Actually a surprising amount of appliances are manufactured in the USA again - whirlpool conglomerate and Samsung both have a sizable amount of manufacturing in the US
That said Chinese manufacturing is a response to demand. Chinese manufacturing quality is also a response to input. Iphones and pixels are manufactured in China (though this is changing). China will manufacture you incredible things but will make cheap garbage too. If you buy cheap shit don’t blame China, they just filled the role of making something as cheap as possible
As a counterpoint for example: my go to kitchen scale is an oxo good grips. Used it for years. Manufactured in China. Excellent product. I have other scales for when I need fine precision beyond 1g but this scale is my workhorse. Still accurately weighs to calibration weights after like a decade too.
This is why manufacturing origin is pointless. America makes crap. China makes crap. America makes good stuff. China makes good stuff.
