Hi, my home shop has a combination of General, and General International machinery.
The Canadian made General line of machinery is some of the best available in the world, with a price tag capable of supporting the design/comstruction of the machine. It was always superior to the Delta brand, including when Delta manufactured equipment in North America.
General International is indeed made in Taiwan, to strict standards. It is designed to compete with companies such as Delta, who also manufacture their equipment in Taiwan. The GI equipment will cost more than the Delta, because it made to higher standards.
I would be very surprised if you were disaapointed when comparing GI to Delta, or to any of the other machinery manufacturers who build their products in Taiwan.
Regards, Rod.
