Yes, it is made in Japan and imported by Kotobuki Trading of San Francisco. I could not be more pleased by it's look and quality.

I believe so, although I can't actually look at it right now. It is a really nice dish.

The label says "Crafted in Japan." Whether or not it is made specifically in Seki-City, Gifu-Prefecture, I do not know. It is excellent quality and very sharp for a nail trimmer, imho.

Mine was made in Japan. I would have to venture to say that the Japanese version would be somewhat better because of their reputation. In any event I am well satisfied with mine.

I bought same one, so I think it is made in Japan, it is really! But I do not think it is work for me!

Mine says assembled in the Phillipines. I would guess that means parts come from someplace else (probably China, maybe Japan), but no it does not say Made in Japan. That being said, I have been thrilled with the performance after some nice camping trips to Yellowstone, Tetons, Badlands, Colorado, etc. (E.g. I've been using it, in various weather and conditions, without a hitch).

If it does not say...it's China. Otherwise, it would be marked so as to justify the asking price. Unfortunately, China has not reached the high manufacturing standards that Japan has achieved. I have a Cuisinart stock pot where "France" is stamped on both handles to let you know where pot was made...and price is higher of course.

These are made in Taiwan. To my knowledge, the Japanese facility was closed after some disaster. I'm unaware if it ever reopened.

This brand is in Japan, but I'm not sure this seller sell authentic product . The can that I received has a little damage. And i don't know why she keeps changing her Amazon username . My suggestion is DO NOT BUY IT. Find a Japanese store that nears your area

The product does show 'Made in Japan' so I guess it is true. I can only tell you the batteries lasted a long time. This is the second time I have purchased them through Amazon and they work just fine.

The mug itself does not say where it was made, but I believe the box it came in was marked "Made in Japan".

It's a Japanese company, but mine says made in China. I have been using it every day for 12 years and it still works fine.

It's labeled "Made in Japan." Not sure why that's important. Hario is a Japanese company.

Hello Dioni, This shows as global which means it could of been made in Japan. All products go through a bench test before packing. The warranty stands for a 1 year with the manufacture. Thank you.

I'm sure mine was made in Japan, do not know if they are made elsewhere now. Very well built.

Claims to be Japanese. I see no reason to suspect otherwise. It's a very nice piece!

I just looked at the label on the bottom of the appliance. It says, "Jojirushi Corp. Made in China." I've been using it several times a week for several years and it still works great so I would still recommend it.

I think the box said "made in Japan" but I'm not sure. If I find the box, I'll post again.
