pvc glue fittings under sink

[i4ni]

I'm installing a new kitchen sink and I'm planning on using all pvc glue fittings from the baskets to the wall connection. I hate the slip nut and washer type drain fittings that in my experience will leak sooner or later. I know I'll have to cut it apart if I have a problem but I figure I'll just use rubber couplers if that happens. I never have plugged drains but I've had it with leaky pipes. Are solid glue ups done very often? Any other potential problems with this setup? Thanks

Tubular trap assemblys arent allowed here. Ive never used them, and ive never had a problem clearing a drain using a ptrap with a cleanout on it and/or a line cleanout

Properly installed, I have seen very, very few leaks with slip joint connections. That is what I use under sinks, and I just don't get call backs for leaks.

Now, I have seen trouble with people using those ridiculous flexible fittings and traps, or flipping a trap over when the drain arm is too high.

Does this apply to bathroom sinks as well?

In my area, yes. It's not a plumbing code thing, it's a building inspector thing.
