    Removing Moen kitchen faucet aerator

    My Moen kitchen faucet has an aerator that none of the standard aerator keys seem to fit. I've attached a picture of it below. Maybe Moen did this purposefully to make people need to replace the whole faucet head every time. Looking at this YouTube video, How to remove a Moen kitchen faucet...

    2004 Moen bathroom faucet disassembly

    I have a leaky faucet and I presume it is a Moen because the aerator housing says Moen on it. The house was built in 2004 so I presume it is from that year.
