Made in China, no getting around it.

It's fairly well made, doesnt leak, and operates ok. The only structural issue I have is the lifting mechanism is on the flimsy side. The lever you push down on in order to raise the globe bends easily if you're not careful. The main issue I have is the lamentable fact its made in China, even though every other aspect of the lamp would suggest otherwise: it's emblazoned with the phrase " the original dietz" stamped on the fuel tank and the trademark emblem on the glass globe itself. But a quick flip of the lamp underneath reveals the ' made in china' sticker. Im giving it 3 stars because it looks and works well, but still sad that it's made in China.
