LED light bulbs

Again a product that is practically impossible to find. In a very short time, China has completely taken over this segment. Until the beginning of this century, Philips lamps were produced in the Netherlands, later this became Poland, but for a few years now it is completely produced in China. Not o...

Gauze pads

Unfortunately, I have increasingly noticed that gauze pads are coming more and more from China. So be careful when purchasing gauze pads. Also, many professional manufacturers increasingly choose to have gauze pads produced in China. Here are some examples: https://www.medischeartikelen.nl/wp-conten...

Bathroom renovation with no Chinese materials

I recently renovated my bathroom and managed to do it completely without Chinese materials. Of course, for you Americans, the materials I used may not be available for you.

Water flosser, made in Thailand

In my search for a water flosser, I noticed that almost all water flossers are made in China. :cry: The well-known brands such as Waterpik, Philips and Oral B are all made in China.

Chinese made apps

I see an increasing number of Chinese-made apps in the app stores. I would never install a Chinese-made app myself. What is your opinion on this? The popularity of TikTok surprises me as this also is an app of Chinese origin. In India, the anti-China policy is the strongest in the world. Apps have t...

DSPTCH bags and other products, made in USA

I own a tote from the brand DSPTCH. I use it a lot and am very happy with it.
It is made of thick material, which makes it tough and build to last. The quality is sublime, you get a lifetime warranty on it!
