Who makes Gear4Music instruments?

I've seen a lot of positive reviews of gear4music instruments, including a flute selling for £100 (also an open hole flute for a few casholas more)
But I was wondering who actually makes them? And has anyone played one?

Gear4Music instruments are made in China by one of many unnamed factories. I have not tried their flute but I bought a tenor sax from them and while it is not quite on the same level with more established instrument makers, I found the quality acceptable with only a few small issues (i.e. a key cork fell off shortly after I received it but it was easily corrected). I also did not like the mouthpiece that came with it but that was easily replaced by another one that I already had. With a flute, it is not so easy to swap headjoints. I found Gear4Music to be a very reputable company and provided very quick express shipping from the UK to the US.

Also there is a flute by Windsor, very cheap. I have a Windsor clarinet, had it 3 years, it's still very playable. That flute is tempting me, though Windsor have no website.
