I need to find a durable single push button air coupler. It has to be 1/4" automotive style per corporate rules. New regulations have come out and we're having to change to the push button release. I've used the Prevost ones but I want opinions from people who have used multiple brands. I'm not opposed to spending the money on high quality couplers but I want to spend the money wisely.

Been using the Prevost couplers for about the past 17-18 years. No problems. When I had the miltons, seemed like I was forever rebuilding one. In fact, I always kept a couple of Milton kits on hand. Never had to take a Prevost apart.

I'm using the Husky ones from HS in my shop.
The good part is being a two-push type, the release is controlled and quiet. They're also easy to insert, lightweight (aluminum body), and covered in rubber so they're not likely to damage things.
The bad part is that I have one hose reel outside (under an awning), and that one damned coupler seems to fail at least once a year. Something is corroding in it far too quickly.
