I'd never heard any of these before, I thought they would be talking about AmazonBasics. I've been pretty happy with the quality of that so far. Are their private label brand products generally high quality or cheap knockoffs? The only serious issue I've had with AmazonBasics so far was with a portable battery which was at risk of exploding or catching fire unexpectedly, so it was recalled. Two things to look out for are that they no longer tend to offer the lowest prices, and you could probably receive counterfeits. A lot of companies have changed their tune after taking a beating from Amazon, but unfortunately I think many customers have grown used to going to them for everything, even when it's not the best choice. To give a few examples: You can often find electronics for the same price at Best Buy, and they allow in-store pickup so you might get what you want even faster. Fry's takes it one step further by price matching other technology stores. I'd also trust both to not sell counterfeits. If you're looking for cables or adapters, Monoprice has very competitive prices and they've always been reliable. I've had all sorts of issues with adapters or cables purchased through Amazon. For home and everyday items, Target and Walmart can often be quite competitive as well. Why pay $10 for a shower liner when a $1 or $2 one works just as fine?
