When I think of how often Chinese-made electronics fail under normal use, I don’t want them sold here either. We would have cars catching fire left and right.
When I think of how often Chinese-made electronics fail under normal use
Incredibly uncommonly?
Are you forgetting that a LOT of our devices have been “Made in China” for a LOOONG time now?
Im no tankie but c’mon, I get “chinesium” comes from a grain of truth but you also have to factor in the sheer volume of cheap electronics sold that’s made there vs how little really fails in a dangerous or spectacular fashion. In no small part to local regulations not letting unsafe shit that catches fire be sold, usually.
It’s one of those things where yea cheap Chinese products probably fail often but the more expensive Chinese products are quality stuff. I bought some camping lamps from a Chinese company, just a couple bucks more expensive than the chela stuff and they feel and are quality. Been using them for a couple years now and they’re still as good as when I got them.

That’s exactly it though. These cars would be made as cheaply as possible. That’s exactly the type of Chinese stuff that fails.
