Recurring issues with venipuncture tools

I’ve noticed that we keep facing similar problems with certain venipuncture kits, especially those that seem to have defective needles. It’s frustrating when we’re in a hurry and have to waste time switching out tools mid-draw — has anyone else experienced this or found any reliable alternatives that avoid these issues?

I’ve had trouble with the same kits; have you tried switching brands? I found some better options at https://www.phlebtools.com.
