Do you prefer flex head or regular head for flare nut wrenches?

[Jacobson]

If they cost the same, would you prefer flex or regular head for flare nut wrenches? Does the flex just end up being annoying?

I never even seen flex head flare nut wrenches... never had an extreme need for one either

 

[amolaver]

i've got both..dislike the flex heads. i've needed them (very, very rarely), but much prefer non-flex.

ahm

The flex heads are annoying to me, especially on tight, rusted fittings. I have a set of 15 degree offset and straight, that get it done for me.

I have both and always use the fixed ones.

I've never used a flex wrench and I would think it wouldn't be as bad since it isn't as long but I can tell you I've bashed my hand pretty good a few times with my long flex head ratchet.
