Spanish term
calidad al alcance de todos
Spanish to English
Marketing
Business/Commerce (general)
Estoy revisando una presentación (oral) de una empresa y han adoptado este slogan.
Quiere decir que sus productos son buenos pero no son excesivamente caros, que cualquiera los puede pagar.
Necesito una expresión que suene bien tanto en el R.U. como en EE. UU.; las opciones que se me ocurren a mí (ej. quality for all) son bastante pobres.
Muchísimas gracias.

Quality within everyone's reach
Shorter and snappier for a slogan. More Google hits than "...the reach of everyone" (which is, of course, also correct).
Could also use "Quality ... within everyone's reach"

Another possibility, although I like it less:

Quality for all!
First - and last - idea that comes to mind here ... even if the asker thinks it's 'bastante pobre'.

quality you can afford
This is not an exact translation but expresses the message, and given this is marketing, is a colloquial yet catchy way to put it.
Note from asker:
| Thanks, Patrice. I used "affordable" in the same paragraph, so I didn't want to repeat. |
