Not personally, but my parents would pay much, much more for cooking utensils than what “it’s worth”. They live in China, and I don’t think the locals (especially their generation) trust Chinese manufacturing that much… so for anything food- or health-related my parents would just get stuff from say Japan, the US, or the EU. Quite sure mom side still insists on buying kitchen knives from Zwilling whenever she’s traveling
I guess this is becoming more relevant now that Temu is a thing

I dunno’, with all the chemicals around food and microplastics stuff, I’d say they’re pretty wise for getting good tools.
Also she has good taste if she’s getting Zwilling. Good nad pricy, but arguably worth the price if affordable.
