If the Chinese built it, I'm sure there's going to be a serious corrosion problem somewhere.

Ever used any tools made there?

In a fit of false economy my workplace bought Chinese made steam valves (made in China for Milvaco) and gaskets, the gaskets disintegrated in less than a month and most of the valves leaked in 6 months. We have American made valves (Jenkins, Nibco) doing duty for over 30 years with nary a problem.
