A bit pricey for something I doubt we'll ever need again -- or at least not for another 5-10 years by which time it will be buried so deep in the shop I'll never find it. It cost as much as the replacement cartridge.

Without it, we were unsuccessful at pulling the cartridge after 20 minutes. With it, the cartridge popped out nearly instantly. Huge difference!

Great tool, easy to use and it worked without any problems. The cost may come back as special benefits (see below).

I am retired and living in Florida. Out guest bathroom doesn't get too much use for about 9 months. The inevitable happened, the mineral deposits in the water and the hot weather caused the shower control to develop mineral deposits and not work.
While pricing replacement cartridges, I saw that people had purchased this cartridge pulling tool. Having tried to repace stuck cartridges before I knew that this could be a difficult job. The house design did not have a water shut off for the shower by itself and I had to turn off the entire house. If the repair developed into a problem area I would have all of the water turned off for a long time.
In using the tool, it did not pull out with just the first step, so I went on to the part using the large nut to break the seal. It came out in about 30 seconds. I have passed on the information of the problem of not exercising the water controls frequently to all my friends to help prevent this problem.
A large number of them want to borrow me and the tool when they have problems.
I have a possible limitless supply of beer in my future!

I would have been in big trouble without this tool... with the faucet disassembled and unable to get the cartridge out, using this tool was the ONLY way, period. If your single handle shower is old, there's a good chance the cartridge is stuck. If you run into this, then close everything back up, and turn on the water again, order this tool and reschedule the project.
The videos on the Moen website are helpful too, but they don't mention this tool!
