That's great but I try my darnest never to buy stuff made in China...obviously it's impossible not to; but if I can find an alternative product made elsewhere I will buy that, and if I don't really need it then I forget it if it's not made somewhere else. Why you scream? Because most of the stuff I ever bought made in China won't even make it past the warranty period and if it does last longer then the warranty period it will fail shortly afterwards. Instead of stuff lasting 15 to 20 years and longer like things use to last, we're lucky to get 5 years. I'm the kind of person who HATES having to buy the same item over and over and over and over; I'm not saving money by paying $40 for something made in China and having to replace it 4 or 5 times in 20 years verses paying $100 and having it last 15 years or more.

I'm getting off my soap box now.
 
Not to mention the environmental damage that is done by manufacturing and the lax envrionmental regulations in China. We have to live on this earth too.
