The description says origin US. Is this true? I thought all iRobot vacuums are made in China. Thanks.

According to the information on the bottom of the iRobot, it was made in China.

I looked on the bottom. It says made in China. I only feel slightly guilty about that. It gets up dog and human hair so well.

Yes, it's made in China. I bought it in 10/2010 and it has cleaned 2400 sq. ft with two 100-pound labs for four years. It is my favorite appliance.

I'm pretty sure it's made in China. I don't have the unit here to look at, but I think I remember noticing that. Maybe someone else will know.

I think it was made in Taiwan. I wasn't really looking at that when I bought it. My friend had it on his Wish list.

I don't see cany claim like that on Amazon or the Orb site so I'm not sure where you got that information. And I believe someone from Orb already indicated that the unit is designed in the USA but manufactured overseas. I can only tell you what the label on my unit indicates i.e. designed in Califormia and made in China.

Hi Carmen! Our brushes are made in China and sent here to us in the US. Great quality brushes for a great price!!

Mine says assembled in the Phillipines. I would guess that means parts come from someplace else (probably China, maybe Japan), but no it does not say Made in Japan. That being said, I have been thrilled with the performance after some nice camping trips to Yellowstone, Tetons, Badlands, Colorado, etc. (E.g. I've been using it, in various weather and conditions, without a hitch).

Just looked at mine -- said that it was made in China. I guess even Japanese companies are having stuff built on the cheap in China now -- but this unit isn't cheap!

In says Made in China. I highly recommend this toothbrush, battery lasts forever, but beware of american plug if ordering outside US. I actually used the toothbrush over two weeks on original charge before i got the adapter.

Mine is noted on the pump side as an &lt;AR&gt; pump ( has name of AR, but I cannot easily read it ). It is RMV2.5G30. It notes as made in "P.R.C." I assume that is Peoples Republic of China. What I can say is mine runs great, and I would be more concerned about the engine than the pump for longevity and running smoothness. Right now mine is FANTASTIC and I really like the auto on/off feature. It is as powerful as I need for any of my applications and the spray wand is adequate as a stock wand. Aftermarket wands and heads can be pretty costly. This is pretty good for a stock provision. This is my third power washer, and I like it very well !

I believe Japan, it was gifted. I have a similar model 7310-05420 since 2005, that's why i purchased another. Works great, disassembly easy to keep it clean.

Wow Gramps Jim that is a good question. This answer is coming from a Teamster American worker bee.....I LOVE made in the USA stuff, but having said all that this is not made in USA. It is made in China like most of the generators.

Yes, it's genuine from irobot.i don't know how to tell the difference between rubber and silicone. It feels the same as the item that came with the original machine. I have used it for for months now, and I have not noticed any defect, yet. I vacuum daily.

Mine is clearly marked "made in China" but it seems to be very reliable, is built very solidly and works pretty much as expected. Almost every consumer electronic product retailing at under $1000 of Japanese design is now made in China or Korea. This is clearly a Tascam designed product, and hopefully, Tascam also oversees the quality assurance of the production line. They are , of course, putting their corporate reputation on the line. It's interesting that many people today see Japanese made products as a "gold standard". I'm old enough to remember when most Japanese export products were literally made out of metal recycled from soda and beer cans and were likely to fail in the first few minutes of operation, if they worked at all. Just wait a couple of years and there will be people wishing for Chinese manufactured electronic products, since most production will then be shifted to Iraq and Afghanistan. Anyway, China or Japan, it really shouldn't matter if the device works well (as long as you don't worry about it being made of lead, melamine and used Toyota accelerator pedal assemblies). :-)
