Most Reliable Bike Brand(s)?

Particularly for Gravel Bikes, which brands have models that have the most reliable & durable construction? Meaning the liklihood of conponent failure is the minimal & QC is the best.

Was close to pulling the trigger a Canyon Grizl 6 for $1300 but I saw many reviews about the bad QC, seat post, component failure, paint chipping easily. Heard about a new Trek AL frame that was cracked (Trek gave a replacement) but this surprised me as they're the biggest frame maker. Cannondale, atleast their Topstone line is notorious for shitty parts and seat/breaks needing immediate replacement.

Which brands, in your experience, control best for Quality and sell the most reliable and long last bikes? From their budget to premium lineup.
