Quality is the key.
Cheap foreign stuff does not last.
Remember when American Made was a status of quality? Washing machines, refrigerators, power tools, machine tools, etc. would outlast everything from overseas. Now, it’s all crap that breaks even the first time you use it.
I bought a Chinese made jigsaw at one of those travelling tool shows once and it broke the first time I tried to use it........................

Americans chose cheap over quality. That is how we lost manufacturing here in the States.
