Excellent quality. Good design details and item feels heavy (not cheap plastic things). The oil rubbed bronze finish goes well with our Price Pfister Ashfield faucets. Instructions were clear and simple to understand. Definitely a quick and easy update.

Love it! Took only a couple of minutes to install them in my toilets to complete the renovated oil rubbed bronze look. Great design makes it easy to install for any type toilet with a handle. Wish all retrofits were this easy to use!

It does not and can not work on side mount plus the instructions ramble on without any clarity. They are pointless for any installation as if a bunch of words about the lever equate to instructions. Very disappointing and certainly not worth twice the money over std levers. I only bought it due to the side mount claims which are completely false.

Fairly simple to install as my lever was on the front. Not sure how the side mount would work.
If you want the bronze finish you have the right part with this lever.

This is NOT a universal toilet tank lever; it WILL not work with a side mounted toilet. As the other reviewer noted, it will not life the rubber flap high enough to get good flow. I messed with this for several hours before returning it. Avoid.

This handle is easy to instal and looks quite good. The finish is nice, with a relatively dark oil rubbed bronze color. The lever itself is quite heavy so that may cause a bit of a problem with some valves since it might create some lifting force that can eventually lead to leaks at the rubber flap in the tank. I prevented this from happening in my side mount application by turning the rod in the tank in a way that now flushing happens with lifting the lever instead of the more natural pushing. This may be strange for first time users (like guests and so) but works just fine :-)
Also, Amazon's price is pretty much the same like, say, Home Depot's... not what I'm accustomed to, but hey, at least it's not more expensive :-\

Contrary to what the packaging claims, this handle will NOT work on a side mount toilet. This sort of false advertising makes one want to avoid all Danco products.

I spent three hours with this thing yesterday attempting to get it to lift the flapper high enough to flush the toilet, but it simply won't work. There's not a wide enough range of motion in the flush action to get the flapper high enough to flush.

Might be useful for front-mount toilets, but again DOES NOT WORK FOR SIDE-MOUNT TOILETS!

Returned.

I purchased this item to match the decor of a bathroom remodel project for our powder room. After only three months of actual use the handle portion snapped off during a routine flush. You get what you pay for.

It looks very pretty and is heavy, but it doesn't fit the side flusher toilets as it claims to. Also awkward directions and set up.
