Sure there are some reliable products but go back 3 or 4 decades they built shit to last. Now we are in a throw away economy. Something breaks go buy another because prob cost just as much fixing than to replace. I'll take Japan they usually make good shit. They can make good cars but apparently not airbags! |
I think that has little to do with China and more to do with the business that sell the items. For example, lets say Company A sells a vacuum that lasts 20 years, they now have to wait 20 years to ever see another sale from that person, so they "redesign" that vacuum to last 10 years, they just doubled there potential earning off that client in half the time. It has very little to do with how China makes the goods, they simply just make them how it's instructed from whoever they have the contract with.
