Can't seem to catch a break

I've heard nothing but problems with hydraulic lifters, is there a quality lifter anymore? American use to be known for their quality and people took pride in their work, what happened?
I don’t have lifter problems. Maybe I’m lucky. But i disassemble and clean them prior to installing and not many people do. I like factory hydraulic roller lifters and don’t seem to have an issue at all with them in mild builds with reasonable spring pressures. Anything made by Johnson/Morel is good quality. Haven’t used them yet but I’ve heard good things about Isky’s red zone lifters and I know comp is coming out with a high quality line of lifters.
