<p>Some of the china stuff isn't terrible. I do like their glitter at times and hey, if nothing else... sometimes the bases they come up with are fun and worth it for the purchase alone (heritage bases, clearviews, anniversary lamps, etc...) I usually end up swapping in US globes, but still have been pleasantly surprised here and there with china globes. Everyone has a preference. :)</p>

<p>I have a really pretty white lava/pink liquid china 52 oz and although it flips coil at mostly every start up, once it gets going it has a pretty decent flow. I also have a black lava/clear liquid classic that I got for a steal from kmart on sale and although it's mostly those cueball size blobs of boredom, last nite I noticed it doing some somewhat neat things so I don't know if I'm gonna regoo it or leave it be. I guess it depends on how good I am at it, lol!!!</p>

<p>All of my 40+ lava lamps are China-made Lava Lite lamps. They all function well now, but that was not always the case. I got very talented at replacing liquid for a reason. That typically works to fix most of the problems I've had, but one or two won't flow properly at all no matter what and a decent number of them have wax buildup at the bottom of the globes, although that doesn't really affect the flow too badly, so I can put up with it.

Quite frankly though, I don't think I've ever seen such horrible quality control from any product before. Almost all of the non-Premier size lamps I've purchased recently have required either repair or return to the store.</p>
