Logik, UMC, e-motion, Technika all made in Slovakia. Company is UMC
which is an offspring of a Taiwanese outfit. Sainsbury actually list
Slovakia in the specification. The old Chechoslavakia were well know
for their quality rifles etc so I would say they are probably able to
deliver a degree of quality.

Now from the Czech republic, Skoda cars have the best build quality
and are the most reliable of any mass produced brand in the VW Group,
beating SEAT, VW and premium brand Audi.

They do a great line in Semtex as well!

Many an Ulsterman would probably recommend the product.

They sure do have a great quality beer in the original Budweiser (Budvar).
We've been goint to CZ/SK/PL for our holidays for the last 16 years and have
drunk many pints of the stuff :-)

Indeed.

We have to be careful not to make assumptions based on country of
origin. During the communist era Skoda made cheap cars which were not
perfect, and another branch of the company made nuclear reactors which
seemed to work without drama.

I seem to recall that the central hub of that giant bicycle wheel in
London called the London Eye was made by Skoda.

Samsung proudly list Romania as country of manufacture and support. I
had cause to speak to some gal in their technical support, confused as I
was with some dumb firmware that they had programmed their TVs with.

She was nice. Should have asked her out on a date ...

I'm reading this on a 19" UMC monitor with analogue TV tuner branded
Swisstec.

It's well worth more than the £50 I paid second hand for it.

The only problem I've had was not being able to find a remote for it.

Skoda Works, the remainder of the company from which Skoda Auto was
demerged, also makes "trolleybuses, tramcars, electric locomotives,
electric multiple units and rapid transit train systems" according to
Wikipedia.
