Pexflow PXKT-RB50012 PEX Potable Water Tubing Combo Non-Barrier Pipe for Residential or Commercial, 1/2 Inch x 500 Feet (1 Red + 1 Blue)

I purchased the 1/2" product, two 100' coils in red for hot and blue for cold. If I purchase 3/4 or 1" pex in future, I would definitely look into getting this brand if the price is right!I was unfamiliar with pex installation for home potable water systems and bought this to help me get my home water working again during the covid pandemic. Others have already reviewed this product and I won't go into all the details about this per se, only to say that you should definitely make sure you straighten this stuff out before you insert it into sharkbite and other quick release connectors and couplers. In general, I've had zero problems with this product so far, and I have two of my home sinks serving up water better than ever through this piping. Just follow the suggestions in other reviews instructions about how to straighten the pex out before hand, etc. Oh, and remember to inspect ends if you are using quick connectors >before< you insert them, particularly if you've been pulling stuff through walls, dragging it along the ground, etc! If you take the appropriate diligence with that, you'll be alot happier.I marked the stretch as average as these coils follow the pex standard. If you bend it to much, it will crimp, and you may have to cut that section out. This only happened once or twice to me in my two sink projects, while I was pulling or pushing the pex through tight wall spaces. Fortunately, at 17 cents/ foot, that's not a big deal! (In fact, it's the crimp rings that are the bigger cost I've found with pex, not the actually tubing itself… that and the more expensive brass and even more expensive copper fittings.)Oh, also, I made sure I had a good assortment of quick coupling and crimp brass fittings before starting my project. Be sure you at least get a few of the various kinds of connectors you might imagine you will need before starting a project with this stuff! I had enough to keep working on stuff while ordering the part I hadn't realized I'd need before I started learning how to install this stuff in my home. Also, be sure you buy the universal (copper, pex) debur and gauge tool for $10—I still haven't got one but it would have helped me do things quicker for sure!

Really easy to use. Shark bites (for pex) work great if you don’t want to use clams, but the clamps work great too! Be sure to clamp them in the correct place or they will leak..

This is exactly what I expected. It's a great product and fills the need I have for adding a bathroom to my home. Shipping was fast and the follow-up concern about my satisfaction makes me feel like they care for their customer's satisfaction with their products and service. Five stars, without a doubt!

I have done a lot of plumbing work in the past but had never used PEX before. I bought this and replumbed my daughters entire house in just a few hours. If you are hesitant in trying something new, don't sweat it. This is easy stuff to work with. I am actually looking forward to replumbing my house with PEX.

I used this to plumb a bathroom and small kitchen in my basement. It was easy to work with. I stretched it across the floor and put some weights on each end to get some of the curl out. I suspect you would have to do that with any pex pipe. I did manage to kink it in one spot while I was pulling it through a joist. I cut this section out. I don't think this was a quality issue with the pipe. I'm sure its my fault, but this is my first time working with PEX, so I can't compare it to any other pipe. It's been installed for several months now and none of it has leaked a single drop. I used cinch clamps for the connections.
