...no darn good anymore. Product after product that they've copied from a US original, ruined business for the company that made good stuff, then someone splits from Factory A and makes a still cheaper copy, three people separately split off from Factory B and each makes cheaper copies, each offering lower prices and taking the market away, then finally, the products they make are so bad no one wants to buy them any more. All factories close, or move on to copying and ruining something else.
First place I remember seeing this was down jackets, then 40-piece socket sets (Taiwan got into that too - - same problems as the mainland). Since then I see the same trends over and over again. Instance after instance in kitchen tools.
Silicone products for the kitchen, for instance. I bought a $1 silicone bowl scraper, darn good value, flexy, durable unlike Rubbermaid's old rubber ones that hardened up after about a year.
But then I pushed it too hard one day and cracked it, and when I went back they still had $1 silicone scrapers, but now, silicone had too much clay in it as filler and they're too stiff to wipe a bowl with.
Look what their farmers are willing to do, put poison in their milk so they can dilute it with water and get paid more, and still have it test as if it had the protein of unwatered milk. And, however, poison the children of their own nation.
Greed rules over all.
