pex fittings, grrr

I've had pretty good luck with the Shark Bite fittings, but you have to find the ones made for PEX. They even make them for transitioning from PVC or Polypropylene to PEX.

I have no problem with the sharkbite fittings except for buying a crimper and then using it in very confined spaces. Iirc, there's also another tool required to cut the crimping collar.
