I'll try going with one manufacturer. Not giving up yet.

Unless you got a defective end or hose, they should all be the same....I've bought hoses from 3 or 4 different manufacters and the same with ends(who ever had the best price at the time), even bought a box of used and new AN fitting of varouis sizes and manufacters off evil bay and still using them....some hoses/sizes are a little harder to work with than others, but for the most part, interchanging makes should not matter...........
I use a high speed cutter very similar to this one, probably 10 bucks or less at Harbor Freight.......
