Typically, the pro lenses come from Japan. Consumer lenses, like this one, come from Thailand, Malaysia, Philippines and China (and maybe elsewhere). Those coming from China are the ones to avoid, based upon Nikon user feedback that I have come across. This appears to be true for other Nikon lenses coming from China, as well. Not just this one.

Both of my genuine Nikon lenses were made in Thailand, the 18-55mm and 70-300mm. I always call Nikonusa.com when I buy a lens or camera.nThey will verify your serial number and give you all the info to ensure that your product is genuine. Link: http://www.nikonusa.com/en/index.page

I think it was made in Taiwan. I wasn't really looking at that when I bought it. My friend had it on his Wish list.

Macy's website here in California lists it as being made in Thailand. Go figure.

what are you guys all talking about? I'm not sure wheather the seller changed the product photos, but it clearly says product of Japan on the photos I'm seeing. Anyone can clarify if this is Japanese or Chinese product? Makes me doubt evenmore, if people were complaning about it being from China, so the manufacturer just went ahead and put Japan on the back lol???

This particular model number is made in Thailand. If you want the same as pictured made in the Japan only Tiger brand have it.

On further investigation, I did find a piece of the packaging I had saved in Dec 2008 when I bought the 10 inch classic covered frypan. It says Made in Thailand.

I actually had to call the company because these were a gift for someone else. They said that they are made in China & Thailand.

The one I ordered was made in Thailand. I know many of their other teapots are made in China and designed in England. I was thrilled the one I ordered was not made in China.

The one I got was made in China. I was expecting that it was made in Japan, the same as what we had before.

I looked at the set and can't tell. It doesn't say anywhere if it is actually made in Japan or elsewhere or if it is handmade. It is a beautiful little set, is heavy-duty and well-constructed, and very functional.

Mine says assembled in the Phillipines. I would guess that means parts come from someplace else (probably China, maybe Japan), but no it does not say Made in Japan. That being said, I have been thrilled with the performance after some nice camping trips to Yellowstone, Tetons, Badlands, Colorado, etc. (E.g. I've been using it, in various weather and conditions, without a hitch).

Even though they mentioned in the description designed and made in japan i better to ask people who already bought the product prior the buying. Thanks mate this really makes a deference. you're rock

I bought mine last April. It's made in China. That said the build quality looks as good as Japanese and it's worked fine thus far.

Mine was made in Japan but is a almost 5years old now. I hope manufacturing has not moved to China on the new stuff but a gander at a display unit at your local Lowe's will confirm. Their price is twice what you would pay online though but never hurts to look first.
