It's a myth insofar as there is no direct causation. A high quality product can be manufactured in China, and a low quality product can be manufactured in Germany. However, what isn't a myth is that products manufactured in China are generally of lower quality than those manufactured in first world nations like Germany.
It's perfectly acceptable to use the nation of manufacture as a heuristic in predicting the likely quality of a product.
- solarkraft 7y ago> nation of manufacture Barely anything sold on Amazon is not made in China. What I use to determine what to expect from a product is the quality of the documentation, which is almost always pretty bad (but sometimes better than on Ebay or Aliexpress).
