Made In China

Products from China are popularly known for their cheap prices. Whenever something is cheaper than the other stuff on the shelf , “must be from China” is the first thought that hit everyone’s minds.

Due to the prices , these products are often considered unsafe and of low quality. However I think that this is a rather unfair perception. Let me take electrical products as an example. There are those brands from China which you could get for half the price of branded items like Sony and Hitachi. When it comes to safety , both this items come with a one year warranty , meaning that after that you are on your own should anything happen. If China items are indeed that lousy , how are they able to offer the same warranty given by branded companies? As a matter a fact , with it being half the price , technically you automatically get a 2 year warranty. Truth is the price is low due to their overwhelming population making labour cheap. If you noticed , most branded items are made in China as well ;) Just imagine their profit margins!! =O

As for quality , perhaps the quality is not up to par with branded names. However at times , we really do not need that extra quality. Furthermore , China products usually beat branded names when it comes to incorporating the latest technologies in their products. Most would say that the reason for this is that branded companies have to do research and copyright their ideas which takes time. China brands are said to just steal the results of the research and manufacture the items without copy righting their designs first thus making them able to introduce these technologies so much quicker. Well even if it is true , it does not really affect us consumers does it? All those procedures are a corporate thing. The important thing is value for our money right??hehehe =P
Admittedly China products have proved to be a failure in several occasions. However let us not judge them solely by their mistakes. Try looking at the advantages as well =)
