One gutter company uses wedges (which was what I thought the standard was) and the other said he developed a tool that basically bends the angle needed in the gutter while he's making them, so he doesn't use wedges. Any opinions on which one may be better since the prices are negligible?

the angel way would give you more flow/ volume as long as the downspouts can handle it. The wedges have the advantage of not being in contact with the facia, which stops moisture from being help, slowing wood rot.

There are specific hangers made for that fascia, they work and are worth the money.

I have the wedges on my gutters. I go through 2 cases of wasp spray a year to keep them out from behind the gutters. If I had the option I would definitely go with the gutters formed to your facia

If you're in th BR area, you need to go with Ascension Gutters regardless of what technique they use
