Toyota, Apple, and Marriott are the definition of mediocrity.

Not brand specific, but I feel high-end bicycles are about the highest-quality consumer products I can think of. Not much else out there where everything is carbon fiber, beautifully welded aluminum, CNC machined parts, stainless fasteners, etc.

Even S-Class/Rolls Royce/etc has molded
plastic, stamped steel, etc.

I know of products I think last a long, long, time, but they require some fixing now and then, so I'm not listing them. I think of Quality more as with limited trouble or defects. I guess durable would be the long-term word. I do NOT think they always go hand in hand, although usually a quality product translates to durability. I've found my Mercedes and Jeeps to be very durable, but they require some attention along the way.

Glock
Mobil 1
Sopus
Chevron
Valvoline
Champion
Honda
Toyota
GM (Fire away, but I've had nothing but good, reliable cars and trucks from them.)
Boeing
Panasonic (Matsushita)
Bose
JBL
Evinrude
Lund
BF Goodrich (Michelin)
Continental
Fram (Nowadays)
McDonald's (I've been there all over the world. All have tasted the same. KFC, too, for that matter.)
