I appreciate your views. And yet, for me, it's not just that they're "not American." As you so correctly pointed out, most creative supplies no longer come from the states. For me, it's a matter of not wanting to support Pinduoduo, which is Temu's parent company, as they are known for abusing their Chinese employees. I don't want to sound all judgy-judgy here. I'm sure that I currently have plenty of supply items that were not made in the states. China's overall policy towards workers isn't good - yet. They could become better down the road but are not there as of today. Have you seen the documentary, *Letter from Masanjia* yet? It's at prime US (ironic, I know). You see, this is a human rights issue, too. I'm not a big fan of Bezo' way of treating employees, either. But at least some Amazon locations now have a union. Nobody in China is allowed to have that freedom. I do not buy for a minute that Chinese businesses are no longer punishing members of religious faiths whom they've imprisoned into forced labor. Forced labor without pay is a form of enslavement. I'd need proof that none of that can ever happen there anymore before I'd feel comfortable buying certain items. My discomfort over this issue has led me to cut way down on buying new craft supplies. Which isn't fun. I try to limit my purchases to mostly basic things like glue or paint. I am seriously considering switching brands - Nova Color acrylic paints are currently made in the USA. I already prefer Daniel Smith for watercolors. "Daniel Smith's paint manufacturing facility is located in Seattle, Washington, where it mills pigments and mixes the final paint product." I also buy second hand wherever possible. I stopped buying from the Dollar tree years ago. **It can be difficult at times to find any creative product that has no ties to China. But I aim to at least continue trying.**

Nearly everything is from either the US or Mexico, with a few tropical things from south sea places, where they originate and grow better than they would have here. Very often, I'll see "California" mentioned on the labels of products in the produce section. But never China.

Tanner, I know I am only a few minutes in, but I think the main reason to not support Temu is the fact that they steal intellectual property from small companies like mine and many of the other companies that design stamps and dies. They aren't the same factories making both. And they do use a lot of child labor to make the products as cheaply as they do. I pay more for my dies from China than Temu sells their dies for. The company that I use does pay their staff well and has good working conditions. Not all are the same, but the factories that sell their products directly on Temu are pretty despicable.

Watched your video out of curiosity and then went to the website to check it out. I am a stamper/card maker and the comments I had seen on different platforms said many of the stamps here were designs taken (stolen) from the original designers. I found a number of them when I went on to look. While these designers may then work with Chinese factories to produce their products to their specifications, they have actually done the work to develop these products. Many of the stamps I looked at even displayed sample cards that can be traced right back to the original company. A lot of these designers have talked about how their work is being stolen. How discouraging to do the work and be proud of your designs only to have people purchase knock offs for pennies on the dollar. Some smaller American companies have gone out of business because they can't compete with the pricing on their own designs. That is why I can't bring myself to purchase from these sites even though my crafting budget is pretty tight. But everyone needs to do what they need to do.

I am annoyed when an item is a total knock off but claims it's the same brand. On the other hand I've bought actual items sold under the Tim Holtz name and 2 others that are indeed sourced to sell on these sites now and again. Finally there are a number of lovely companies making their VERY OWN LINE of stamps and dies and craft products not copied from name brands as we know them and I've become a total fan. Also at least in one case a Tim Holtz stamp/die set for cats was stolen from them and or sold in part to Tim H but continue to make the line which is much larger than Tim ever sold them under his name or sourced/bought it from them. So it's your job to keep an open mind and an educated mind as well as a consumer. It's not always knock off only and it can go two ways. I've got some adorable dies that only are made by that seller/producer in China and quality is top. So shop for those and give those a try and keep an eye open for these being stolen in the other markets by the name brands. It does happen.

you do realize that a lot of the time especially with phone cases like she’s talking about in her particular comment, it’s the exact same phone case. made by the exact same manufacturer. possible same child labor. possibly not. but it will be the exact same phone case. i know since i have purposely ordered the exact same thing from temu and amazon to compare. and they come in same packaging. even had the same product item number on it (proving it came from the same manufacturer) same literal everything. only difference? it cost $23 on amazon. and only $1.68 on temu. so you can’t just throw on this story of things being cheaper because they’re probably breaking child labor laws because most of the time the price difference is because there is no middle man. and usually there is more than one middle man which ups the price even more. but you’re just as likely to get something that was made breaking child labor laws on amazon as you are on temu or anywhere else honestly. there’s still tons of “american brands” that pride themselves on being all american that aren’t even that! so if what you’re really worried about is making sure child labor laws are being broken then i would recommend you do research before any purchase you make. from any company. no matter their location or the race of the owners etc. and not just slam “chinese” companies. because there are so many american companies. and even companies from other countries. that will even have a few home base factories to make people believe they are following things by the rules but in reality they’re the ones breaking child labor laws the most. for example by having 3 legit listed factories as the front to make people like you happy (so they see these factories as a small little investment) but are actually making their money with the other 97 factories that are making them the exact same things, but they just have them listed as something else and are usually breaking much more than just child labor laws. and in the end are the worst of all because since you think they’re all by the book with the 3 listed factories you’re willing to pay them even more for their product and they know this. and take advantage of this. so if you’re gonna question a company and accuse them of slave labor or breaking child labor laws just because they’re prices are cheap. you should also be questioning a company when they have the same quality products at extremely high prices don’t you think??? if anything the company selling at the cheaper prices is being more honest about the cost of manufacturing the cost do the supplies used to make the products etc by being able to sell to you for so cheap. the ones charging you more are the ones you should be fearing most because what else can they be hiding from you?

What a fantastic video, Tanner. Thanks for spending so much energy on preparing for the presentation. I have been a devoted Amazon customer for years and was very skeptical of TEMU at first, but I couldn’t resist the deep discounts on craft items I found on their insane website. I have been blown away by some of the items, specifically their floral/greenery picks, bead garlands, burlap flowers, ribbons, and even doggie donut beds. One order arrived a day after the expected date, and I was awarded an automatic $5 credit in my account to entice me to order again. It worked. I have ordered 7 or 8 times (under $25 each) and have not returned any item. Thanks again for stating the obvious but reminding consumers that we indeed have a choice when we make purchases. Your insights might’ve helped a lot of people better understand TEMU. You rocked it. Thanks again. ❤😊

I have had problems within the last five years with Chinese-made appliances and small kitchen electrical things like skillets and blenders. In the last five years, I have had two skillets fail, one dishwasher, and one stove (that we put new elements in). These are not small purchases. These products were purchased from major companies; Best Buy, Kohl's, and Walmart, and they failed!! I'm old enough that I expect a major kitchen appliance to last 10 plus years and they are failing in under five years. So anything that involves electricity I am extremely cautious about.

FYI, there are reviews, written and video, for the items, ALL orders are shipped free, minimum of $15 to place an order, and they have no issues refunding your money within seconds, and tell you to keep the item. The quality of everything I've ordered is just as good, in some cases better, than private vendors, or retailers. I have absolutely no brand loyalty to Amazon, Michael's, Hobby Lobby, or private sellers, who are in the business of making money. PERIOD. I'm in the business of keeping my money.

I have been enjoying Temu since mid Jan. There have been a very few things I was not happy with, I received almost instant credit and so far they have not wanted the items returned. The customer service at Temu so far is amazing. If your order does not ship when they say it will they will give you a $5 credit. The height of the Temu craziness happened at the same time as all the crazy weather in the middle of the US. They could have claimed "act of God" exception but they honored the promise. I think I received at least six $5 credits. The shipping time is quick enough for to keep us happy but just long enough for us to not remember all of what we ordered. So opening the big orange bag can be a little like Christmas. This seems to be a brilliant start up marketing plan, but I doubt it can last forever. I'm pretty sure Temu is taking over the world one debit/credit card at a time. But, for now I am just getting a huge kick out of shopping like a billionaire.

Been an Amazon customer since they began but for the past 3-4 years they’ve changed a lot including letting sellers sell from their platform when they don’t actually have the product YET. They are playing middle man between you, the consumer and TEMU from Amazon! I have made 6 or seven $100 orders from TEMU (mostly florals to cut up and use to enhance projects) but there have been a few things like Tumblers that I’ve gotten straight from TEMU because I could get the exact same ones a seller is trying to sell on Amazon in 10 days compared to the 20 days it’s been taking when ordered through Amazon…, I have gotten several products like that! If I need a certain quality I usually won’t mess with TEMU or Amazon, I go straight to the source!

My preferred craft is paper crafting on the Cricut. The blue mat that came with the machine and the next blue mat didn't last long (I've been crafting for about 4 months now.). The ones from Temu I have gone through at about the same rate, but the price is less than half. Shipping times have been very reasonable and in my experience can take up to two weeks (same as when buying from Etsy). The tracking seems to be very accurate. The problem with Temu is that it becomes a rabbit hole. You receive a LOT of advertisements for great specials. It's easy to forget what you have already purchased and is in the "shipping" stage. There IS a message such as "you have purchased 1 time" when you are looking at the product listing, but there can be multiple listings of the same/similar product from different vendors. It's also easy to look at your previous purchases, but when you're just browsing, it's easy to skip that step. You might SAY you're just looking at it for craft supplies, but there is SO MUCH MORE. You need to read the listing carefully. Some are more descriptive and accurate than others. Pay attention to inches vs cm and look at all of the pictures offered.

I appreciate this review from such an honest influencer! I am a frequent purchaser from Temu. I once found htv for 26.99. It was a 45 FOOT ROLL! It cuts beautifully, and weeds easily. I'm just today going to press it on a tshirt. I haven't found another deal like that. If I'd had more money at the time, I'd have 45 feet of black to go with my white but I'm still happy. Currently my son in law is building me a 3D printer and we're sourcing many parts from Temu. In the end, I should have an 800 dollar printer for less than 300 dollars. Can't wait til it's ready!!

Great video! I've ordered a lot from Temu and have found that everything has been great. I love that you pointed out that Amazon, Dollar Tree and Temu all have items that are made in China. I've done price comparisons between Temu and Amazon for the EXACT same product (model number, box and product) with Temu coming out at half the price. Definitely check the details on whatever product you are buying and look for the size of the item. I have found that Temu does a good job at providing those details and it's the buyers' responsibility to double check dimensions. I have had to initiate returns on 2 items so far, one was damaged in shipping and the other was missing parts - neither item had to be physically returned and the credit was issued immediately. Additionally, if your product does not ship or arrive within the window that Temu gives you, they credit you for $5. I've been credited for shipping several times for either reason. All in all, my experience with Temu shopping has been very positive. Thanks again for giving such a real review!

I encountered the same issue with sizing.

I also bought a phone case which I do like especially for the price but I can tell it’s not super high quality but I’m still happy with it. Shipping was fast as well .

I’ve ordered a lot from them. Nothing I’ve gotten has been shoddy or easily breakable. I’ve seen the exact same thing I’ve gotten on TEMU for less than $2 on Amazon for 3x as much. I was able to replace my crochet hooks that were lost when I moved for 1/3 the price on Amazon. Since I am on a fixed income, that was wonderful. My only complaint, and it’s not really their fault, is the yarn skeins ate very small.

Thanks for all of your research and this informative video, Tanner. I have placed 10-15 orders in the last few months and have rarely been disappointed. I've even found things that I didn't know that I needed. They are very good about refunding your purchase price if there is a problem. And free shipping can't be beat. I've had to pay to return stuff to Amazon, and shipping isn't always free there. One downside is that it usually takes a minimum of 10 days to receive products. Also, the packages come all taped up like customs inspected them. That's ok, but don't fold my "Cricut" cutting mat in half to make it fit better in the package before taping it back up. (Yes, that was refunded as well.) I've bought several crafting tools and many sublimation products, and they all seem to work well. And the prices are cheap enough that you can stock up on various items. I wish that we could get stuff like that in the U.S. as inexpensively, but I'm also a big user of Amazon and Dollar Tree and never connected that. I know that they have made a big splash in commerce, and was a little concerned about that, but I will continue to use them as long as I can. They are like Wish on steroids. Wish lost me as a customer when they charged more in shipping than a cart full of goods. Thanks again, Tanner.

I have been ordering from TEMU for several months now. I’ve gotten clothes, household products(cleaning cloths, drain boards), decorations for inside my car. Nail products, and costume jewelry. I just started buying items to use with my Cricut crafts. I purchased a heat press. Not the mini, one that is about 9 inches. It has an auto shutoff. I only plug it up when I’m about to use it. I unplug every type of iron when I’m finished using it. It works really well. I have used the blades in my Cricut Maker 3. They work well! I also have some cutting mats from there. Also great! I have purchased iron on transfer paper and printable vinyl it works just as well as some the name brand products that I have bought! I have been very pleased with 99.9% of the products I have purchased. The only thing that has been a fail were the sunglasses I got. They seemed like something a child would use to play dress up. That was my only bad item. I’m a TEMU fan!!

Great review of Temu vs. Amazon, Dollar Tree. I have watched many Temu reviews and yours is the first that made a thorough comparison. I was leery about ordering from them at first but after watching many reviews I decided to give it a try. I am 5 orders later and have had no issue other than a tin sign I bought for a wreath which was not packaged properly and arrived dented. I contacted Temu about a return and they had me send a picture which I did, and refunded my money within a minute, and told me to keep the sign or discard it. I am a Prime member and spoiled with the (almost) two day delivery so I don't like having to wait a week or more for my order. lol

At my job I hear a lot of people saying they don't want to buy something because it isn't made in the US and I silently wish them luck, because they aren't going to find it. I love shopping at Temu. I've ordered a few things that have been a total miss, like the door stops that only work if the gap at the bottom of your door is less than an inch. And a lot of things that have been a hit, like the microfiber cloths that are replacing paper towels at our house.

I have bought a lot of hat pins or what they call broaches. All the items were as little as 30 cents to 80 cents. Found the exact items, identical items on Amazon. Instead of an item being 80 cents they would be 9 bucks. On top of that Temu will do price adjustments instantly. If the item goes down they refund the difference. They will adjust the price every time the price goes down. I always check all my past orders just to see if there is a price drop before I place a new order. Got as much as 2 bucks and sometimes more. Add the coupon to that drops the order cost even more.

I've been ordering from Temu and having good results too. I've ordered the "cricut" embossing tip because it was $7.... it is IDENTICAL to the actual Cricut one the I spent WAY more than seven dollars on! I have a fine and deep point cutter delivering today! I've gotten weeding tools, mats - all of which are as good as anything else I've purchased - sometimes better! I also purchased the glass can shaped cups with the bamboo lid and glass straws - a set of four was only $19. I'm not even going to tell you how much I have spent. Lol. I have purchased craft supplies, the small heat press, shoes, purses, rings, crystals, a lamp, dresses, tshirts.... My only actual complaint so far has been a ring that was VERY purple in their photos was more lavender when it showed up. But seriously... it was $3... I still like it, and not even worth haggling over. I'm still wearing it all the time! The only thing I would say is to make sure you pay attention to sizes given in the description or in the pictures, and if you are plus size, it's hard to find tops that fit. Even their 5x is not always as big as it sounds.

Great Great Video. I have placed about 6 orders with Temu over the course of a few months. Returns - can not be initiated until all of that order has been delivered/received. This isn't a problem, but I like to do my returns immediately, otherwise I forget. I have ordered mugs, craft supplies, home supplies, lamps, kitchen supplies, and everything has been up to par. Yes, the pricing is amazing, and take advantage of the free shipping as much as you can. I ordered an array of rhinestones and mugs to create some gifts and they were all amazing ! Yes, it takes a bit longer, but if you plan ahead then you should be fine. They lure you back in by offering more and more discounts so that marketing is pretty good for them. There are some website updates that could be made like having like buttons or creating a wish list. I always put my reviews in because I find them very helpful and include pictures of those reviews. Reading the descriptions is crucial as pictures can be deceiving.

I’m not sure why this video popped into my recommended list, but it did and I clicked out of curiosity. I appreciate the matter-of-fact analysis. One potential issue is like to see addressed by reviewers is that of theft of intellectual property. Please allow me to tell what I know. My husband and his company worked years on developing and refining a costly product that is solely designed to save lives. Other products exist that serve the same purpose in the same situations but this new rendition and design was not only more cost effective but performed better and was flexible enough to be used in more situations than previous iterations. It is a product made of specialized materials and formed in ways that require large and complicated equipment to produce to specs. Only a few places in the US could make this product, and those could not keep up with demand. My husband and his partners began to investigate overseas production potential. A Chinese company was awarded a small contract as a test run. After this test, it was determined this was not a good fit and the contract was ended. Literally one month later knock-off versions of this product (exact design with inferior materials and workmanship) began appearing for sale. Legal advice was sought and essentially the thing is that China does not recognize intellectual property rights, copyright, trademark and so on. Nothing could legally be done about this theft. I don’t know what the answer is to our dependence on overseas goods and (frighteningly) pharmaceuticals. Socialized losses and privatized gains doesn’t work well for the masses, at least in the long term. 🤷🏼‍♀️

I do like Temu and currently waiting for my fifth order. Most of the items I have purchased were craft items. I’ve been happy with the quality for the price. Two of my orders took longer than the 14 days and received $5 credit for each delayed order. I received an item that was a different selection than I chose and received an immediate credit. Another order contained a damaged item that was about $5 and also received an immediate credit. I found the exact same acetate stickers I bought on Amazon for $6 on TEmu for less than $2. Several warnings - any beauty item I ordered has only been so so and I don’t think I’d purchase those again. In addition, I am bombarded with texts and emails about items I might like or items in my cart that I’ve not purchased that are running low.

I'm enjoying Temu myself. I've purchased Matt's from them and they've worked the same as my Cricut and Amazon bought ones just less expensive. I also bought a set with a Breyer and flat tweezers which was a1/3 of the cost of Cricut and Amazon products and they work great. Tanner is correct about everything being about the same (products/ quality) as Wish and Amazon. However, Temu's shipping is MUCH quicker than Wish. Hope this helps.

I have watched a number of videos of people showing off what they bought on Temu but no one mentions that when you sign up you absolutely bombarded with messages from them, it nearly drove me mad. Disabling notifications in you store account does nothing you need to disable notifications on your device as well. Saving money vs saving your sanity, I'll take my sanity everytime

My daughter ordered some silicone candy molds from Amazon and I had ordered the same from Temu without knowing it. Amazon was over $8 and Temu was $1.18! They were identical. The packaging including the SKU codes were the same. I am a Temu fan. I've ordered 4 times and have been very impressed. I only had one item I was disappointed in, it was a locking 1500 ML canister I wanted to store sugar in, but it was not anywhere close to air or water tight. I started to use them to store beads in my craft room, but the locking tops were so loose, I didn't want to risk dropping a jar of beads everywhere. I donated to the thrift store instead of bothering to return. They were less than $1 each in any case.

I am on my probably 40th order from temu without any issues, I had one item show up broken and they were quick to give me a refund without any fuss or need to return the item. I order mainly card making supplies and kitchen gadgets. I tend to stay away from electronics though I did order a set of fairy light curtains which work beautifully. Honestly now a days just about everything available for purchase in the US is from china, even your medications. sad truth its hard to find USA made and sold.

I've really enjoyed getting stuff from Temu! I advise people to keep a tape measure and a metric conversion table on your other tab. I ordered a bunch of round magnets that were laughably tiny! Now I check before I order. Also the low prices trick you into ordering way more items! Where else do you order 40, 50, 60 items all at once! Certainly not at Amazon! Lol!

I've purchased several things from Temu. Everything from seat heaters for my husband's car to faux flowers for crafts. I have found that the descriptions and reviews are essential to being happy with my purchase. Pay close attention to actual amounts you will receive. Faux flowers are often pictured in groups of more than you will get with one purchase. Often the pictures will reveal the true amount. I have enjoyed everything I have purchased so far. Speedy shipping, though not overly protective packaging. Most things come in soft, plastic pouches. I like Temu, but will continue to keep attentive to what I'm actually getting.

Well put together messaging. I do use them. Ordered many times, no issues at all. Mainly ordered beads for my scissor fobs, but recently received my order of large embroidery hoops, my cricut mats were very comparative and I love them. I am willing to wait for my order for the discount I get compared to Amazon. As for being able to reorder, don't count on that necessarily. I buy in bulk for my shop but that is because my items are small.

Such an interesting video. I’m in Australia, and wish we had more products made locally, however, our wages are higher, so products would be more expensive. I struggle with the amount of products coming out of China and would bet most of the products in my local KMart would be sourced from China, and they are ridiculously cheap. Tanner, you’ve got me thinking; I’m a Cricutter and Happy Planner and am now curious where their products are made. I assumed HP was made in the States. Will now check the packaging.

Same stuff that was on Amazon, but cheaper on Temu. I think for a beginner just learning, that's a good way to do it. If u mess something up your not a ton.

I have ordered from Temu.Literally found the same items that i had in my amazon cart for 1/4 the price. Shipping is a little slow, but amazon has also become slow (I am a prime member), Temu averages about 7 days, Amazon 2-7 depending on what I order. I have had zero issues with my purchases from Temu so far whereas I have had orders from Amazon that were total scams. If I added up those same items and purchased them at Amazon I would have spent well over $400. For now, I will continue to shop at Temu.

Thank you for this awesome video Tanner. I have ordered from Temu and I was very skeptical BUT Lordy all the products are the same and much cheaper! I was shocked. I would recommend reading the size of the items when ordering. They send me all kinds of specials and discounts on similar items I have ordered from them in the past and you just can't beat the prices. I make candles and the molds are 80% cheaper on TEMU versus ANY other site. I have ordered mats, the weeding cups and several other items that I just couldn't pass up because of the price! The one negative - how the pack your items for shipping. It is where the cost savings is for them. I have never gotten a damaged item but it wouldn't surprise me if I did. Happy Shopping friends!

I have ordered from Temu 4 times. I have received 2 of my orders and have been very pleased. I’m happy you did this video, and were fair and honest. That’s what we are all looking for. We live in a time where quality and price matter. Anyone who says they don’t have anything in their home from China, are totally uninformed. It’s okay to be conscientious. I will likely continue to buy from Temu.

I have ordered a few times and so far my experience has been positive. Really read the measurements, that’s the only real negative. I choose items that are hard to ruin, like acrylic blanks, but really read the measurements. Shipping time is better than most considering, and all companies have negatives but cost savings is huge. I wouldn’t buy a lot of things from them, but I’m super picky. But it is worth it for some items.

It's wild actually.. I've ordered so much from Temu lately with VERY little to no issues at all and yet, I've spent 3x the amount for things on Amazon that had great reviews and it broke right from the package or wasn't worth my money at all. I do also like that on Temu I'm also able to watch and read reviews on purchases to get a general idea just like Amazon. Measurements matter lol that's the biggest take away from Temu 😅 I also totally get not keeping electronics plugged in but I don't even leave my cricut plugged in since it almost burned my kitchen down 😂 it's like when you buy that mayo at Aldi.. it's name brand mayo in most cases without the company paid label. Make good choices yall 🎉

Thank you for this video! I do want to support local businesses (I live in France), but everything they sell is made in China. It is a nightmare but that’s the reality of the day and I don’t thank our leaders past and present for destroying our local industries. That being said and trying to do the best of what I have. I haven’t ordered anything from Temu yet but I will. For example: I need some watercolour palettes. If I buy one (made in China) through a French company, it will cost about 8/10€ and I will have to pay around 6€ for the shipping. At Temu, the exactly same palette costs 1.60€ with free shipping. I cannot print money, so I buy what I can afford after weighing the pros and the cons.

Thanks for the helpful video! Things that plug in or just tech in general is also where I draw the line. Tech items can easily break if they aren’t good quality or could even mess up your more expensive electronics if you plug them in, not worth the risk. But I’ve been super surprised by the things I did get, crafting stuff/kitchen/clothes/dog stuff, like I was expecting just dollar store quality but it’s been better than that sometimes.
