Also many things you think are made by the Japs are in fact made in China.

Every appliance repairman (all 3 of them) I've spoken to says that the brand they're called to repair most often is F&P

Not necessarily because they're no good, but more because of to many bells and whistles that when they stop working, stop the whole machine.

I bought some F&P appliances back in 1997 and they still work - the ones from 2010 not so much. They do have bells and whistlers though. Never tried to get one repaired.
