I wanted to buy a drills to make a hole in a wall, nothing special, but was interested if I could find anything made in EU and it was so hard!

Firstly I looked for polish (local to me) producer - there is none at the moment. So I tried Germany - traditionally industrialized, sure there must be a lot od options. Turns out it is really difficult to find information about production online - basically if it is not provided, it’s produced in china. I even found some small family business from Germany with photos of it owners etc but had to find a photo of back of the item in peoples’ reviews to confirm - it’s producing tools in China.

This is what I settled with - company that produces most of their tools in China but have special line of items produced in Germany with clear information on it. So I succeeded but it was pretty disappointing experience.
