Received this am and used shortly afterwards. Works well and saves me a lot of time and grief. Exellent quality and works as supposed.

If you are succeeding then you will know because when the cartridge is coming out you can see the top plastic part of the cartridge move away from the metal of the valve bodyas seen more clearly when big al moves the nut back to reveal the cartridge has come out

Extra note to those out there that are newbies like me and this is the first timeonce the cartridge is coming out and you cannot turn the nut more for me this happened at about half as far as it did for big al then carefully hold the handle and with constant gentle pressure turn the handle leftright over and over slowly pulling at the same time to coax the cartridge out
