Even if you found a laptop that was not “made in China”, the parts probably will have been. I use Dell but I would never recommend them.

Ditto. My XPS15 died after 5 mos. Hard drive and motherboard had to be replaced (under warranty, but Dell would only provide a refurbished motherboard). 2 months later, same thing happened. 5 mos after that, same thing again. After hours of over the phone troubleshooting with technical support (with people with poor command of English) and 2 home repair visits, Dell finally agreed to examine it at their repair "depot" (but absolutely refused to replace the computer). It's been working ok now for a few months, but I use it with the assumption that it could die again at any minute. I will not buy another Dell.

I use Dell but would recommend them. Nearly all the support cases I had over the last 10 years were handled quickly and without resistance.
