Few pointers ...Elegoo still makes it in China however its no longer making it in the heart of Shenzhen but up north in Dongguan. Dongguan is now the hotbed of 3DP manufacturing since a lot of the conventional 2d printer manufacturers from there (the ones that used to make tattoo printers,thermal label etc. ) moved to Zhuhai. Monoprice is still alive and was never a Chinese company. It was started and still exists in Rancho cucamonga/Brea in California. They white label everything from 3D Printers to optic cables. They were white labeling Wanhao products back in 2015/16. Tronxy team split to form TwoTrees and they are now active in the desktop diode laser and CNC mill product lines. The Product leads (the chief CAD people that owners hold closely) from TwoTrees/Kingroon/Tronxy/Creativity/Wanhao/Dcreate are the same group of names that keep moving between these companies from creative differences or trying to start their own endeavors. A few of these names are ex-creality too.

Thanks, very valuable insight. I wasn't aware about Monoprice? I thought it was the same case as with other "American" brands like Affinity...

Yeah, I can see. I should set the bar higher (like 300).

Once you understood Chinese mindset, easier to understand the symptoms.

I am a teacher, I consider this number of likes good enough to consider it as a 30 (like we consider a 9.5 a 10).
