Outdoor Furniture
Ran across these guys at the TX State Fair a few years back. Bought 3 bar stools for the kitchen bar but since they are outdoor furniture we take them outside if needed for extra pool seating. Very solid, quality stuff made in MN.

Uh oh. Damn you. I really didn't need to see this.

Love hitting up the fair for this kind of stuff that I normally wouldn't find. I've bought this brand as well and it is fantastic quality.

Basically every solar or lithium battery product is of Chinese origin. Even Mission Solar's (San Antonio) solar panels are made with Chinese silicone…

I've given up looking for Made in USA in those markets.

I have been doing research on all new purchases to avoid products made in China in favor of supporting American and our ally's manufacturing locations. Things can be very difficult to find, so I figured an ongoing thread to help each other share info on good products could be useful.

This one has been tricky- I'm looking for a battery station with about 720 Wh capacity.

Hope this thread can help connect people to good products!

Just a suggestion OP: buy a deep cycle marine battery and use a power inverter. I don't know what you will be powering, but I used a set up like this on a camping trip for my CPAP. It powered the unit for five full nights without a recharge.
