I agree with all written here and would pay more for a better built rig. It seams that manufacturers source from mostly the same suppliers and I untill the manufacturers MAKE the suppliers improve their products not much will change. QC at the factory we have all seen the photos of units with red tape on them still moving on down the line. QC tags a unit for a bad or no weld on a wall stud unless it is fixed when tagged it will never be fixed or until it failed.

In a past life I was a plant manager of a small manufacturing operation. As the plant manager I could not overrule the QC manager. The offending unit was pulled out of production and brought up to standards.

This product was not on the road and out in public. It was a grinder for wast water plants. If it failed not a big problem and we had lots of replacement that could be shipped in a day. But the owners of this company demanded that the equipment be built correctly every time.
