From above post: excellent product prior to the China thing
Here's the thing, we all would love to buy American but its becoming allmost impossible. I own a ford but I'll guarantee there are parts from all over the world on it. I own Vikings, and yes, alot of Vikings are now made in China but I was told by their rep, that yes they are made there but Viking has thier own company/factory there so they are still controlling the quality of the product. Companies are going to make thier products where they can make the most profits, that's the bottom line. About the only thing that you can count on being American made is fresh produce and unfrozen meat, I hope. Do your research and see what will meet your needs. What ever you buy, use it alot the first week or so and put it thru the test and if it doesn't hold up, return it and try another model.
