well there are crappy american goods in walmart too, so what? its silly yo assume that all products coming out of a huge country such as china will all be of the same quality.
what many westerners seem to failt to realise is that while chinese good are generally much cheaper then their western counterparts, there are still varying prices to present different quality levels.
you cant really expect to go into your local walmart, pick out the cheapest product on offer (which often will be chinese) and expect it to work just as well as the more expansive products also on offer (many of which will also be chinese).
also, it is human nature to only take notice of things that dont really work as expected. if your ketal is working perfectly and has been working perfectly for years, would you really bother to check where it was made? however, if your ketal breaks down after only one year, you would most likely check its lable yo see where it is from.
all this means is that people buy the cheapest goods and expecting them to work like the best on the market, and getting diapointed when these products fail to meet expectations, and when they check the lable, most are found to be made in china, hence creating the false impression that all chinese goods are of poor quality.
just go through your house and take a look at all the lables of your durable and good quality products and you might be suprised just how many of them have ‘made in china’ on the back.
I was making the same argument dude. So chill. All that I was claiming was: User and Design requirements dictate quality of a product. Not culture.
