Any experience with aftermarket Paramount water valves (PCC2000) such as this one? They are half the price of an OEM and look tempting. There are just a handful of reviews on Amazon.

6-Port Module Kit for Paramount Water Valve, Replacement Part for 004-302-4408-00 with Valve Shell O-Ring 005-302-0100-00​

 
Purchased and installed. Exact replica and perfect fit. I pulled on the valves and they responded as expected - appears to be at least equal quality as oem.

Running smooth so far and controlling individual popups with no bleeding over into other lines/popups.

Great!
Let us know how it holds up over time.
 
I purchased a second one as I have a 12-valve setup. The second one had slightly different markings (raised lettering with instructions, numbers, etc.), so not consistent. Maybe these are rebuilt? Either way, working great so far (a few days).

Update: after six months of use (4-6 hours/day) they are holding up fine. No issues.
