Oil Extractor Recommendation

The CBP still handles that and are very good at documenting fakes without the deadwood. Actually AI is making them more efficient at tracing supply now. Nothing has really changed over the last year. I think having cheap available Nike knockoff sneakers made side by side in slave factories making the real ones for low income families is a win. Many Chinese companies put their own name on products they export that are made to higher standards and do not use slave labor.

Respectfully,… if YOU created a fine product and went to the expense of production …and found someone producing “copy-cat” product and not paying proper wages/benefits to increase their profits making those unlicensed copies….. you wouldn’t feel that way.

By “copy-cat”, I don’t mean making good tennis-shoes of a unique design incorporated similar un-patented features…. Example: Shoe-Strings are not patented. Hook and Loop fasteners are legal once “Velcro” patents expired.…. but the copyrighted trademark “Velcro” should not be used.

IMO

OP, I have a manual/air extractor that works great…but the best thing I have found is this. It gets used a lot and has been very handy. Not cheap…

When I was in charge of the shops at work, cost was important but was much less of a consideration than quality. With that said, I did buy some equipment from across both oceans. In some cases what we needed wasn't even made in the USA.

Now I'm retired. My tools aren't for commercial use. My purchases are made largely by considering cost heavily in the cost/benefit scenario. I'm a hobbyist. I don't have acres of pieces of equipment, a business, a YouTube channel, farm 1000's of acres, have employees - or for that matter, even get paid for what I do. If there's a used or "cheap" tool that meets my needs I buy it.

We're all free to buy what we want, but I try to buy products made in countries that don't have a well-established and well-known habit of stealing intellectual property, so that means products from the US, Japan, Taiwan and Europe wherever possible. Those countries/regions follow international standards pertaining to the quality of materials, the safety and well-being of the employees and adherence to international law regarding intellectual property.

I bought a 6 in 1 trimming tool set from Vevor. ....
Yes, it is cheap stuff but in this case I only need it to work till I get the property under control.
