So there’s a ton of Chinese knock offs on amazon. I automatically assume their junk. Yes they may work fine but if they don’t once that may be a bad day. So what is a quality one that is reasonably priced ? Also would consider a used one if someone decided it isn’t for them.
 
Can you provide a URL or name of the product you are specifically referencing?

Disregard, I see you are asking a different question than what I originally thought.
Back to the coffee pot for me so I can think more clearly...
 
Petzl, CMI, Edelrid, Climbing Technology (often abbreviated CT), Kong, ISC, and Camp are very reputable manufacturers. There’s probably a couple more.
Depending on condition, I’d probably buy a used Petzl before I’d buy one from China or Taiwan.

If you want new, watch for sales at BackCountry or MooseJaw, sometimes there’s excellent sale prices.

Hopefully this thread finds someone looking to part with a nice one.
