A&A Manufacturing Float Assembly Quik Water Leveler # 529342 vs Korky from Home Depot

Hello Team, is there any difference between A&A's part which sells for $30 and the plain old Korky 528 valve at Home Depot for $8.00.

Thanks!

My original fill valve failed after about 5 years. I replaced it with a Korky valve, which lasted another 5 or 6 years. The last one I bought was a Fluid master which is going on 6 years.

The fill valve is just sitting in plan tap water for the most part, just like in your toilet tank - only in a slightly warmer/cooler environment.

For the price difference I'll use the HD ones.
