The Chinese factories just do what they are told. Spec cheap junk, they will be happy to make it for you. Spec quality, and you will get it.
The ironic thing is that if a company is willing to pay for decent quality goods, then the advantage of having it made in China disappears.
A while back, I was doing research to have an IT product made which required some intricate robotics. If I wanted it done right, the cost was pretty much the same if it was made in the US, Germany, Japan, Austria, Australia, China, Canada, Sweden, Russia, or France. If I wanted it absolutely dirt cheap... China was the "go to" country.
I wonder how it would sell making a US company that did basic, high quality wiring (and other electrical parts) production, and had an attitude of "this stuff is for the cool kids, and not for you." I wouldn't be surprised to see the smug attitude actually sell decent quality wiring products in large quantities, to the point where people were basing their buying decision for houses on a haughty brand name that gives the middle finger to everyone, but makes decent products.
