Hmmmm ....: Why is it then - if quality coming out of China can be "all over the map" depending directly upon the specs of the company/distributor ordering the manufacture of it - that in contrast, products coming from Germany are almost universally of good quality?
Could it be that there is some kind of "national culture", or other related thing going on with the personnel and workers within the German industrial complex that helps quality along?
If there is ... then I prefer products sourced from such places with that magic ingredient that helps quality along. I'm not sure that the Chinese industrial complex contains the national culture, or whatever other things, necessary to put together products like Germany does ... regardless of the build-specs imposed.
The answer is simple: As a company you dont quote a product to be made in Germany unless it's going to have a high price point and be at the top of the line quality -wise. AND there must be enough "head room" for some profit.
Germany has carved out an interesting global market niche of producing high quality products at premium prices...it's not where you go if you are SEARS looking to manufacture wrenches.
However remember that one half of Germany also gave the world the Trabant...arguably the worst car ever made...How does that square with the "National Culture" argument?
And remember Virtually all APPLE products and all high tech HD Flat TV screens are made in China...even Sony's. Buick Assembles cars there. And many other high quality products are produced there as well.
