    We replaced the cartridge in our kitchen faucet without incident.

    The handle had been a bit wobbly for a while. It was taking some maneuvering to get it to shut off completely without drips.

    So I ordered a new cartridge...and the swap commenced...

    The supply line shutoffs worked flawlessly (no leaks when we turned the water off and back on), the old cartridge came out without a struggle, the new one went in perfectly, and the faucet now goes on/shuts off smoothly.

    It's a small win in the great scheme of things (@Steve-Miller and @Bernard get the prize for biggest home improvement projects), but these days I'll take anything!!

            We're old school. We read the paper instructions that came with the new cartridge.

            We are in minor plumbing task mode this week. Next up: Replacing the pop-up drain thingy on our Kohler tub. That ought to take less than a minute. I actually did look for YT videos to see if I could repair the old one but came to the conclusion everyone else did, that a new one is in order. Twenty years is a pretty good run.
