I started a thread awhile back to try to archive those manufacturers and the brands they produce. They produce their own domestic brands and then they also produce white label for US based companies like Griots, Torq, Mequiar`s etc... I was told when I purchased my Clover 21mm prior to shipping that they were going to select for me an unit that had the least vibration so that indicates to me that there are units of the same model that vibrate less most probably due to the variables of the mating of the main gears. Like most products in the PRC these days the products are already built/made in at least 2-3 model/price categories and buyers from Europe and North America simply pick the models they want and the price they want to pay to have it custom labelled. This is where the "Made in China" brand gets the bad rap as greedy buyers pick the lowest cost items and try to sell it at the highest retail price tag. A large local brick and mortar chain store here have weekly specials on power tools that can be 70% off the regular retail price and they still make a profit after that just goes to show you how much they paid for it wholesale. For example a 250ft/lbs electric powered torque gun that normally sells for $179.99 often goes on sale during the fall and spring for less than $49.99 when tire changing season rolls around, I got mine for $44.99 and paid for it self just after one use changing the tires on my two cars ! ...LoL
