using quick connect fittings will definitely make your plumbing look handyman style...when you sell the house it may be an issue if your not in a working class neighborhood where things like that are common

id buy a crimp tool...and attempt to look professional

better yet get an expansion tool and use A grade pex instead of the B grade stuff your planning on using...only Wirsbo and Rehau make A Grade pex...cant expand the B grade stuff
