72 Products That Are Still Made in America

As the economy becomes increasingly globalized, it's more difficult to find products made in the United States. Yet for many consumers, "Made in USA" is a mark of quality that makes a purchase more worthwhile: Surveys show almost two-thirds of respondents preferring to buy American-made and more than one-fifth saying they'd be willing to pay up to 10% more for an American-made product. Although many popular brands seem to be stamped "Made in China," there are still companies whose products are made right here in the USA.
