At those prices, I just see people in countries that have lax labor laws, working at slave wages while American and European jobs continue to disappear. Once enough American and European manufacturers and retailers are forced out of business due to being unable to compete, I don't know what would happen next.

I was beyond furious when, after voting for the philandering panderer, the Clinton Dynasty passed the Bush Dynasty's trade agreements that sent our pollution, technical expertise, jobs, taxes & tradition of slavery to China (who now ranks as our Enemy #1) & made GILDED AGE ON STEROIDS tax-free Clusterfu**ing Conglomerate Criminals their illbegotten hundreds of billions they now use to buy even more lax legislation to benefit themselves while leaving half the world starving. And while offshoring their manufacturing, crafting conglomerates continue to charge unbelievably extortionate prices for their often substandard products that are largely offered online & delivered many weeks later at sky-high shipping rates. So anybody consenting to being continuously treated like useless idiots by these shameless swindlers is ridiculously foolish when they can buy the same thing for pennies on the dollar at Temu.

I have only returned 1 clothing item and they didn’t want it back. I was given the option to get a refund to my credit card or be credited immediately with a Temu credit, which I chose. They said I could donate the item, share it with a friend or anything I would like to do. I also got a credit to my Temu account when another shipment was delivered later than expected. I’ve been very happy with their timely handling of problems and their prices. I’ve ordered from them many times and have a lot of very nice products. I’m able to try things out without feeling horrible about spending high dollars for duds! 👍🏼

I’ve used Temu several times over the last few years. I’ve never had a problem with returns, which is free, as long as you make one return per order. If you return something now, and decide to return something else later from that same order, you will be charged shipping. Customer service has been great, as well.

I made an order with Temu about a month ago. The order was late getting to me and I did receive a $5 discount on my next order. I was fine with this. The quality of the items appears to be decent. I had ordered a replacement lid for my travel mug that didn't fit and when I checked my order I had ordered the wrong size so that was on me. I found it was very easy to opt out of txt alerts and it worked immediately. I will order again. I do agree, with all the offers it is very easy to spend way more than you originally intended to so you have to watch. Overall was a good experience though.

I ordered a Dyson stick vacuum from target in the fall, I was interested in the attachment set, but it was more expensive than I paid for the vacuum, so I checked Temu, and ordered the attachment set from them. One of the attachments was a repeat of one that came with the vacuum, the Temu one is exactly the same as the original. I got a set of 5 attachments for $30 compared to 10 times more on Amazon.

I teach crafts at a senior center. I buy almost everything from Temu or SHEIN. Temu has never disappointed. There stuff is quality and actually you get some of the same exact things on Amazon, but the price difference is quite a bit different. Amazon is very expensive in comparison. My orders from Temu have ALWAYS been before the expected date. I have not tried to return anything, because I learned a long time ago, to read, and reread everything before you buy. I’m very happy with Temu. As far as made in China, try to find most crafts supplies made here in America. If you buy at DT you are buying the same thing from Temu.

I have ordered once from TEMU. I ordered Flat Top Straw Hats for Women, four retractable measuring tapes, two mesh hanging bags, and a pair of "flower girl" white gloves. The order came in an orange plastic bag like the one Norrine showed in the video. I was skeptical how four hats could fit in the bag, and I found them rolled tightly together in the package. I left them laying out on the couch for a few weeks to get the crimps and crinkles out and they were fine for the purpose. I picked these for my grandchildren to decorate for an event- they had an inner tie to make the circumference adjustable, so they were great for that. The measuring tapes are also fine- my grands are hard on my tape measures, but at 68 cents each, these are ok. The mesh hanging bags are on the small side, but they should be ok. Our only real issue was with the white gloves, which had a big bow and little flowers on them. These were hot-glued on with two strips of glue on each and the bows fell off the gloves within minutes. It was not worth returning them- the gloves were ok once I peeled away the hot glue from them. All in all, it was just ok. Temu is based in Boston, but its parent company's principal office is in Ireland. Yet it is clear that the company's products are nearly all Chinese. I made this order knowing this, but I probably won't order again from them. I am in a season of life where I need to bring less into my home and get rid of more. If I can find an item suitable for my purpose that is Made in USA, I will generally choose that. I often consider buying an item only to realize that I really don't NEED it, even if it is cute or a good price. I appreciate your willingness to give an honest appraisal of TEMU in lieu of a sponsorship by them. The lower cost of the items may be helpful to people living on a small budget, but everybody needs to remember "Buyer Beware."

I am a paper crafter who buys from many different American craft stores. That does not mean that everything is MADE in the USA, but I know that it is designed in the USA. One thing that I have noticed when shopping online is that many of the stamps and dies sold by foreign companies are pirated from American companies. No wonder they can charge so much less. They are not spending the time or money to come up with the designs.

I have been happy with most everything I bought from Temu especially the paper crafting items. The clothing is a little hit or miss on the material, what I thought would be a nice work dress is now a nightgown with bonus pockets (because that's what it felt like). The shoes I bought had a horrible chemical smell, few days outside and they are fine. Some were nicely made and I wear them to work, others were immediately put into the scuff around the house box, they hold up well just not aesthetically pleasing.

I ordered carrots that looked like they were hung from a garland and they were not, I just used them around in decorations, and the funniest was a bag of carrots to hang from the tree and they came with nothing to hang them with and they were only about an inch or inch and a half long, lol. I laughed when I saw them, I just scattered them on my tiered tray. All in all not too bad.I think the whole order came to like $18.

I've order things from clothing, kitchen items, makeup and more. I've been pleasantly surprised at all the items. One item I ordered was incomplete and it got an immediate in store refund to use on my next order. Another order was for a handheld mixer, it was very small and the cord was only 2 feet long, plus it was loud and seemed quite flimsy so, I started a return on the website. They not only refunded my money on the card used to purchase but, also told me to keep the mixer and donate it if I chose to do so. Overall I've been impressed with quality, shipping and communications. I will continue to order. Just need to be checking against other online retailers for price comparison and quality. If you are a brand shopper this is not the store for you.

I have been buying from Temu for several months now. So far, it has been worthwhile and I have had nothing to complain about. The only trial and error I've had are clothing items not being true to size. Most tops, I have had to purchase 1 or 2 sizes larger. But I don't mind. I'd much rather find some attractive knit tops to wear with my jeans for $9 to $11 than to purchase T-shirts for $15-$20 that shrink in the first wash. I have been buying art supplies, very attractive and comfortable pj's, kitchen items that have been very low priced and handy, and dog clothes,. Anything I have purchased that was breakable were sent boxed (Glass votive candle holders and acrylic picture display holders) and I have had nothing broken. I'd have to say at least an 8.5 out of 10.

I’ve used Temu about a dozen times now, and LOVE it. I’m thrilled to see Amazon get some serious competition because it was monopolizing the world! Twice I received 3 of something when I only ordered one! I don’t order things that might break easily, so I’m not at all concerned about returns. I bought T-shirts and they were good quality but ran about a size larger. They didn’t shrink when I washed them, so I restitched the seams to make them smaller. Yes, the pillow covers are simply amazing! Think what an 18” zipper would cost to make your own. I bought a ton of fairy furniture for the grandkids, and they will not break, very durable. I know these prices won’t last so I’m doing my Christmas shopping early. The only down side for me so far has been the number of text ads - several per day. I’m glad I never gave Temu my email account. Oh, I bought 3 kinds of artificial plants and they had ZERO odor. I guess I was lucky. So far, I’m really happy with Temu. I live in NM and everything is shipped to me from Los Angeles.

Hi Norrine!! I also tried Temu, and I found out that they do have measurements, not necessarily in the description, but if you scroll through the other views (like you would to look at a color etc) you will see one page that shows the size measurements. Keep a metric to inches cheat sheet, ruler, etc near by. I order $50.00 or more each month. Enjoy watching you!!

I've gotten many orders from Teemu. My overall experience is good. I mostly get craft items, but have received things from all categories. I don't buy into the discounts if you buy more. My expectations for the quality are low when I pay so little. I have been happily that most items exceed. I have learned to scroll through the pictures until I see measurements. There are 2 specific things out if dozens that were disappointing because of size. But I rarely pay over 2$ for anything. I do get confused with all the offers and constantly get texts which at this point I either ignore or open to see if I might want something. Quality has seemed pretty good and shipment time is great. Overall, I like them. I will often see same item further down the scrolling at different prices, it's usually more but I'll change and get the cheaper one. . I loved your review. Thank you, I have been wondering if this is too good to be true, at this point it is good.

I’m a Temu junkie. Anything I order I compare prices with Walmart or Amazon. And I always look at the description and size. They do always put the size of the item on the picture if you scroll. I love the fact that they have price adjustment on your orders. If the prices change (which they always are) you can hit that “price adjustment “ button and they will refund you the difference and apply it to your next order. I always check for this after I order something. It can be a hit or miss but usually it’s a hit. If I don’t like items they will refund my money and I don’t have to ship back if the price is under a certain amount. If I do, it’s free shipping back to them if you request the refund all at one time. The highest I’ve requested a refund on was about $13 and was able to keep the items and get my money back or get credit right away. So when it comes to my money I don’t care about other peoples opinions or comments. I go from my experience and what I enjoy. Buying from “China” or other countries is an un avoidable thing. Here we are just cutting out the middle man 😊 and I’ve ordered those eucalyptus stems 2x’s. The smell isn’t that bad lol

I LOVE Temu. Since I discovered them a couple of months ago I've been placing multiple orders, on average every other week. I would say the majority of the things I'm happy with. And what I'm not happy with doesn't really matter because they're inexpensive items. I'll never go to the trouble of sending anything back. It's not worth it to me. I love the endless scrolling, which relaxes me, and I always find something to order. Amazon is my favorite online store and I order multiple times a week from them. I have to say, though, a lot of the items that Amazon has, such as kitchen gadgets, sell at Timo for a much lower price. I also buy cat supplies, mostly toys. Toys that I have spent $7 for cost a dollar and change at Temu. And if one of my cats breaks it into days, I dont care. Also, there were four separate orders that were late and I got a $20 credit, $5 for each. Then I received a $27 credit. I'm not exactly sure why but it had something to do with the late delivery. And to my surprise, not only did I get the credit but they said they're sending me my items. BTW, I've never had a problem getting a customer service person at Amazon. And they've always resolved whatever my problem was and are very pleasant and efficient.

I bought a large quantity of clothes pins and found out that they were about an inch long upon receipt. I have been happy with gemstone jewelry that I have ordered. And with loose gemstones to make (DIY) more jewelry items. I replenished my sewing supplies.

​@@arlenekrause7115 Yeah, that's sort of my point. This is unsustainable. Clearly at some point, when they've collected a bunch of happy customers, they're gonna have to turn off the free "everything is awesome!" tap or they'll go out of business. I worry about customers who assume they'll keep being treated this way. Are you familiar with how a con man works? The word "con" is short for "confidence", because building confidence is what makes it work. The con man starts by building up the mark's confidence in him and his schemes. Initially the mark is encouraged to test the scheme with a small amount of money, which they are greatly rewarded by. Now confident that the scheme works, they put up a lot more money, only to have it disappear into thin air. That's an oversimplification, but the basic pattern applies to all of these big overseas stores that show up every year or two and have amazing deals where they practically give stuff away. It's mostly cheap junk anyway, probably stuff that wasn't selling well, but we humans react very strongly on an unconscious level to "free stuff". Don't be taken in. Buy from them if you feel informed and sure you can accept less than what you wanted, but be aware of what fate you're tempting.

We have to be very savvyband look at the long-term consequences of our actions - especially buying a bunch of cheap stuff to satisfy our frivolous "wants." I'm sure Temu sells very little that we "need." And all those "just a dollar, or 1.98" adds up to billions in the hands of an economy whose government's aim is to rule the world.

I have ordered quite a few items from Temu and and VERY happy with my purchases. I have gotten many cleaning supplies (sponges, scrubbers, etc); craft supplies (mainly beads); some kitchen gadgets; and yes, I too have tried the double sided "alien" style tape. I started out buying the cute back of the chair covers with Santa on them for the Christmas season and a few cute ornaments and signs for the holiday and I was hooked! I have received a $5.00 refund for an order that was not delivered on time. I check all of the items I buy for other places on-line including Amazon, but not only Amazon, and have saved quite a bit on the items I have gotten. My biggest complaint with Temu is that their descriptions are not the best. It is often difficult to find the exact dimensions of some items. I think people need to realize that most stores in our country and also etsy and ebay sellers also sell these foreign items. You would have to stop buying totally to only buy American. I would love it if we could, but you also have to realize that many of the foreign products are produced overseas for American companies. It is hard to escape the fact that we are all buying foreign goods, hard not to . . . check your clothing labels and you'll be surprised. I will buy where I can get the best price and/or delivery. Service is important also. Ignore the gimmicks and all the extra text messages etc. and just buy what you were actually looking to buy and you will be fine. Don't fall prey to the "checkout" goodies -- it is the same principle as the candy, gum and magazines at the grocery checkout. Keep your eyes straight ahead and buy only what you actually went shopping for and you will do well!

That said, I bought a few items after carefully reading reviews and looking at photos and size of things (so much is much smaller than expected) that I thought would be okay, and so far so good. But there were so many items I could have bought but didn't because they were clearly not of the materials stated or reviews indicated that they were poor quality.

I think I have placed 3 orders with them. I do a lot of woodworking and I agree their descriptions leave a lot to be desired. A few things I ordered were much smaller than I anticipated. Overall however, I have ordered everything from $1 necklaces up to a $50 metal detector, and I have been pleasantly surprised. The lounge dress that I got my daughter was soft and very nice, the necklaces were not high quality in detail but they had a good weight to them. I don't know any little kid who wouldn't have loved them. I ordered some hold down clamps that were way smaller than I anticipated. I'm sure I can find a use for them somewhere. Overall very satisfied

I’ve gotten 2 shipments from Temu- so far, so good. I did see one KZbinr open a Temu BOX. I wish you had answered the phone. I’d be curious about the understandability of their customer service. I don’t care what country you’re from, if you’re going to talk on the phone for your job, people need to be able to understand you. Thanks for sharing! 😊❤️

I have bought quite a bit from Temu. I ordered a lot of rings...the majority are very nice and I get compliments every time I wear them...I ordered some kitchen items that are metal that were kind of rough looking but they do work. I have gotten some items that I did not recognize...I actually had to put the article number in on the website to find out what it was! I ordered a lot of stamps and dies to make greeting cards and I was especially pleased with those...the thing I was most disappointed with that anything in a box came damaged (the box)...it wouldn't be something you would want to wrap and give as a gift. The thing about Temu that worries me is that it is being talked about somewhat like Tik Tok...it is a China company and I have given the company information about myself Olinda order to order and credit card info/PayPal in order to pay for my items...I'm concerned that my information might be used in some way that I might not approve of...does this concern anyone else?

I've ordered from them 2x and had no issues with either order. Both were very good quality. One order was 3 shirts and socks - sizing was spot on in the description and the quality was good. I also order a bunch of building block kits (Lego-type kits) (5) and they were all great! The instructions were very easy to follow and the kits' descriptions were also correct. You definitely need to read everything and look at pictures. Sizing for the kits was in the pictures.

I have been ordering from Temu quite often and have been pleased with everything. Dog clothes are really great. I did have one that was to small they said they would send the smaller size, and I was told to donate the bigger one. I've also gotten baby clothes, great quality and prices from $3.00 - $5.00. As fast as they grow, you are not spending a fortune on something they may only wear for 1 or 2 times.

Great video! I've ordered from Temu several times. Everything you said is spot on. My only HUGE issue is when ordering plus size clothing, buyer beware! Order at least 2 sizes larger than your normal size. Even then, they may be too small. I also noticed Walmart has some of their same clothing items for about 3-4 times the cost. However, Walmart has the sizes pretty close to actual size. Again...buyer beware! ML and happy crafting! 🎉💜

I got caught up in all the hype, too. There were some good craft items, but I also received some cheaply made items. As the old saying goes, you pay for what you get. I made the mistake of downloading the app. I got bombarded with spam text messages and the ones that say something went wrong with your order or your bank card was jeopardized. I deleted the app and opted out of getting further notifications. Since then, the messages went away.

I've had good luck with Temu so far! I've bought everything from craft supplies, Stamping blocks and clear stamps, inks, travel perfume bottles, sunglasses, to earrings(I love❤ their earrings). I have 2 orders on the way! Things to be aware of with the sales and incentives is that the amounts for $ or percents off go down as you keep ordering. So they're not as good as the beginning order. Still pretty good deals on most everything. Happy shopping!❤🎉

I really was happy to see you do a video on this company. I have placed orders and overall been very happy with 95% of the items I have received. I agree with you on the quality of the pillow covers and they have a very nice assortment. I also agree with you on the eucalyptus stems! I could not stay in the same room with them either because of the odor, but after I took them all out of the packaging and left them in the garage for a day or two, the odor went away. I have not noticed an odor with any of the other floral pieces and wanted to give a suggestion to your audience. When ordering the flowers, do a search for "vintage flowers" and you will be very happy with the results! I am a designer and have used the vintage flowers many times! Best wishes!

I loved that you gave a completely honestly review!! I have ordered several items from temu and I have not been disappointed!! I ordered several of their blankets for my GrandBabies and a couple more for myself for Christmas. They were perfect and of great quality, delivered to my doorstep, on time, and exactly as described!! One thing is for certain, ... if you want to be a Satisfied Customer, you MUST READ Through the Descriptions before you buy!! (& Read it ALL the way to the bottom because many times there's still ongoing tidbits of info all the way down!!) Like the blankets: they advertised the lowest price to hook you, but if you didn't read it and just added it to your cart, you would've been disappointed because you'd have received the tiny blanket instead of the larger one shown in the pictures. If you go back and look, you'll find that it comes in 4 different sizes. I suspect that is what happened with the black & white canvas "posters" that you ordered for your daughter. Kudos to you! My first time here, I like what I see, so I've subscribed!! Stay Awesome!! 😊 Shawnee T.

I have placed several orders from Temu and am really pleased with most items. I have ordered a number of clear stamps for card making, small storage bags that fit on the rings of regular binders, a set of 72 watercolor pencils, and a set of 100+ colored pencils. All met if not passed my expectations. The other thing I like is that it is very easy to put things that you see but can't buy at the time, on a list and when you are ready to buy you just click the box by the item and that become your purchase order.

Some items are cheaply made, but for the most part, I am happy with them. I also order a lot of crafts items. If you scroll, you'll usually find the size, plus you can click on the pic and enlarge to see what you are buying. Thanks for your information!

I’ve gotten several orders from them and have generally been very pleased with the items. One thing I got was an organizer box that was just what I needed, but one side had a broken clasp. I haven’t had time to make a return yet so I’ll have to see how that goes. I’ve mostly ordered solar lighting for my yard with one thing being a problem. My only real concern with this company is how I end up ordering much more than normal, because they keep offering great incentives. I just have to not read everything they send!

I have been ordering from Temu almost since they started up. And I absolutely love them. I figured out very quickly to read the specs and descriptions on everything you purchased, and you will not be dissatisfied. I have had absolutely NO problems with the company or the items (which have been a lot) that I have purchased. I do have to say that I am mostly impressed with the fact that you do receive a refund on items that have been reduced after you receive them. So, FYI to everyone...if you go back into you order history and look over all your purchases, there is a place to click that they refer to as a "price adjustment refund" and they will credit you the difference and it can go towards your next purchase or a refund on your card. Right now, I have 8.09 credited back to me that I will use on my next purchase. Thank you for the amazing review!

I have to say, I’ve been pleasantly surprised with everything I’ve bought from Temu. The quality of the clothing is so impressive - high quality and they wash and dry beautifully! I’ve bought some plant items as well, and they’re also really nice material and look great. That being said, I always read through the descriptions really well and look for sizes and measurements. When there are multiple items, like the stickers you bought, I enlarge the screen to see what it is. I think you should have been able to do this and then would have been able to make a better choice for yourself, but it’s a learning curve that I’m passing along to you, if you choose to order from them again. You have to really check the sizes of things, especially the kitchen items. I almost ordered a few things but when I saw the size, I knew it would be dinky, and even though the price was great, you’d hardly be able to fit your produce in it! But again, that’s a learning curve that I learned to do from other companies. I definitely will keep ordering from them and I enjoy watching unboxing videos because I found things that are new to me and I wouldn’t have thought to look for them - like your miter scissors! Those are so cool and something I wouldn’t have known existed until I saw them! I think you could do the sponsorships and still give an honest opinion on the different items. Why shouldn’t you get free items? I say go for it! Thank you for sharing! 💜

I’ve ordered quite a few items from Temu and have to say, “It was fun going through the online catalog, but like you, I’m not exactly fond of their lack of information on each item”. We always wan to know materials used, laundering recommendations where applicable,and dimensions. My granddaughter collects minis and Temu seems to have a plethora of them. I’ll keep ordering until I feel it’s no longer worth my time or money. although, based on their prices, I believe the quality of items is slightly better than what you paid for it on most things

I started ordering from Temu after I saw the many packages in the post office when mailing packages myself. I have been very happy with almost all of my purchases. I usually shop for craft supplies and found many items much cheaper than elsewhere. I have also ordered jewelry, clothing for myself and my grandson and seat cushions for my husband's truck. The clothing sizes are hard to get right, but I have not bothered with trying for a refund. I just donate the unwanted items. I am very careful with jewelry, aware of the difference between Sterling Silver and Silvery finish. The Sterling jewelry is great! Prices are terrific. The truck cushions did not work out. Overall, I am happy with Temu purchases! 😊 But I agree with Buyer beware and a warning not to get carried away with all the deals and discounts! 😢
