Well, sometimes, actually, yes. Unfortunately you have to do the research to figure out if anyone does it right and the people doing it wrong tend to out-marketing spend the good ones.

For example, house came with a garbage disposal. Within 5 years it rusted through, because why would you bother with stainless steel in something that is constantly soaked with water? Did research, didn't have to spend too much more to get one actually made using stainless steel and that one is still going 15 years later.

Of course sometimes you just don't have options. Like if you want a microwave, it doesn't matter what microwave you get from what brand, all of them are just cosmetic variants/brands applied to the exact same microwave made by one company in China.
