Made By Yankees

I’ve been unable to locate baby monitors made in the USA. This is the response from Dorel Industries “Thank you for contacting Dorel Juvenile Group consumer relations. Weapologize for any delay in answering your email.We are not currently making any of our models here in the US.The answer would not necessarily be model based as manufacturing plants can vary/change as to where a product is produced.To know for sure where a product has been manufactured, you will want tocheck the box before purchasing it.Keep in mind also that the box would not necessarily indicate where allcomponents are manufactured, just final assembly.”

If you know of any brand made in the USA, please post here for our community to review.

I have been unable to find a child’s bicycle. If anyone knows of a child’s bicycle made in the USA. Please advise as a number of consumers are looking for the Made in USA label on children’s bikes.
Thanks!

NOTE**** Some websites are stating that Trek makes a childs bike. They do not….. Here is their response to my inquiry on 12/21/09.
“Currently, all of our children’s bikes are produced overseas. I don’t know of any company that produces their kid’s bikes in the US except for some high-end, low-volume BMX race bike companies.”
