Brand-by-brand checks, in the brand's own words, with the source and the date we read it.
A lot of “Made in USA” advice online asserts a claim with no source. Every check below quotes the brand's own statement (or, for Traeger's grills, its own SEC filing), links the source, and shows the date we read it. Where a claim covers one line or factory and not the whole catalog, we say so.
