Is that correct or have i missed anything?
Anyone know where I can buy a bartender set NMIC?
I was looking for some time for a NMIC hairdryer. No luck in the retail stores and supermarkets, all are flooded exclusively with China made ones. Luck struck while on holiday :) I always check stuff hotels use (usually they try to have high fiability appliances, so no China). To my surprise I found they had Valera brand hairdryers, Made in Switzerland !!! Yes besides chocolate and banks they make also hairdryers.
I found the above model online (same as the hotel one) and bought two at around 80 EUR per piece.
Very silent, sturdy with metal causing and very powerfull.
And ideally under $1500 usd
I have always try to avoid using made in china stuffs . As what i know , most of the lithium raw material and electrolyte drum comes from china . Almost all phones batteries lithium ion are made in china .i have an old usa made fluke multimeter that i use a panasonic alkaline 9v . After almost 4 years of usage , the lcd starts having bleed issues . The contacts are still fine . So i bought a used fluke 76 ( usa made ) . Im deciding on using the energizer 9v lithium or alkaline . As from data specs , lithium batteries have stable discharge rate and rarely have leak issues . Lithium 9v ( made in china ) shelf life is 10 years vs alkaline ( made in malaysia ) 5 years .
Does anyone have a list please? We need to make sure there are alternatives for every product. While I might buy some things in China I will never buy a camera or software from China
In other words, should I also avoid products that have the “made in Thailand” stamp?

I work a lot outside. Im looking for some sun protective clothing (I have a med condition so gotta protect the skin). Any recommendations for affordable options not made in china? Not necessarily work clothing but maybe like a casual shirts or t-shirt for women.
One of the niche HI-FI Audio Headphones producer (Meze Audio) known by audiophiles are completely designed and produced in Romania in a small town in Transylvania. No slave labor :), no toxic factories , just a small nice producer staffed with very good sound professionals.
They had a piece on a Romanian TV station and I remembered about them.

I've been looking for underwear made in Europe and schiesser popped up a lot in my searches.
Unfortunately, they are not exactly transparent about their business and I ended up buying from asket instead at a slightly higher price.
I'm attaching their answer to my E-mail in case someone is interested in this information.
Any suggestions I find on this subreddit are those tiny peas that you shove in your earholes, worthless for jogging.
Is there ANY that are wireless that go over the ear? (like it has that hooky bit to hold it to your ear)
Anyone knows retailers or sellers for batteries in EU, Poland or Germany for example, not made in China?
Answer from a battery retailer in Finland: "Valitettavasti tilanne on se että kaikki Litiumakut valmistetaan Kiinassa, jotkin voidaan "brändätä" uudelleen eurooppalaiseksi, mutta valmistus tapahtuu joka tapauksessa Kiina, Taiwan yms akselilla".
Meaning, China and Taiwan are the only producers for Li-Ion, some can be branded (faked like the "Made in Germany") but everything comes from these countries anyway. So, question now is: how to buy Taiwanese battery products, do they have direct retailers world wide, to avoid Chinese?
The other (and final) alternative is USA of course. But we need to confirm it's made 100% in USA.
Hello! Anyone have any leads for toddler outdoor balls? Preferably playground balls or something similar?

Looking for NMIC proofing basket for basic sourdough. Thank you!
Hi. I am thinking about buying a good high quality watch. However I am confused about which brands are made from. I'm avoiding watches made from China or parts from China because I'm sick and tired of watches that says they are made in Switzerland, but really are manufactured in China. Could you guys give me any advice?
