I'm not Allen, but I love working with PEX. I've used both Sharkbite fittings and crimp-ons. Never had a problem with Sharkbite, but recently when we moved the shower in our master bath and planned a closet where the old shower was, I went with crimp-ons to plug the lines going to the old shower.
There is too much insulation to get at the lines from below, so I cut the PEX lines about 6" above the floor inside the wall and used crimp-on plugs 'cause after I put a sheet of drywall over the area, the stubs will never be seen again.
