Unless it is an ABSOLUTE EMERGENCY I refuse to buy any tool, piece of machinery, mechanical devise etc. made in China. If I want a specific tool (lets say a Milwaukee electric tool - now made in China) I'll find an older model either NIB (new old stock) or a very gently and cared for used one.
I own, collect and use old vintage GE Fans around the house (yes we do have central a/c but we like a soft breeze too) and although the years of manufacture range from 1914 to 1945 they all work perfectly and are quiet, efficient and never give me any problems. The new plastic ****** ones from China------ JUNK!
