With Chinese kit, would you even know if the parts on the spec sheet are actually in the unit? Short of opening it up, you are always rolling the dice.

I've worked on matters where a large Chinese contract manufacturer made a certain consumer electronics product that violated US law because the maker used a part that was 40 cents per unit cheaper. All of the 1000 dollar plus units had to be recalled.

I am not impugning this company, but it is always risky.

Ask where the product was made? Is it the same factory as in the past or does the Western brand just bid the work on a model by model basis?

What quality control is done?

I share michaels skepticism. I looked at picking up their power conditioner and it said it ships directly from their hong kong warehouse? sales & importation taxes to be collected by courier? They claim it competes with other conditioners costing $700 & up? You cant even talk to anyone at the company, they communicate through email only. I would be very careful of anything these guys claim.
Not to impune the retailer, but they are based in Alberta, Canada. Were a problem to arise that wasn't resolved amicably or at least consensually, the fact that they are based in Canada means that you'd have to go there to sue as there'd be no jurisdiction in the US.
