Why are you searching for cheap Chinese stuff? If you don't want Chinese stuff then just search for name brand products.
Amazon doesn't have a search for only name brand products. You'd have to search each brand individually, which would be agonizing. Even if they did, it would just include bullshit brands.
The only difference between shopping at amazon versus a local store, is that Amazon shows you 100 different Chinese options while your local shop has just 1 Chinese option.
Today it seems like most products are designed by Chinese OEMs and then "American" brands contract them to produce them with their logo on them. You can often find the same product with another brand on it, usually with no other visible changes except being in a different color.
Some of those products might have different internals than the name brand version, but then, the name brand version might have multiple versions with different internals.
