In hoses tubing fittings, the first question is always connection size and end style. The two sets here take opposite approaches: one bundle with a female swivel end, the other pack with a fixed male end. Neither is better in the abstract; the right one depends on the hose you're building.
Quick Verdict
For compact hydraulic hose work, the $30.99 set is the lower-priced pick. For larger-diameter equipment lines, the $47.14 Haichy set is the one to build around.

Where Each Product Wins
Where the female JIC set wins
This bundle gives you a refund-or-replacement choice if a fitting doesn't work out, and the straight shape is described as improving connection stability. It is a good fit when you want a single box of smaller hose-end fittings and don't need the larger-diameter end style.
Where the male JIC set wins
The Haichy set is built to SAE J514 and aimed at agricultural, construction, and industrial hydraulic systems, making it a stronger match for replacement work on equipment. Its fixed solid male end is designed to avoid hose torsion and reduce fluid leakage in installations where you don't want the hose to rotate during assembly.
Product Notes
12x Hydraulic Fittings 1/4" I.D. Hose x 1/4" JIC 37° Female w/ Protection Cover
This is a female JIC 37° swivel fitting, so it is a practical option for a compact line where you want the fitting to rotate after crimping. The protection cover keeps the end shielded when not in use, and the straight shape contributes to stable connections in fluid power systems. The bundle includes 12 pieces, which makes it useful if you are stocking spare ends for several small assemblies. The main limitation is that it is matched to 1/4-inch I.D. hoses and a female end, not a 3/4-inch male connection, so it cannot serve as a straight replacement for larger-diameter lines. If you need a box of small female JIC ends, this set has you covered.
10-Pack 3/4" Hose x 3/4" Male JIC Hydraulic Fittings, Carbon Steel
The Haichy set uses carbon steel with a zinc-plated surface, so it is built for regular working pressure in hydraulic systems. The fixed male end is meant to prevent the hose from twisting during installation, which helps reduce fluid leakage. This makes it a sensible replacement choice for agricultural, construction, or industrial machinery. The limitation is pack count: at 10 pieces, you receive fewer fittings than the smaller set, so if you're outfitting many connections at once, you may need more than one box. It also won't line up with compact 1/4-inch hose because the end is sized for the larger connection. For a 3/4-inch male JIC application, this is a solid pick.
Final Choice by Use Case
Choose the female JIC set when you are assembling compact hydraulic lines. Choose the Haichy male JIC set when you are replacing fittings on larger equipment lines. If you work with both connection styles, keep both sets available.
