The Tip is 'Ask manufacturers' Some times I have run across an advertisement that implied a product was Made in USA but the product did not have the Made in USA label. Before I buy or put the product on my Made in USA list, I email the manufacturer and ask if their product is Made in USA. If they say yes I ask why their product is not labeled that way. Seldom will they tell me why but many times they will tell me every component that is Made in the USA and those that are not. I then make my decision about buying their product and put it on my list if they convince me. Buying Tip Continued - Read more on Made in America Products by Kohler A LEGACY IN THE MAKING Our company's founder, John Michael Kohler, was an Austrian immigrant, a businessman and a visionary. In 1873 he purchased a foundry in rural Wisconsin that produced a variety of cast-iron and steel products. Ten years later, Kohler took a product in his line, heated it to 1700?F and sprinkled it with enamel powder. Placing a picture of it in the center of his one-page catalog, he called it a horse trough/hog scalder . . . when furnished with four legs will serve as a bathtub. Kohler was in the plumbing business. From those humble beginnings, our company has grown into a multifaceted global family of brands that lead the way to enhance our customers' sense of gracious living. |
