I’m aware of the issues with imported products vs locally produced products and Chinas politics in general.

However, let’s assume there would be a good reason to buy a Chinese product. How can you distinguish between all those almost identical looking unspeakable brands on Amazon from “proper” Chinese brands with a good reputation and track record in China?

What are the Chinese “equivalents” to European and US brands e.g. in household appliances, tools, IT, food etc?
