Need to get a Crimp Tool for 1". Any suggestions? I couldn't find any reviews except for Amazon stuff that some folks call junk. I don't mind spending a little more for a good tool, although no point in throwing money away needlessly. thanks in advance, Dean

We prefer ProPex fittings over crimping PEX. Crimps tend to fail over time and we have never had or heard of a ProPex fitting failure. But if you must crimp, I have heard good things about IWISS: https://iwiss.com/iwiss-f1807-pex-copper-ring-crimp-tool/
