I wonder if it will be like all the chinese made stuff you buy at walmart. You got to buy a new one every six months cause the old one broke.

If whatever you bought last 6 months you got one of the better ones. Even in S.E. Asia most do not want to buy Chinese anything due to failure or quality control issues.

I guess I've been lucky at walmart then. I tell who is as bad, no maybe even worse is Harbor Freight I don't think anything they sell is made in the U.S. I once tried to buy a 4 1/2in grinder there, went back three times, 1st burned up inside 5 mins, second one inside 30, the last one the grinding wheel wouldn't even screw on the spindle. And never ever buy wheel barrow or hand truck tires there, pitiful pitiful rubber used, shit will dry rot inside the garage. Got good prices though.

We had a premium "Dremel" once. I saw them in the hardware department, 130€. It broke down after using it a few times over the years. The new replacement one was under 10€ including shipping. It's louder, yes, it vibrates more and it looks cheap.

I dropped that one a few times from a few feet height. Like having it in the trunk and use the hydraulic lift and the cable pulls it out. It still works. I was a teenager when the Dremel broke and my uncle bought that cheap one. The 10€ one still works and is from China.
