I just received an order of several sets of cutting dies. Their measurements on the site measured the space/ of sheet they come on. That’s all. I had to guess on the size of the coffee cups which didn’t match the size of the stamps-unusable together. I have trouble with breaking apart the dies and getting the whole tiny nib off. It affects only one tiny label die cut, out of 4 sets of dies. Cannot separate the clear stickers and can’t see the tiny edges since they are clear-waste of money!

There's so many sponsored reviews that don't even open the products before saying, " It looks great." and not really trying them out.

I hate it, but I need that brush cleaner. Sometimes dies don’t cut on one edge because the pressure in the machine is uneven. It is recommended to put dies in at an angle for the best results. If you always put things dead centre it can warp your plates and that is another reason that contact is not made with the die. Though your plates looked fairly new so I would guess the roller pressure was uneven in this case. It’s also normal to run dies through multiple times, even with expensive branded dies. Hope that helps 😊

I think the biggest problem people are having with TEMU is the counterfeiting of stamp and die sets. It happens on amazon too but not to the same extent. The stamp industry is struggling and companies are closing all the time due to waning interest and companies like temu, aliexpress and wish selling the same designs for pennies on the dollar and what shocks me is Crafter are knowingly buying the knock offs. That said not all products are sketchy but all of the sellers are painted with the same bush. Most products we buy at any store are made in countries with lower labor costs with less regulation. You are buying made in China products in most stores so why pay more? I get annoyed with the aggressive daily emails I get from TEMU wanting to advertise in my channel. They are getting lots of promotion by sending out lots of free product. Ps I have that same die from stampin up/sizzix.

Sadly, we can't get away from China. I would prefer to buy Made in the USA items, but it's not always possible to find them. One of many reasons China is awful is because they use child laborers, which I definitely don't want to support. But, again, it's hard to find products not made or manufactured in China anymore. 😠 I miss the days where everything was "Made in Hong Kong" or in Taiwan. I'm not sure if they used child laborers (I hope not), but at least the countries weren't communist, which I also don't like supporting.

It's not you, it is definitely difficult to get the backs off of the stickers. I have had a few that I almost gave up on only to discover they were indeed stickers. Here is another tip: Watch for is the amount of items that is being sold. An example: a picture and description will show 12 items for $2.48 but when you are ready to put your item in the cart there are 3 different amounts to buy, 12, 5 and 2. The actual item on sale is only for 2 items. If you click on the 12 items they are $10.98, 5 items are $4.48, 2 items are $2.48. I have purchased a lot of Temu items that are absolutely worth the money. Thank you for mentioning that Temu sells items from other countries as well. We already know that purchasing from discount stores like Dollar Tree, Dollar General, or even stores like Walmart or Big Lots, that a large amount of the items are manufactured in China. What's difference between shopping online from China or walking into a discount store and purchasing products made in China?

Many things do not tell you the size so you don’t know what you’re going to get. I found with shirts, that the sizes are all over the place and that you have to keep looking to find what they are made of. So many of the shirts I liked were polyester and they will not be very cool for the summer.

For men's shirts I found that the brand "hardaddy" (which you can search for on Temu) is a little more roomy than other brands. I can't usually buy "off the shelf" because I'm rather big, but these shirts come in my size and are less that $15. In the US, once you get over 2XL the prices become ridiculous! We just ordered some cotton pajamas for my Mum and they came, they fit well, were of good quality and were about $15 each.

Now when I order from Temu they send little notes of making sure everything's secure, and I'm ok with my orders.

I was disappointed with the sticky notes - the paper was too thin. I liked the earring backs, binder rings, journaling pens in 8 sizes, craft carousel/pen holder, velcro cable ties, identity protection roller (this worked very well), Kokuyo adhesive tape roller (I love the larger ones that I normally buy but got the junior size for my granddaughters and they work well), mini bag sealer (love this one) and a few other random things. I don't have a problem with buying from Temu. I understand the concern that they steal stamp and die designs. Obviously, that is wrong. But it is impossible to know that everything we buy is from the original creator. I'm a scrapbooker and support my local stores as well as online stores. But I enjoy buying some items from Temu and feeling like I got a good deal.

@Jaden R. (J) Temu is a company owned & operated by a Chinese-based parent company. Similar to US-based companies (e.g. Nike), there are various reasons companies establish operations overseas (e.g., to better serve customers, cheaper labor, lower taxes). Unfortunately, we live in an age where many companies are not forthcoming, transparent, & honest about their intentions. Although any US-based parent company could use consumer data it collects here and abroad for nefarious reasons, the original commenter was indicating a higher level of concern because a Chinese-based parent company owns & controls the consumer data collected legally or illegally by Temu's app. It's difficult to be certain that Temu's parent company’s intentions are honorable.

Yes to free stuff. I liked your reviews and heads up about being careful when ordering on a phone. The brush cleaner was really useful. Yes, I've reached for a drink from the water brush cup! I put it in a full roll of duct tape so not likely to knock it over.

I have a terrible time removing the backing on any kind of sticker product from Temu. They actually don’t tell you if an item is a sticker or not. I’ve been fooled enough that I am no longer buying anything unless it specifically says it’s a sticker. I don’t care how much I like it… It Has to be labeled a sticker or a rub on.

I tried temu quilting rulers, as good as store bought. Great quality and if the unthinkable happens ie the dog eats my 6 inch ruler I can get one both quickly and cheaply.

So true! I take it the dog enjoys craft supplies too?? 😉

Congratulations on your engagement ♥️♥️♥️ I'm loving the idea of the brush cleaner, my hubby paints a lot and there are always multiple jars and mugs of water about, though I suspect he would manage to knock this over too 🤣🤣

You need a really sharp, needle tip pair of tweezers or just a poky tool to help you separate things from their backing!! I do too!! I don't know if it's my eyesight or what, but I have the same problem. Spellbinders sell an amazing set of tweezers if you want a suggestion.

I gave up on them - but if I ever come up agains a stubborn sticker in the future... I'll try that!!! Thanks, Mandy!!!

I LOVES me some Temu!!! 🥰 (Especially for clothes, tho..) Personally, i think the MOST vital step is to check the reviews- the overall rankings, the pics reviewers post.. Other shoppers will be EAGER to tell u if something is cr@p!!!

So are the clothes true-to-size or on the smaller end? I used to buy things from Ali Express, and the couple of times I purchased shirts from them was a joke. They not only weren't the size they claimed they were, they were poorly sewn to the point you couldn't even put the shirt on. They'd sewn part of the sleeves, for example, more narrow than the rest of the sleeve. It was weird. Anyway, I have stayed away from Ali Express and anyone else like them as far as clothing is concerned. But, I have heard a couple of times that it's worth buying clothing from Temu. Have you gotten shoes from them, too? If so, how was the fit?

Mini, hi sweetie! Yes to free stuff! Like I said before, I do love me some Temu - got two bags in the mail yesterday (craft supplies, kitchen gadgets, jewelry, shoes, and a dress) and am expecting one more tomorrow). I have found similar "sticker issues", but I think it's just me cuz I do that to myself on other sites as well. I agree with what you alluded to... Size matters!! ...so check the written description. I either need to learn to do the math (centimeters and millimeters to inches) or quit complaining because it's my own darn fault, right? ALTHOUGH!!! ...I used to look at pictures too (like the hand holding the beads in your order) and decide that way as well, but perhaps I shouldn't anymore. Regarding your vision... I still have a couple years on you, so in true "Mini" form you'll likely wait another several years before you succumb and get "real" glasses, but honestly, 🤓 it's not so bad. 🤓. Boy oh boy do we need to catch up! As a teaser, Travis is going to Indiana next month to see if it's a place we'd like to MOVE to, 😳 so yeah, we need to talk. You look mah-velous dahling, and I hope you are well. Big hugs, Mini, MK 🤗❤️🌵❤️🤗

Temu is addictive. I’ve had about a 85% fine experience with them. Great customer service. I got the wrong item and they immediately gave me a credit for it. The best items are some metal dies. Once I ordered two of the same item and at lease one of them had English directions, relief!

I’m a poor American widow. I only get social security. I love Temu and really don’t care where the products are coming from. I’ve ordered about 6 times from temu. Everything is awesome. Iive been a hobby jewelry maker for many years and ordered my beds & findings from mostly from the Fire M place. They are good but OMG the gemstone beads from Temu are so worth it. A fraction of the other place prices. I’ve also gotten shoes and clothes. I love everything I received. Also recently I descovered resin~epoxy to work into my jewelry making. It’s unbelievable how much to choose from. Go for it folks. Quit listening to people who don’t know what they are talking about.
