Still using twist-on connectors after 15 years, not a fan of push-ins

I know everyone in my local IBEW crew swears by Wagos for speed, but I stick with wire nuts on residential jobs. Had a push-in connector fail on a ceiling fan install last spring and it cost me a callback. Why risk a loose connection just to save 10 seconds?

Gotta be honest, push-ins aren't Wagos though. Wagos are the lever ones you clamp down. Push-ins are a different thing entirely and yeah those things are junk.

@miaa41 exactly right, the push ins are just cheap knockoffs.
