Probably a rhetorical question, but I have just had a 15mm pushfit

long I need to leave the others now before I can convince myself they
are ok?

The joint that leaked wasn't a genuine JG Speedfit, but the rest are,
I suppose that answers the question really...

The integrity of the O ring is vital. So pipe must be smoothly cut and
inserted carefully.
I've not had a problem with any, even the cheaper B&Q branded ones.



Ok I'll put it down to a dodgy fitting and stop worrying then...

The O ring looks ok, but the fitting didn't seem as secure on the pipe
as the genuine ones, I wouldn't have used it if I hadn't been in a
hurry
