3 month review of my " Anti-Tear in Strong Winds US Flag":


I submitted a 1 star review on Amazon last week, it seems like low ratings take quite a while to be reviewed and posted :rofl:

Hopefully they, the seller, respond to your review and offer either a refund or a replacement.

At this point I’m thinking my Allegiance flag will outlast the wooden flag pole it came with!

Not a cheap flag, but the quality is excellent!

Of courses it is, it’s AMERICAN made.
Everything that WAS made in the US was expensive but truly durable. From jeans to cars!
Dad’s motto, buy once, cry once. I’ve tried desperately to live up to that.

I’ve had to replace 5 TV’s, 3 wi-fi routers, 3 modems, 5 computers, 1 oven, 3 microwave’s, 3 refrigerators, 2 dishwashers, 1 set washer/dryer, 3 audio systems, 3 DVD players, 6 Red Devil water pumps, water faucets, 3 new roofs, 3 water heater’s, 3 garbage disposals, 4 lawn mowers, 4 Xboxs and 1 wife all in 36 years!
And just a reminder all this stuff when purchased was considered “future proof”. Second best joke since they installed a zucchini in the White House.
Today, cry all the time, keep replacing, throw away.
My parents never replaced a refrigerator, an air conditioner, an oven.
My sister replaced me as dishwasher and tv remote!

Buy AMERICAN if you can find it!

It said “Made in USA” when I ordered, but seems they have taken that out of their advertisement. My review went live this morning:

Amazon.com: Customer reviews: American Flag for Outside 3x5, Anti-Tear in Strong Winds US Flag, Durable Heavy Duty Polyester American Flags, Waterproof and Fade Resistant USA Flag for Outdoor

Here’s my review if you don’t want to click on the link:

So far with limited amount of research, I found all flags on Amazon are made in China, found one made in NY.
Being folded in halves, that would have been my first clue to return.
I’ve also found knock offs being sold, I caught them trying to pawn off a pair of driving gloves returning them based on size and received the genuine article with tag and logo on the gloves, previous pair were void of these distinguishing features.
Personally I think everything is counterfeit!

Sam’s Club sells a pretty nice (Well made) American made 3x5 flag for $17.76.

Just before July they sell it with a flag pole for about $34.

I fly mine for two or three seasons in harsh winter conditions and very windy in the fall.

My last one was replaced after 28months (Looked up purchase history) of every day flying because it was faded, (Though not terribly) and slightly frayed on the end,

After much deliberation, I decided to try Elizabeth “Betsy” Ross flag. Once Allegiance got my email they barraged me with no less than 7 emails this afternoon. The $85 Allegiance flag was marked down to $75 with free shipping. The $85 Elizabeth Ross was $59.50 with free shipping. Durability reviews were about the same, so Elizabeth Ross got my money today. I’ll try to remember to give a 3 month review after it gets here.

Edit: this reminds me of trying to buy American tires by purchasing Goodyear - turns out they were made in South America

Is the Red part of the flag for Lenin? :thinking:

What?? I’ve only bought Goodyear (or Kelly, also Goodyear) for years because they’re 1. Good tires, and 2. American made, or so I thought. I know for sure the tires on my truck now are American made. When did you find foreign Goodyears, and what type of tire were they? What a disappointment.
