That's not the point. Read @Jonny69's previous post above about CE marks. It's not necessarily Chinese products that are the issue.Whatever Pal, I even have a Chinese phone, what do you say about that
In fact we have a lot of stuff in our house with Made In China on it.
Not dead yet Pal.

Dude, I was the Quality Audit Technician at Creda/Hotpoint/Merloni for 27 years.
That explains a lot.

Are nails pre installed?
No, also screws would be better, if you don't have a nailgun.

I've tried many times on here to explain how the Italians made us send out crap.
It got to the point where all the guys in the Lab got the Italian bosses to sign sheets saying they had allowed this rubbish to go to the public.
I walked in the Lab one day and the two Gas Registered colleagues were at their desks in a bad mood. I wasn't an expert on gas but we used to push air through and it had to reach a certain bar (?) and we had a minimum figure, let's say 22, the Italians came in and said the minimum can now be 10. This is one of the reasons since 2007 on these forums I have advised against Creda/Hotpoint/Merloni/Ariston/Belling etc.
I was still warning against them in 2022 - https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/t...-washer-dryer-freezer.18957270/#post-35780071
We did try.
Put it this way, if I had a choice of domestic appliances from Temu or the makes above I would choose Temu.

I was only messing with you buddy but yes main brands seem to produce one super duper item and then live off of that by cheaping out and downgrading crap
