I recently was in the market to purchase a new washer and dryer. I was determined to buy American while also supporting a local small business. I had decided to go for Whirlpool because I had heard they were made in America. I found a small independent owner appliance store nearby. When I entered the store, I told the owner that I wanted to buy Whirlpool because they were American made. He quickly pointed out to me that Whirlpools were made in America but many of the parts were made in China. He told me that if I truly wanted a 100% American made product then the best choice was Speed Queen. He went on to say that every part within the Speed Queen was made in America. It’s also the best made product that I could buy and it has been the choice of laundromats for decades because they are built to last. I was so happy with my purchase and they work great. I did have to pay more but it was worth it to me. I accomplished what I set out to do. I bypassed the giant corporations and supported a small business and I was not contributing to China’s slave labor. I would love to hear of any similar stories and what products are out there that we can trust are 100% American made.

About a year ago, I was looking for American Made mattresses for a set of bunks for the grandkids. Found this company with an amazing video of their roots. The service was great and the mattresses are affordable and super comfortable. Here is their site:

I bought some rubs for meat. This company was from a small American company and love it.
Wingy stop bragging about your love life. Jk
Every time we road trip through the United States I buy local rubs and bring them home with me.
Beef in general was my answer
Most beef in US originate from ranches in Mexico then are finished raising and slaughtered in US. lookup Santa Teresa livestock port of entry for example.
Yes, I'd like to learn about accessories that give major headaches to commies.
Can you help me?
But he doesn’t use 100% American products in his pillows
It's true. He does use a patented fill made with Egyptian cotton that's only grown in the Nile River valley...at least that's what his commercials say.

Thank you u/PatriotLady1! Looking for a new organic mattress and excited to have American made with American materials available! 🇺🇸
