Chinese slaves making defective crap? When i worked in retail, we would get pallets of grills from Guangdong China. Many times the assembler would take them out of the box to do his work and the “stainless” panels would be all rusted.
Don’t know how it was all resolved.
Toasters made in China don’t work but people are believing medical technology and equipment will? How stupid do you have to be, I wonder?
Steel from China has a questionable pedigree. We have customers that prohibit us from buying material from certain countries and China always tops the list. Usually we have to provide mill certs, other times we just need to pinky-swear on it by signing a CFC letter. We just provide the mill certs since the only way we can be sure ourselves is to require it.
