Local Walmart has some small freezers made by Haier in
China.

Anyone know if they are of decent quality and
reliability?

The freezers may well have been built in the U.S. Haier is one of the more
agressive and progressive Chinese producers and have a manufacturing
facility in South Carolina to produce goods for the U.S. market.

According to a story in Forbes, Haier built their plant here to take
advantage of the skilled but low cost American labor. I suspect that this
same facility may produce OEM goods for other brands, such as Magic Chef --
