Build quality is probably about the same as the Redwood.
The Behringer comment was a bit dry sorry but yes for £60 odd its a candidate for any amp that needs a nice looking box .

just because you do, doesn't mean you should.

The Bugera V5 is built to pretty decent specs. Decent thickness board, good transformers. The Epi was poor in comparison. I modified a few GA5s (Harley Benton Epi with tonestack) which I sold on MR and the build construction was OK. The Bugera V5 is a dream to work on, sounds bloody nice in stock form as well.
I played in a band with a guy who traded in China. He often went on trade trips and visited the factories to negotiate pricing. He said each trip he made, the quality was going skyward.
Once China's wages increase to match their economy, manufacturing will move to Africa. The hierarchical concept will follow that of guitar building. Japan > Korea > Indonesia > China .... the setting up of production in Africa is currently being looked into.

Well I suppose if one was to trawl the 2nd hand market you could get a better looking box for less . Probably a non working marshall even ...would certainly beat buying all the knobs , switches and other bits and bobs separately .
