Forv me, two best companies are Apple and Lenovo. My Thinkpad is still running strong.
Oh man, I loved my old IBM Thinkpads, but had to give those back with job changes. I did buy a Lenovo after the company was sold... but not the Thinkpad model. It wasn’t that durable. Fell apart in a year (cracking around the display and the keyboard). Oh well, you get what you pay for. Worst laptop I ever had was an HP (which was sad... since when Compaqs existed they were made in Texas)
No Lenovo for me, ever. A Communist Chinese company headquartered in Beijing. Buy American!
