Heat Pump

Filed under: For use in the home, Household Goods — Yankee @ 3:54 pm

Hey Sherman,
I’ve been looking for heat pumps as you’ve requested. I guess I’m way over my head on this one. There are a gazillion kind of heat pumps and that is making it very difficult to narrow down a specific kind.

I found this company where the manufacturing locations are varied but not China, but then I’m not sure if they have the kind that works in the moble home. You can check it out. Sundyne I’m also inquiring with Rheem

DVD – Can’t find it

I have a request for a DVD player made in USA. Unfortunately, I am unable to locate a DVD player. Has any one else had better luck?

Paint Sprayer

Hi Jason,
I’ve found these links that indicate the product is Made in USA. But, just because it is advertised that way, doesn’t mean it is. I’ll be requesting confirmation from the manufacturer. Here are the links for you to peruse while I continue the research.

Campbell-Hausefeld 2305 and 2500

It looks like Sharpe is Made in USA. They say that they have partnered with Graco. I see Graco labeled as Made in USA. It seems that this text would confirm that advertising as well. Check labels and ask questions though. Sharpe

Costumes Made in USA

Filed under: Clothing/Footwear, Hobbies, Recreation — Yankee @ 2:30 pm

Mickey is looking for novelty costumes made in USA for a new online company. Just last week I stumbled upon a manufacturer. I had ripped a tag of a bow that I had just purchased because ofcourse it had the “Made in USA” label on it. So I checked it out. Sure enough it’s the worlds largest manufacturer of ribbons, bows, and wrapping paper. One of their for brand names is Paper Magic. What a surprise to find out they also manufacture costumes! Paper Magic

I’ll do more digging to see if there are others, but I have searched costumes before and never found anything definitive. I’ll search again for you Mickey…
