I'm always impressed with 3M's products as I live in the Midwest near where these products are made. I like to support the US economy so it only makes sense that I'd buy a quality American made product like this. It's not something that you buy at a chain store and it's cheaply made or doesn't work as it should, this is how it should be built. In fact, I bet you that your doctors and nurses use this exact model as it's the standard in the medical field. I sure noticed how many carry this exact model in various colors once I ordered one. It's well worth the price and I'd buy again.
