Amer. Standard shower valve

Posted by Russell on February 21, 19100 at 00:09:43:
Would like some opinions on Amer. Standard's pressure balancing with volume control valve. (Reliant +). In a recent remodel to our home I used the Moentrol valve. It works well and of course looks nice. I now want to put a pressure balancing valve in the kid's tub/shower but I don't want to spend as much as I did on the Moentrol. I must have volume control for the tub. Home Depot carries the American Standard Reliant + for $89 versus the Moentrol "Monticello" with handle insert for about $149 at the plumbing supply store. What's your opinion? Thanks, Russell Austin, TX
