Plastic or Copper 
If you're weighing it in....go with the copper.
A few plastic coppers down here, free to a good home.

Plumbers are always full of themselves. Thought I'd ask the general public

sorry, just adding weight to the 'plastic' argument.... as most DIYers (i reckon) prefer a pushfit to a soldered copper joint !!

Pity one can't get an amalgamation of the two. We could call it "plastic copper"When I see plastic in a house I wonder what other s**t there is!
Good, sweated copper joints with no drips or runs are a sign of care and professionalism.
Plastics got it's uses on the right job/places but in the hands of a diyer
it's a disaster.

You're a pro, explain this to me. Compression or pushfit joints are meant to remain accessible for maintenance. So how does one facilitate this when the fitting will be embedded within concrete and/or boarded over with engineered boards?
