It might be as easy as that some are made in the USA and some are made elsewhere. I don't really happen to know. I CAN tell you that I have had this for a couple of years now, I believe...and its made a long distance move in a professional moving van, and it did great. It NEVER went out of balance. It still weighs perfectly and I am still very impressed with the quality and construction of it, and I WOULD purchase it again or suggest it to anyone to buy. Nothing actually weighs more correct than a balance type scale, that's why Doctor's offices use these and not a simple little bathroom scale.

I believe the parts or most of the system is made overseas and either fully assembled or finish assembly is done in the US. I f I was to buy another scale I would look for an electronic scale. Cheaper and does as well or better.

does not matter... Made in China stuff is not always bad, made in USA is not always great. the design itself matters the most. if the design has a lot manual operation and process requirements, Made in China may be even better

Just got back from checking the bag it's packed in - it says "Made In The USA". Hope this helps!

"Made in the USA with global materials" means parts were made in China/Mexico/Vietnam/etc, assembled in USA. Very few things are completely made in the USA anymore, and that's not so bad as many would have you believe. Welcome to a global economy.

I thought there was a label on them when I bought it that it was Made in USA.

The package says "Product of USA". The company is in California. I do NOT see the word "imported" (which would mean it comes from outside the USA) any place on the package.

The owner's manual says it is made in USA - but I would check with the manufacturer if that is a serious concern - even products that say made in USA can easily be imported from elsewhere, labelled and sold in the US as domestic.

According to the label, it is made in the USA. I don't still have the label from mine, but in the picture, that's what it says.

There is no origin designation on this item. Since imports must bear country of origin labels, I assume it's made in the US. It appears to be holding up pretty well.

I bought for a gift and can not really say if it was made in the USA or not. Sorry

It has been long enough since I ordered it, I'm not sure. If I find the papers soon, I will let you know. Sorry.. I just now found out. It says made in USA. I hope I wasn't too late answering...

It says on the item made by Soothsoft, but also states "made in China", not in USA. I don't know if that makes a difference or not. Hope this info helps.

I checked mine and it said it was made in the USA. But I bought mine like 4 months ago. So they could have changed.

The box says "handcrafted in the USA" and "insert made in china". The pot has "made in USA" on it and the insert has nothing regarding place of manufacture.

Mine is stamped "China". Other reviewers have mentioned getting models manufactured in US.

On the bottom, it does say "Made in America". There are also some U.S. Patent numbers listed.

The package says "Made in Japan". Made could mean assembled or manufactured, it does not always mean that it is assembled in Japan from all Japanese components by Japanese workers.
