Light Bulbs

Filed under: Household Goods, Office/Business — Yankee @ 5:31 pm

The only long life incadescent bulb mfg left in the USA is
Aero Lights

You might buy them from Sierra Valley Trading

It doesn’t appear as if there are CFLs mfg in the USA any more.

Texas Flourescents is another source but may be geared more toward industrial & commercial.

Electric Fillet Knife

Filed under: Household Goods — Yankee @ 11:31 am

Dennis asked for a search on Electric Fillet Knives made in the USA.

I did a search tonight and so far have come up empty handed. I checked Berkley, American Angler, and Kershaw brands. None of these brands are made in USA.

LED Light Bulbs

I have been completely unsuccessful at finding LED light bulbs made in the USA. If anyone has any information on a manufacturer in the USA. Please help us.
Thank you!

This is the response I received when searching for string LED lights. It comes from www.Inirgee.com. Innovative Energy Solutions.

“You are facing a true dilemma. I cannot find light strings made in the USA. The problem lies with the fact that the vast majority of consumers want “Wal-Mart” prices and that requires finding foreign manufactories which don’t have to pay American Union wages. Even items which are handcrafted in USA are usually made of components which come from China, India, Pakistan or other foreign land with cheap labor (the vast majority of items in the Hobby Lobby stores is foreign-made for example). So, if you consider our lighted wreaths, or metal-frame displays, the structures may be US made, but the lights will be from China. It is an impossible situation which I find to be frustrating on a number of levels. “

Bathroom Scales

Filed under: Household Goods — Yankee @ 9:40 am

The search for bathroom scales has been largely unconfirmed. Two observations I made during my research are as follows.

Bathroom Scale (Caution, the Taylor Precision scale is being advertised as “Made in USA” however the item is marked “Made in China”)

The Detecto brand a branch of Cardinal Scale Manufacturing states “most of the Detecto brand is made in the USA”.

Turkey Baster Made in USA

Filed under: Household Goods — Yankee @ 6:26 pm

Tricia has asked if there is a Turkey Baster made in the U.S.A?

This is what I’ve found so far….
I’ve traced the
Zim Ade
to a company on this page that makes tools in the US. I’ve inquired with them on their household products.

This also looks legitimate but I can’t get confirmation and it seems to be out of stock. It is patented by a company making other products in the US.
