Oh my, a smudge! The world as we know it may come to an end.

[@terahhowell]

😅🤣😂 definitely not, but I tried to be thorough with the review and descriptions 😄😉

[@elleng9956]

Lol!!!

[@tinapennington1587]

You can’t be this critical with Temu products. You do get the option of returning things you don’t like or aren’t up to your standards.

[@pamelagoblish4384]

@@tinapennington1587This was exactly my thoughts. After all, it was a garbage can. It’s not like it was a shirt or something. 😂

[@CinSpain]

Japanese, Japanese and Japanese? When most plastic products are made in China?! I think, it's safe to assume the writing is Chinese, just as the products are Chinese... 🤷‍♀️ I'm also sure the adaptor for your tiny vacuum is for when the stuff is into a smaller cavity... Thanks for showing these things... it's always fun to see what the possibilities and choices are 😊

[@terahhowell]

I know, I have no idea why I kept saying that. Lol. You are correct. It could be frustrating, because there's no English directions, if needed. The adapter could also be used for keyboards and many ways! :)

[@beckihaff5151]

The craft item I would be interested in is a flower press. On item I have tried and liked for paper crafting is the glue pens that look like a gel pen. Glue sticks well and I love that it delivers just a spot of glue on tight small places.

[@lynxlady5355]

I have discovered that if an item shows both metric and the 'American' imperial system of measurements, it is ALWAYS safest to use the metric measurements. I have seen a number of examples where a comparison of the measurements is not equal and sometimes it appears that since most of the world is metric, they estimate or 'guess' (not so accurately) at the equivalent in inches.

[@terahhowell]

Very good point!

[@pixxa37]

I am not sure if you ordered it all or Temu @surprised@ you with items, but you got 99% of the things I bought myself! the bento box is super cute, and the mini table hoover is incredibly useful, and works perfectly. It picks up EVERYTHING!

[@kathleen4579]

I have the washing machine, works wonderful. I'll be ordering the mini paper cutter. That little vacuum worked well.

[@cooldaisychick]

I have the Temu brayer and the cricut tools, love them!

[@craftylady8430]

Dollar tree has the 3 gallon trash bags. As far as the clips for drying, check to see if listing says color filled at random. If you can’t use the bags, they do offer return. That was most likely human error. Person accidentally grabs wrong size. I always check back to the listing to see status after I receive my product if there is a discrepancy to see if the seller “discontinued” the item. If so, I know they most likely filled incorrectly just to get rid of the item. I liked your video. Hope you enjoy your products as much as I do.

[@terahhowell]

Thank you 😊

[@loca123670]

None are my favorite, but they are your favorite which is what matters 😊

[@brendabrown8027]

I also have a cute cat desk vacuum and the washing machine from Temu. I love them. I've had to have items refunded and they didn’t want them returned. I've generally been pleased with their products but have found they could improve on securing and protecting items from damage during shipping.

[@terahhowell]

Yes, agreed, good points.

[@kellyvanderheyden9037]

I found your craft room tour and loved it so glad I found your channel immediately subscribed lol love your videos thanks for your time!!

[@terahhowell]

Yay! Thank you for commenting. :)

[@chantalleledesmaa]

Please post the links for the items you got, I have an explore air 2 and I love some of the things you bought

[@Spitfire-je1jy]

It's called a seamstress not a sewist . One who sew s things together

[@terahhowell]

A sewist sews as a hobby, a seamstress sews as a profession. :)

[@lynxlady5355]

I don't find many errors in my TEMU orders, but they have been very good about rectifying any problems that occur. If you fill out the online form TEMU will most likely refund or credit your account (your choice) the amount for the problematic item and encourage you to either keep the unsatisfactory item, gift it to someone who can use it, or donate it so it doesn't end up in a landfill.

[@kathysprowes8831]

I’m glad to see you subscribed. I wasn’t sure if you would or not?😂

[@lesliesimerlink4630]

I love the Vacuum, caddy, brayer, mini paper cutter. Which I will probably order. Thank you for sharing this, as always love watching your videos

[@terahhowell]

The caddy is fantastic, I have it all organized and it's perfect. I used the vacuum today after making an insert card with my Joy. I'm very pleased so far with the purchases I've put to use. Thank you for watching, Leslie. :)

[@suzeq2u]

I’m obviously older than you. Functionality is way more important than color in most of these kinds of things. 😊

[@denisewright6095]

Love the vacume!! Be careful if you order 12x12 cricut mats. I got one it was broke in 4 pieces. On the package it said do not bend and they bend it to put it in the bag that was 9x9. Plus the mailman stuffed in a mail box that it was like tug of war to get it out. Everything else was ok. Guess I won't order mats anymore. Have a great weekendp!

[@terahhowell]

Thank you for commenting. This may be helpful to viewers who read it. I have a good stock of 12×12's for now. However, l'll be cautious in the future of where I order them. Enjoy your weekend as well! :)

[@sandygist7634]

write a review take picture you will get refund

[@sandygist7634]

Also complain to post office so they will stop cramming stuff in your box.

[@elleng9956]

I hope the 3 x 5 plastic bags work. With something in it were you lucky enough for them to fit better in your mailer? I sat here wondering

[@terahhowell]

I have been folding the cello bags and wrapping with a tiny piece of tissue paper, then adhering a "thank you" sticker to secure it. :)

[@tracylamb]

I use to little vacuum to get the pencil to pick up eraser dibbles.

[@heatheredwards7158]

I ordered those wooden hand models for artists, one left, one right. I ended up with two left hands. LOL! Temu refunded my money, no questions asked.

[@terahhowell]

😆 lol, oh my. Good thing they refunded.

Hey Terah, I just subscribed, I really enjoyed your Temu Haul, looking forward to all your videos.

[@whittencreativedesign4579]

Its about a year later since this video ... what did you think about the mini washing machine?

[@terahhowell]

I have it with my RV travel trailer. :)

[@alissalatour7332]

@@terahhowell yes but do you like it?

[@terahhowell]

@@alissalatour7332 yes, it'll get the job done for a few items at a time... 🙂

[@sandygist7634]

I paid 10.00 foe a vac at hobby lobby, no extra add on, so you got a deal.

[@debbiesage8026]

That looks like the same gloves I ordered. I sent mine back as soon as I tried them. Did not protect your hand from the heat.

[@loca123670]

You can fold the plastic sleeve over to make it fit in the mailer.

[@egoreknits]

FYI, doing returns through Temu is very easy. My last order I had 4 things to return because they were not what I expected. I went through the return process and I got my refund within days.

[@terahhowell]

That's fantastic to hear!

[@lisatubbs9393]

Use some of the leftovers packing materials as garbage bags

[@angieineverettcust2934]

Or if they’re cellophane use in junk journals etc

[@robertadejean3081]

The buds work very well

[@marvagraves]

TEMU is good about making things right..Do reviews and they will usually responds to you.

[@darlenekreitzer204]

If you get a sealer you can cut them down to 3in. \

[@CatKnipND]

I want to get the mini washing machine to use to felt some of knitting/crocheting items

[@CatKnipND]

The language is more likely Chinese.

[@terahhowell]

Yes, you are correct. It's a Chinese company. I didn't realize it at the time. I've done more research. My point in mentioning the language of the directions is because they weren't in English at all. So, if you order items that require directions, you might have to wing it and do your best to figure it out.

Great haul! even with the few hiccups! A few times you said something to the effect of "if you're a sewest" . you mentioned the word a few times.. can you please tell me what that is?? thanks again.

[@terahhowell]

Thank you. :) A sewist is a term I prefer to use based on my sewing experience, for me it refers to a person who sews, but not professionally, and often in creative ways. Where as a professional who sews, I would refer to as a seamstress or tailor. :) The terminology is a matter of personal preference. And, I would definitely not consider myself a seamstress. Lol. ;)

did you know you can claim back the difference within a month if the item sells for cheaper than you paid?

How much was the vacuum

[@dianedillon4489]

To make it a lint brush just roll over material then pass the roll under water.

[@christylivingston421]

Hi, new subscriber here. I liked your Temu haul video. I like them bc they give me ideas. That can be bad too bc my wallet doesn’t like it when I shop w/them bc I always have big orders, lol. I’m curious about the small washing machine. I have a RV as well & we have the hook ups but chose not to buy the washer/dryer for it. You are right that sometimes you just need to wash something. Can you share how it is working out? Is it a disappointing buy? I did think of a reason it can be a crafty buy. We just got back from a trip & I was crafting while out. I had on a new tank top, was using an ink pad & dropped it on my shirt. As you know, you really need to wash things immediately if you get glue, paint, or ink on them. I probably stained my shirt bc I couldn’t put it straight in the wash. So, there’s your reason for buying it for craft use. 😂

[@terahhowell]

That's a great idea for use with crafting on the go!😄 We've camped, but I haven't used my mini washer, yet. I'm happy to have it for peace of mind, just in case. 😊

[@beckypetersen2680]

So if you stick the tooth mirror into your mouth to get close to the problem, how do you see it? I'm confused.

[@terahhowell]

To see the tooth mirrors reflection, you would need to be in front of a larger mirror or a spouse, friend or partner could help.

[@LindaMalerba-t6s]

Do I need a bussnies lissecne to open a Etsy shop.

[@terahhowell]

I believe there is a requirement of some sort. It's fairly easy to file for a DBA.

[@beckihaff5151]

Dollar tree sell little trash bags that fit.

[@terahhowell]

Oh they do?! That's awesome! I'll definitely see if my DT has any in stock. Thank you. :)

[@katherineanderson7330]

I just turned your channel on so I’m confused. You said you paid $79 total. Yet the first thing you pulled was a washing machine that I’ve even looking at and they are around $65. You never said the price.

[@terahhowell]

I'm sorry it was confusing. The way that the sales work on Temu is a bit confusing. The washer was $39.09 when I ordered it, however that doesn't include the discounts. It was a good deal overall for my first order. :)

@@pamelagoblish4384 I literally misspoke. If you check my comments I apologized for my mistake. I'm human and made an error. I was not advertising for Temu and I never received a penny of commission from Temu. I shared the good and the bad.

Hi, I have to come back to watch your whole video, but so far, I'm sorry to say that it was a big mistake not to demo the mini-washing machine. Others have been, and that's what I want to see. Everyone knows what it looks like. A step-by-step descriptive demo would have been greatly appreciated. Also, please don't take offense, but I think you talk too slow and drag things out too long, wasting a lot of time. Just feedback, but I think you should pick up the pace. I'll come back another time and give this video another shot, and try to reserve judgment. You seem very friendly and kind.😊
