I don't know about the red part but most everything is made in China. They hold most of or money anyway.

BEWARE! Just got mine. Ordered as I saw this model in the store and the box stated made in USA and saw these answers. The one I received today is made in CHINA. Very unhappy!

No it is made in China. I just flipped it over to verify. It is a great unit and I have not had any problems so far.

Unfortunately, mine was made in China. Mine is red and has a 5 yr warranty.Made in China. Have had it for about 3 yrs and it still works great. The one I bought for my sister about 2 yrs. ago has already been replaced. You just never know .

Yes it is. I did check on the bottom of the unit. 99% of manufactured products today are made in China,

Customer service is in US, and they respond quickly to questions or service issues. However, on the bottom of the unit it says "MADE IN CHINA". I am very happy with my unit, and what it will do. I grew up using stove top pressure cookers, and still have one, but love this one.

I will check but most IR products are from china, Taiwan, or India. It used to be an American product.

I took mine to pieces to find that it was made several years ago (most Chinese products have the date of manufacture printed inside) and therefore not as new as advertised. I used the monitor for something else as in my opinion it has no value. Just my opinion. Sorry can't help you. Get your money back from Amazon.

These are now made in China but if you get lucky some older stock are still made in Japan. There are several reviews about the difference and it's about half and half about the picture quality of the Chinese made model. Who knows you might get lucky. Cheers.

My somewhat dissappointing review just got posted. I would have to agree that the same quality control for made in china products is just not there. My S5IS from Amazon purchased last week was made in China and as I have reported in my review, there was a stuck blue pixel on the LCD in addition to TWO (2) stuck and very obvious pixels on the CCD which is evident in every picture in the same 2 locations when viewed on my CRT monitor.

Made in China. They clearly pay someone to respond to every review complaining that they charge $150 for a radio made by $1/hr labor in a country with poor labor and environmental standards. It's inexcusable. If they start making them in the US, Canada, EU, Japan or somewhere with proper labor and environmental standards I'd buy another one. This radio is good. But whether it's good enough to be a decent value, particularly considering its Chinese origin, is doubtful.

Yes, "Made in China for R.S.V.P. Int'l, Inc." Just found my new one in it's box.
