing hands after cleaning the litter box Wiping down counters without leaving the water on Rinsing out the cat food can Rinsing off fruit and veggies Rinsing out a coffee cup or cereal bowl single-handed and without getting wet Rinsing off a serving spoon covered in soup or spaghetti sauce after a quick stir Rinsing off a heavy pot carried with 2 hands These are all pretty minor, but it's shocking how few times a day I actually touch the faucet - really just to wash dishes. Cons are pretty few. Okay, I admit we all douse our sleeves once in a while. When I scrub down the sink, I have to remember to turn the faucet aside so I don't accidentally wash the cleaner out before I'm ready. Sometimes I wish the front sensor would extend out just one more inch. The Moen technology has adjustable temperature but not adjustable flow; this was a major issue for me before we installed and now it doesn't matter at all. The handle must be installed on the right; this was almost our deal-breaker. We really wanted a 360-degree faucet so we could install in front. But with the Motionsense, we only touch the handle once or twice a day. Do I wish it was on the left? Well, yes, but it really doesn't affect my enjoyment of the faucet, and it's habit now to reach AROUND the right side to get to the handle. It's really the only compromise we made, and it was so worth it. So... I love it! But, I paid for it and I'm biased. What I found most interesting was my mother's response when she stayed with us for a week. Initially, we turned off the front sensor so she wouldn't get wet. After 2 days, my husband and I missed it so much we turned it back on and told my mother "tough luck - keep your sleeves out of the sink." 2 days after that, Mom said she kept waiting for the bathroom faucet to turn itself on! She adapted quickly, despite her aversion to gimmicks and technology in general. She misses it now that she's back home.

Hi, I can see the cartridge still in the valve. You pulled the stem out of the cartridge. Spray some lube between the Valve and cartridge. Then go to a store a buy a replacement cartridge, it comes with a tool to help remove the cartridge. You will have more work to get the cartridge out. Use the tool to turn the cartridge back and forth then try to get a hold of the cartridge and pull it out. Good Luck Woodbutcher
