It is super loud. Never quiet. People everywhere. Rude people. Gross people. People literally **** and piss in the streets. Restrooms are an open ditch behind a wall in much of the country. Basically too many people.

You cant eat vegetables, you cant have water or ice cubes etc...You must be very careful if not stomach pains and diarrhea are your fate.

My friends who only travel there for business absolutely hate going. They say it is horrible unless you are into nude massages and cheap/free hookers.

My big turnoff now is that we cant eat the street foods or have fish head soup because of the water quality.

No offense to our Chinese members or my Chinese friends. It is just very different from the USA and a culture shock to most of us.

It's all depended. If you want to place a large order, it is better for you go to the factory to have a look. However, another more reliable way is to hire a quality inspection company to do pre-production and during production quality inspection as well as pre-shipment inspection. Of course, you would only accept the goods if the quality inspection company issue a clean certificate.

Though you have to pay fee to the quality inspection company but you have saved your time and travelling cost. Moreover, you have a third party as a handle for any quality issues.

Concerning the quality inspection company, the big ones such as SGS, Intertek, they have offices and labs inside China. They also have offices in HK too. If you want cheaper alternatives, there are smaller ones such as HKQCC, STC and API. Just google using "quality inspection companies in hk" , you will get tons of result! Hope this can help!

Contact suppliers on alibaba or aliexpress , Ask them to ship you some samples to test , No need to travel to China which costs money .

IF you want to compare quality ..else , Try 3-5 different suppliers and make a comparision
