I have spent WAY too much money with Temu and I have been disappointed in very, very little. They carry items I have bought from Amazon for considerably more money. They do ship quickly and give you $5 if you don't receive it in a timely manner. At least so far, I am very, very happy with them.
Wow, so you're OK with importing things that haven't been subject to the same safety inspections that normal retailers are subject to. You're OK handling lead and cadmium. When you buy from normal retailers, those retailers are required by law in many countries to eliminate slave labor from their supply chains. But Temu doesn't have to do that. The products on Temu wouldn't pass muster with regular companies which is why they're there. So this means you are OK with slave labor. I hope you sleep at night knowing your goal of saving a little money means literal exploitation.
@@TN-rf7nt stfu Karen or Kevin maybe some of us don't know that information , obviously we just aren't as bored as you to research EVERY DETAILED THING , no, I don't promote slave labor ( as I believe the author's doesn't either again we aren't as bored to spend our lives vigorously researching a company) I want you to prove with a credible source where you found this, education for children is vital part of other countries such as China, Philippines, Japan etc.. , some poorer families may have their kids work , to help survive , and that shouldn't be, but who are you to dictate someone's daily life, you don't know what struggles happen, I don't preferably like BIGO , OR OTHER VIDEO SHARING DATING SITES, they have lines of girls in a wearhouse in front of a camera while they exploit men from our country to send them tons of money, hmmmm yeah again don't down the original author as I'm very sure they don't know what your claiming is happening , with our eyes closed yes that's how we sleep at night. BULLY
@@TN-rf7nt the products are the SAME products as what is sold here. I’ve seen insane markups on items on Amazon, at Target, at Walmart, on Etsy, at JoAnn or Michael’s, and even at boutique retailers and craft fairs in my city. They are all selling exactly the same products. Exactly.
Wow thanks for your comment, I haven't ordered anything as of yet but after this video + all these great comments, I definitely will be ordering soon!! ❤
I agree there are so many bargains! I've ordered so many different items with no problems. Their jewelery is a great value and you can't beat the prices on sewing and craft items IMHO
I have not ordered anything from Temu because I try to not support “Made in China” businesses and products. They have been very successful in blanketing social media with advertising. I’m glad that everyone feels that they’re getting a good deal.
if i could get the products made in America this cheap i definitely would, but nowadays its getti m g harder and harder to make it so when i can get good deals you hetter believe im going to.....no matter where its made!!
I do the same. I try not to buy anything that’s made in China. Some things I have no choice but when I do I will pay more not to give a penny ti China.
I am also curious about where you shop... also I hope you don't have a cell phone because your phone was most likely made, at least in part, in China. Also, what are you typing this on and how are you watching this video? Most computers are also made, at least in part, in China. Even a lot of the processed food we eat and medicine we take in the USA come from China (or at least a few of the ingredients come from China). The only difference with Temu is you are not giving the companies making a profit on the Chinese products more money. Do some research into where the products you buy / own come from!
I haven't gotten my craft supplies yet, but what I can/will say is that THEY HAVE BELIEVABLE SIZES FOR CLOTHING! I'm an extra fluffy human, and I was able to purchase and wear several items.
@@margotsanderford7050 I mean, I'm a 2x here in the states, and a 5x on TEMU, but the fact that I can wear this (and it's not something that says it's plus sized but will only fit my thigh) is a minor miracle and I love it. And I did get my crafty stuffs in. Started with a jewelry making kit. It's exactly as ordered. Not the best, but still decent quality. I've already used it to create a cross body strap for my phone, and it's good.
I always keep a measuring tape handy when ordering fromTemu. They make pictures of several items and the pictures look blown up, when you get your measuring tape and check out the measurements on the item, you're like, "oh" . Maybe not! 😁 This will definitely keep you from disappointments down the road!
@@juliejohnson497 if you scroll through the images on certain items, like food molds, you'll find measurements. That measurement tape comes in handy then! I came scrolling to find this comment actually.
I love Temu! I have placed an embarrassing amount of orders. I just started dabbling in resin, and I have got tools and silicone molds galore. All fantastic. Temu is a very dangerous rabbit hole! I could buy myself into the poor house quickly.
LOL! Very understandable. I'm so glad you mentioned resin tools and molds, etc. I've been dying to try resin.... dabble a little because it looks like fun. And, I have to agree with you about getting carried away with (addicted to) buying from Temu as it is extremely inexpensive. tfs
I believe I’ve placed an order every day since I found the site. That’s only been a week or so. But if the number of orders I place is low (it’s not) then the number of items I purchase each time makes up for it. I’ve only received my first shipment so far, and I’ve been pleased with everything. You are totally correct about the danger! I usually add everything I like to my cart, then go away and chill for a while. Later, hopefully, my clearer head will prevail, and I will delete a few things. They try to talk me out of it. When I say to continue checkout, I enter another danger zone. They bring up pages of stuff I may have “forgotten” to order. They got me figured out right away. Somehow they know what I like and didn’t see. 😂 I just have to stay strong. This is so much fun!
My daughter told me about TEMU about 4 weeks ago so I downloaded the app scrolled twice and found a pair of moissanite earrings exactly like a pair I’d been thinking about buying from Ebay for $100. TEMU had the exact pair for $20. I’m so happy. 😊
Those bulb safety pins are stitch markers for knitting and crochet. The circle bottom fits around most knitting needles. That is a great deal for stitch markers.❤
Like another commenter posted, a measuring tape is handy to have while shopping. If you scroll through an item's images, you'll find its measurements sometimes and that tape will give you a good idea of its size before ordering.
If you don’t mind buying products that can be produced cheaply due to the forced labor of concentration camp detainees (mainly China’s Uyghur minority ethnic group, whose people are forcibly transported to work in the factories in Shenzhen, China), there is no problem.
I just brought my Temu haul in from the mail. I filled my granddaughters Christmas stockings with Temu and now have lots of fun little things for all of their Easter baskets.
I just found it 2 weeks ago and it is like a serious addiction now. Not disappointed in any of the 50 items I got so far, and many of the prices are unbelievably low - some 10% of what I have paid retail for the exact items. I wish they would put a ruler next to many of the pix.
I have ordered a ton. Not just craft stuff, but clothes, shoes, earrings, sunglasses, tools, etc. The only time I’ve been surprised (not disappointed) was when I didn’t read the description. That’s my fault entirely! My kids and husband love it too because they get surprise gifts every time I order!
We order almost weekly. The craft products have been great. Clothing has been quality and true to size. Any errors have been because we didn’t read descriptions closely enough. Hubby ordered a pocketknife which turned out to be about 1” long, but perfect for my keychain and when we reread order the size was listed. Yes, some of the quality is slightly less than Amazon, but we’ve been quite pleased. Got $5 credit on late ahipping and get gifts of 4¢-6¢ every week
Lol i junk journal and TEMU is my go to place for ordering for it…I love it and try doing it once a month and I love it because I never have to wait for multiple packages and it gives you measurements of the package
4/4/23- Endlessly buffering at 4:41 or so, the craft paper/cloth, whatever it is, after the wooden discs. IDK what's going on, but so far have to say good quality video, nice production value, good sound...all that good stuff. Just wish I could see the rest of the video....
This was great - I love the fact that you don't try to create a gotcha moment or unnecessary drama. I've just started ordering from Temu and so far have been really pleased. I ordered a plastic snake for under a buck that literally pulled up so much disgusting junk in my drains. Did every drain in my house, the stick is a little worn but still good to be used again, and I saved myself hundreds in having a pro come snake them for me. Loved this because I was leery of the crafting items and your post really helped me see that the items are mostly quality and useable. I will say to anyone thinking about ordering from Temu, the only thing to be wary of is some brands - for instance, they advertise "Squishmallow" but the stuffies are definitely knock-offs and not nearly the same quality or that unique squishmallow stuffing that is perfect for many autistic people. Other than that, and the sizing being Chinese and so kind of hit and miss for US (esp plus size), I've enjoyed shopping there. Two problems I've found as other comments have mentioned: Some stuff is priced so low that you order it even if you REALLY don't need it. I have so many cool pieces of costume jewelry...and I don't wear jewelry. LOL. I'll give them to my kids who have the same taste (goth meets hello kitty meets wicca), but seriously, should not be buying that stuff! And number two, if something doesn't work out, when you go to return, if you used a coupon, it's just so little money you'll get back for the time it takes to do the return, you end up just keeping the item a lot of times. As much as my local Buy Nothing group will love the things I got that don't fit, it's still wasted money. Admittedly, both of these are ME problems and not Temu's but I'm just warning you in advance to be prepared to say, "oh yeah, that commenter was SO right, I do that too" ;-). As long as you accept this as "entertainment" fees for an enjoyable shopping experience...you're still probably coming out way ahead of what you'd have paid at a Brick and Mortar, or even on Amazon. For anyone used to Amazon's prime shipping, though, the wait between ordering and getting is SUPER LONG. Not gonna lie, we're spoiled rotten, but if you need something quickly, Amazon or a local store is the best option. Just saying.
Great review and I am exactly the same with the jewellery and it is very much costume jewellery and not made for continuous use. It will turn your skin green/black. I enjoy most of what I bought. The clothes and shoes fit nicely.
Thanks, the clothing sizes confuse me. They say a size 16 is an XXL, when here, XXL would be a 22. I'm not sure whether to go with the number, or the letter. I'm trying a blouse this last order, and I went up two sizes, just to be sure. I can give it away if it doesn't work.
I've gotten both clothes and shoes. I've found most tops and pants run true to size. I wear an 18 US, and Temu calls that 3x. I've found that if the item is more close fitting or has fitted arms to go up a size, because I'm busty and have heavy arms. But most stuff fits fine at the normal size. I do pay attention to the measurements, because they are not always consistent from one shop to another. As to shoes, the sizes are all over. Measure your foot length in centimeters and go by that. They always give the centimeters in addition to the size. Quality wise, I'm very happy for the prices! I order most of my clothes from Blair when they have sales, but a lot of their stuff is not my style. Temu has wonderful boho stuff!
I have ordered many different items from Temu, and I have no complaints on anything I have ordered. I have ordered a variety of different items. They are better than Wish, and every order comes in a week no later. Love the free shipping also.
I ordered a strong grip mat from Temu and at first glance it looks the same as the Cricut brand. The first time I used painters tape to hold down faux leather, the tape pulled off the sticky from the mat and after only a few cuts it started to cut through the mat. I won’t be ordering mats again but I have had great success with several other crafting supplies!
I am a customer of Temu, I ordered about $50 worth of clothing, 2 bucket hats, one says New York & the other is moon & star symbol, great quality, 2 pull over hoodies say PINK now this is what I didn't expect ones black & the other one like off white, the hoodies are 100 % polyester, no cotton involved at all it's soft but cheaply made, warm so I'll wear them, I'm actually ordering the rest of my order right now, keep you updated!
I've ordered a few times from Temu and haven't been disappointed. I've purchased fabric, resin supplies, kitchen items, sewing items (the same needles you purchased) and more. So far no surprises and everything is still in good shape-no breaks during use.
I have bought many times from Temu. Read the descriptions to make sure you're getting what you expect as photos may be deceiving. Overall I have been very satisfied.
Thank you! I found your video & decided to watch. You actually reviewed some items I was wondering about. The globe trash piece I was so curious about. I've looked & read about it. I could NOT figured it out. Turned the pics every which way from Sunday! NOW I understand Time we'll spent on your video, thanks!
Dollar Tree now sells the same exact silicone vinyl Waste Collector for $1.25. I just saw them when I was shopping this evening. They felt very sturdy.
I ordered a purse, wallet, lamp, makeup, hair clips, a thing for migraines and a few other things. Everything showed up on time. The prices were really good and the quality was awesome.
@Shannon Hughes What was the "thing for migraines" and did it work? My adult daughter gets them and she's laid low several days a month, so looking for any help in that area... Thanks!
@@cheryldavis8776 hi. It's a blue plastic like thing that fits between the thumb and index finger. It helps some but not 100%. I've had terrible migraines for over 40 years. So I'm willing to try anything I can find. I hope it helps her.
I work a lot with beads. The beads that I have ordered are beautiful, good quality, and exactly as described. I have also ordered jewelry, household goods, clothing, and numerous others items. Fast delivery. I have not been disappointed with anything from Temu that I have ordered. Yes the products are made in China, but until I can get similar products made in America at the same reasonable price. I will continue to order from them.
I’ve ordered twice from Temu. There have only been a few items that were disappointing quality. There have been many items that exceeded my expectations. I think that it’s definitely worth the risk of a few lesser quality items, given the low prices!
We love Temu and order way too much. We had to limit ourselves because we found we were spending too much on our hobbies. Quality has always been =rally good. We're very happy with Temu ❤
I ordered journaling supplies from Temu,stickers,papers ,floral trim and greenery twine. It came within 10 days of irdering and I was pleased with everything.
I have ordered from Temu several times and have been very pleased with my purchases. The only thing I don’t like about some things listed is that there’s no measurements. I try and stay away from those items. Great video and I would love to see how the Cricut blades do especially.
I have been ordering from Temu for over a year and have not been dissatisfied with any of the stuff I have ordered including the clothes! I have received the $5 coupon several times because of not getting the order on time, but it was only a day late. They are true to their word. I LOVE Temu.
I've ordered about 5 times from Temu, and I love them. Make sure you read description. I bought a drain flower/hair catcher that sits across a sink drain, with a ball chain hanging down. Chain rusted apart within 2 months. I told them and they refunded my money within an hour! I had only got it, to keep things from falling down the drain. Still works for that.
I've ordered a lot of stuff from TEMU. Some jewelry, signage, sewing scissors, etc. The prices were great, the quality for what I paid for was very good and the free shipping just seals the deal. Fun stuff you got and I'll look into some of it. You've earned a subscriber as I have never seen your channel before and love crafting! 💚
I have never watched your channel before I just happened to stumble upon it today. I am obsessed with TEMU. I stumbled across TEMU in October 22. My first order was just a couple of items clothing and Christmas earrings for myself. Since then I have spent so much money on this website 😩 The quality of the clothes is amazing. I have a 5 year old granddaughter that I have spent lots of money on for little cute dresses summer outfits and shoes. I have found that if your orders are larger sometimes they do not make it to you on time. The company has given me the $5 credit many have times which then I just turn around and order something that is more high-dollar than their normal things to see what they are like. I highly recommend this website for anyone that is on a tight budget.🎉
I have placed several orders from Temu, everything from needle threaders, sewing shears which are very sharp, to embroidery scissors which work amazing thank you cards and stickers ( beware of sticker sizes they are a lot smaller than they appear. I can't complain about anything I've gotten. The cutting mats for cricut is a little more plastic though, overall I am a return customer.
I was actually very surprised with Temu! I make jewelry and craft so my first order was a small order of semi precious stone beads and some glass beads. I was very happy with the quality and price! I've already placed several more orders because the prices just can't be beat! I'd love to see a follow-up video using the blades and máts for the cricut!! Have a blessed day! 💕
Thanks for doing this video. It seemed like they appeared out of nowhere and were everywhere, so I was a little suspicious. Now that I've seen your video and read the comments, I feel OK giving them a try.
Are you all crazy. . .this is the CCP, the inhumane, evil communist party that hates America & Americans. Why would you allow them to track you and add your data to their data bases? Why would give money to one of the most dangerous regimes in the world? Think forced organ donations. ...they have imprisoned many in reunification camps. . .they are one of the sources of the poison drugs coming from the Mexican border. Please wise up & cease supporting China.
Thanks for this video, I'm currently waiting on a order from temu right now, it's not expected until the 30th at the latest, but they sent me a 5 dollar credit anyway for my trouble, which the 30th is almost a week away, so I'm not totally sure why they sent me the credit, but I appreciate it, I'm waiting on homeschooling supplies, so this video was extremely helpful, thanks
I ordered a cutting Matt, who ever packaged mine folded it in half to get it in the bag. It had a Crease LOL unusable.. . it was the only damaged thing. Glad to see yours arrived in perfect condition! Everything else I ordered was just what I expected it to be!
I love everything that I've ordered from TEMU. I order craft supplies as well as other household things and haven't been disappointed. I bought a new car recently and wanted to 'bling' it up some, so I ordered many cute things from TEMU and all have been really good items. My pets also love TEMU. I don't think you will be sorry you ordered.
I have heard so many things about Teemu and most of the things I heard were great and shipping so quick! I actually never thought about looking through the site for crafting items and I'm a Crafter! Imagine that! Later this evening or tomorrow I am going to definitely go on to Temu to see if I can find some crafting supplies that thus far have been out of my budget range! Thank you for posting honey. Blessings from Gramma Gia in the Ozarks!
We have been ordering from Temu for over a year. I would say to read the details, educate yourself and have fun. I order craft items, kitchen, bath, dog coats. We are happy. Plus if they are late on delivery you get a $5 credit automatically. I recommend the company to lots of people. Often they have "under a dollar sale" so things are cheap enough to have a bit of a spree.
The bulb safety pins are fantastic knitting markers as well and crochet markers because you can open them and remove them from the stitch crochet markers have to open
I love the TEMU site! I have ordered lots of things as I'm a therapist that normally works with children. I have gotten miniatures, craft supplies, etc. And I'm normally very pleased!
When an item you ordered (or you’re going to order) goes out of stock, if you click on the picture it brings you to the page and says it’s sold out BUT if you click on the picture on that page for details it will bring up the picture you originally saw. The weeder ball is now sold at dollar tree as well. Yes they give you a 5 dollar credit if order is not delivered in the time frame they say. I got mine a day late and got a 5 dollar credit.
@@2degucitas I like that idea. Unlike Amazon you wait months for something to get back in stock only later to find out it's never coming back in stock.
I've ordered and been nothing but happy. I learned, from other similar stores, to pay attention to measurements and I read all the reviews with pics and videos. My order came in a week, on the first tentative delivery date they gave me and my 2 free items were good quality. The shipping was free also and I had a TON of beads, a mini humidifier and a car vac in the pkg. My shipping had to cost at least a 3rd of what I spent. I'm going to keep using them until I personally have an issue that changes my current position. 😊
I have put in multiple orders and except for the waiting time for delivery on the last 2 orders,they did come pretty quickly. I was very pleased by the items,and they met or exceeded my expectations. Hoodies,jewelery,ect.
I've ordered from TEMU. LIke you said, came quickly, and I was not disappointed with the items. I bought stamps, dies, sewing supplies and all were just fine.
My experience with Temu has been “ you get what you pay for”. So if you don’t pay a lot, then you can’t expect a lot . My first experience wasn’t so good. I waited 6 months then gave them another chance.. my second experience was slightly better but like I said, you get what you pay for
Hi, I just wanted to say keep trying with small orders, maybe. I am 76 and wishvI had had Temu all my life - I could have saved thousands and I feel the quality os very good (better than the 99c store).
@@juliejohnson497 as I stated before, just don’t expect the quality you could get from other sites/stores. I’m satisfied with my second order for the price I paid. The first order was a disappointment. Have a blessed day!🥰💕
I price check items vs Amazon example massager $4.48 TEMU was $50 on Amazon for exact item... mini blender also cheaper on TEMU, same w knee braces.... I've saved even on baby outfits $18 on Amazon vs $5 on TEMU and the quality has not disappointed- love kitchen gadgets and TEMU has things you'd never think of that w my arthritis has made my life so much easier.... I fell hard down this rabbit hole
The more we purchase from these companies because we need to pay next to nothing for our junk, the more the people who make this,junk will be treated HORRIBLY. I know that doesn’t matter when you’re getting you’re cheap junk and it’s Asians, it’s no big deal, right?
Which is funny cuz i’ve ordered thru Wish several times & only been disappointed by the immense wait time. So if Temu is so significantly better?.. Guess i’m gonna give them a shot!
I've ordered several things from TEMU. My "reviews " would be similar to yours. Every time I get my package, it looks like it went through a lot, but they tape it securely. They tend to package things in a very insecure way, but I don't think I've had anything bent or broken when I receive the order. I also have learned to check carefully for dimensions, a few things I've ordered were much smaller or felt flimsier than I expected, but, like you, I hadn't paid enough attention so it's my fault if not what I expected.
I have purchased mostly kitchen supplies and cat related items (like cute paper clips that look like cats). Not disappointed in anything. As a matter of fact, I found kitchen supplies that made cooking and storage so much easier for a 77 yo shrinking (under 5' now)! And you can't beat the prices. Plus today, I got a text telling me that, due to the storms in our area, things are running slow so I have a $5 credit! Thank you. Plus, I got cards to pass out and gave one to my weekly caregiver, who had never of Temu either, and now she is hooked, too!
@@sciencenotstigma9534 Best thing that happened to me was Meijer finally accepted EBT for grocery delivery! I get everything delivered too. God bless you, dear.
I've bought/ordered a lot of different items. Great shipping. I was happy with all the items for the price except a pair of tweezers. You need to be sure your read in full and look at a couple reviews. I got quite a bit for jewelry making and different rock, crystal, prisms, etc.. All good purchases. Also small kitchen items. Great shoes and a few clothes. When I first ordered, my items missed the date by one day, they reimbursed me for the whole order. Now they give you a 5 dollar credit. Always good shipping.
The safety pins you showed are stitch markers for crochet and knit. I love mine! Now that I know I can find them on temu I'm going to order more. They're PERFECT when doing amigurumi.
I’ve ordered a few time and haven’t been disappointed yet. I do mostly paper crafts and I have fallen in love with their nail art gems, they are perfect bling for cards and 3D structures
I love the nail art bling and use them other crafts that I do. I love most of the craft items I have bought and the disappointments was my fault for not reading the sizes and such, but turned around and found other ways of using them. I put in a large order just yesterday and can't wait till it comes...lol. ❤
I only discovered Temu 2 months ago, and now it's one of the only places I shop. I have compared prices with Amazon, and the prices cannot be beaten! The quality of everything I have purchased has been very good, I've been lucky so far. I have gotten 2 of my co-workers hooked as well!
I have ordered a lot from Temu. I have yet to be disappointed with anything I have purchased. I always read the reviews before adding an item to the cart. I saved a lot of money at Christmas time!
This is my first time watching something from Oak and Lamb and I am a subscriber now! Great review, I felt your review were more honest than some other Temu reviews I've watched. Like others I would love to see a follow up review testing the products. Going to jump into the oak and lamb rabbit hole now and binge watch your videos😊
I've been ordering from TEMU for 4 to 6 months now and have been very pleased with what I've received. I order basically pet, kitchen, and beauty products. I keep my purchases to $5 or less per item and they definitely compared to any other dollar store item you're going to find.
Yes, I have bought lots of things from TEMU, I have never been desapointed . I used to buy things from Amazon and they are excitedly the same, but more expensive.
PLEASE do a follow-up video, I really want to see all these items in action and get your thoughts after using them. Also, what was the name of that felt you said you usually use? Thanks!
I’ve ordered 3 different times. Dies,stamps, 6x6 papers,projector light for teenagers room and all was good. Their good at keeping you posted on when the delivery is expected.😊
This was super helpful and I’ve been holding back on ordering from them which is why I clicked on your video but I’m also a very new crafter so now I’m a new subscriber! 💖
Hi there!! I ordered from Temu and had a great experience. I ordered a spoon for melting wax for wax seals, a marble "coaster" for wax seals, and some never sharpen penciles. I think all told my order came to less than $20.00. It came quickly and everything was above expectations! The wax melting spoon is beautiful! It is a vintage style in brass, and it has a great weight to it when I hold it. The marble is the same- beautiful and functional. The pencils I was truly impressed with- I had never seen this kind before. They are really nice and very cheaply priced. Thanks so much for this video!! =)
I recently heard about Temu and was excited to place an order on 3/15/23 . My order was due to arrive by 4/1 but they sent me an email stating due to high demand they are unable to ship at this time. They then sent me another email offering $5 off my next order plus if I wish I could cancel my order and try later. I will keep my order and will till everything comes in. My order is all craft items and only totals around $50. Thank you for showing us the items you received.
I have spent WAY too much money with Temu and I have been disappointed in very, very little. They carry items I have bought from Amazon for considerably more money. They do ship quickly and give you $5 if you don't receive it in a timely manner. At least so far, I am very, very happy with them.
Thanks for the info 😊. 🙏❤️
Wow, so you're OK with importing things that haven't been subject to the same safety inspections that normal retailers are subject to. You're OK handling lead and cadmium.
When you buy from normal retailers, those retailers are required by law in many countries to eliminate slave labor from their supply chains. But Temu doesn't have to do that. The products on Temu wouldn't pass muster with regular companies which is why they're there. So this means you are OK with slave labor. I hope you sleep at night knowing your goal of saving a little money means literal exploitation.

I ordered a compressor to inflate tiers, balls several adapters to use on sll different things that need air. Very happy.

Wow thanks for your comment, I haven't ordered anything as of yet but after this video + all these great comments, I definitely will be ordering soon!! ❤
For gift giving at Christmas since everyth ing is so expensive would save a lot of money. Lots of good stocking stuffer items.
I agree there are so many bargains! I've ordered so many different items with no problems. Their jewelery is a great value and you can't beat the prices on sewing and craft items IMHO
I have not ordered anything from Temu because I try to not support “Made in China” businesses and products. They have been very successful in blanketing social media with advertising. I’m glad that everyone feels that they’re getting a good deal.
Nowadays it is very hard to find anything that wasn't made in China.
if i could get the products made in America this cheap i definitely would, but nowadays its getti m g harder and harder to make it so when i can get good deals you hetter believe im going to.....no matter where its made!!
So where do you shop then??? Certainly not big box stores
I do the same. I try not to buy anything that’s made in China. Some things I have no choice but when I do I will pay more not to give a penny ti China.
I am also curious about where you shop... also I hope you don't have a cell phone because your phone was most likely made, at least in part, in China. Also, what are you typing this on and how are you watching this video? Most computers are also made, at least in part, in China. Even a lot of the processed food we eat and medicine we take in the USA come from China (or at least a few of the ingredients come from China). The only difference with Temu is you are not giving the companies making a profit on the Chinese products more money. Do some research into where the products you buy / own come from!
I haven't gotten my craft supplies yet, but what I can/will say is that THEY HAVE BELIEVABLE SIZES FOR CLOTHING! I'm an extra fluffy human, and I was able to purchase and wear several items.
Great news for extra fluffy humans! Hahahaha!!! TY😊
@@margotsanderford7050 I mean, I'm a 2x here in the states, and a 5x on TEMU, but the fact that I can wear this (and it's not something that says it's plus sized but will only fit my thigh) is a minor miracle and I love it.
And I did get my crafty stuffs in. Started with a jewelry making kit. It's exactly as ordered. Not the best, but still decent quality. I've already used it to create a cross body strap for my phone, and it's good.
The 2 X clothing I got from temu was given to my size 8 neighbor.
Fluffy humans are the best ;)
I'm fluffy too scared to order clothes . Are they true to size?
I always keep a measuring tape handy when ordering fromTemu. They make pictures of several items and the pictures look blown up, when you get your measuring tape and check out the measurements on the item, you're like, "oh" . Maybe not! 😁 This will definitely keep you from disappointments down the road!
I got a huge amount of spam for several days after searching on Temu. Did that happen to you?
Me too!
Very wise!
Excellent idea - giving the measurements os items is the only thing I wish they would change.
@@juliejohnson497 if you scroll through the images on certain items, like food molds, you'll find measurements. That measurement tape comes in handy then! I came scrolling to find this comment actually.
I love Temu! I have placed an embarrassing amount of orders. I just started dabbling in resin, and I have got tools and silicone molds galore. All fantastic. Temu is a very dangerous rabbit hole! I could buy myself into the poor house quickly.
LOL! Very understandable. I'm so glad you mentioned resin tools and molds, etc. I've been dying to try resin.... dabble a little because it looks like fun. And, I have to agree with you about getting carried away with (addicted to) buying from Temu as it is extremely inexpensive. tfs
I’m just starting resin too, still like Aliexpress better, what do you think?
I believe I’ve placed an order every day since I found the site. That’s only been a week or so. But if the number of orders I place is low (it’s not) then the number of items I purchase each time makes up for it. I’ve only received my first shipment so far, and I’ve been pleased with everything. You are totally correct about the danger! I usually add everything I like to my cart, then go away and chill for a while. Later, hopefully, my clearer head will prevail, and I will delete a few things. They try to talk me out of it. When I say to continue checkout, I enter another danger zone. They bring up pages of stuff I may have “forgotten” to order. They got me figured out right away. Somehow they know what I like and didn’t see. 😂 I just have to stay strong. This is so much fun!
Me, too (embarrassingly large # of items).
I would like to join a support group for people who can't stop looking at and ordering from Temu. Like AA.
My daughter told me about TEMU about 4 weeks ago so I downloaded the app scrolled twice and found a pair of moissanite earrings exactly like a pair I’d been thinking about buying from Ebay for $100. TEMU had the exact pair for $20. I’m so happy. 😊
Those bulb safety pins are stitch markers for knitting and crochet. The circle bottom fits around most knitting needles. That is a great deal for stitch markers.❤
They are also used in junk journals, so the different colours are great
Like another commenter posted, a measuring tape is handy to have while shopping. If you scroll through an item's images, you'll find its measurements sometimes and that tape will give you a good idea of its size before ordering.
I’m very happy with Temu ! From craft supplies, embossing plates, earrings, household items…. All Great so far !
Great except every dollar you spend there is supporting Communist China. NOT A GOOD COMPROMISE FOR CHESPER PRICES!
If you don’t mind buying products that can be produced cheaply due to the forced labor of concentration camp detainees (mainly China’s Uyghur minority ethnic group, whose people are forcibly transported to work in the factories in Shenzhen, China), there is no problem.
I love Temu. It's a dangerous rabbit hole, that is so much fun to drop down.
yes
I just brought my Temu haul in from the mail. I filled my granddaughters Christmas stockings with Temu and now have lots of fun little things for all of their Easter baskets.
I just found it 2 weeks ago and it is like a serious addiction now. Not disappointed in any of the 50 items I got so far, and many of the prices are unbelievably low - some 10% of what I have paid retail for the exact items. I wish they would put a ruler next to many of the pix.
😂
Temu is the new WISH
Those little "safety pins" are actually used as stitch markers for knitting and crochet 😁
I see some use them in junk journals too.
I've actually had them on clothing I'v purchased for the tags. I actually save them...good to know you can buy them if needed.
My first thought too perfect stitch markers.
@@KatyWatson173 I prefer the actual thicker ones that are plastic, but I love these for hanging charms in Journals and other paper crafts
I didnt know that. Thanks for telling us.
I have ordered a ton. Not just craft stuff, but clothes, shoes, earrings, sunglasses, tools, etc. The only time I’ve been surprised (not disappointed) was when I didn’t read the description. That’s my fault entirely! My kids and husband love it too because they get surprise gifts every time I order!
We order almost weekly. The craft products have been great. Clothing has been quality and true to size. Any errors have been because we didn’t read descriptions closely enough. Hubby ordered a pocketknife which turned out to be about 1” long, but perfect for my keychain and when we reread order the size was listed. Yes, some of the quality is slightly less than Amazon, but we’ve been quite pleased. Got $5 credit on late ahipping and get gifts of 4¢-6¢ every week
Those little safety pins are great stitch markers for crochet/knitting!
That’s what I thought they were 😁😁
That was my thought exactly. In fact I have some that look the same.
I junk journal, and am obsessed with everything I have gotten from TEMU. I haven’t gotten anything I don’t like so far.
Lol i junk journal and TEMU is my go to place for ordering for it…I love it and try doing it once a month and I love it because I never have to wait for multiple packages and it gives you measurements of the package
I am so excited, I was a little scared mainly because the prices were so low. Thank you so much for the input concerning Temu. I'm ready to shop.
4/4/23- Endlessly buffering at 4:41 or so, the craft paper/cloth, whatever it is, after the wooden discs. IDK what's going on, but so far have to say good quality video, nice production value, good sound...all that good stuff. Just wish I could see the rest of the video....
This was great - I love the fact that you don't try to create a gotcha moment or unnecessary drama. I've just started ordering from Temu and so far have been really pleased. I ordered a plastic snake for under a buck that literally pulled up so much disgusting junk in my drains. Did every drain in my house, the stick is a little worn but still good to be used again, and I saved myself hundreds in having a pro come snake them for me.
Loved this because I was leery of the crafting items and your post really helped me see that the items are mostly quality and useable.
I will say to anyone thinking about ordering from Temu, the only thing to be wary of is some brands - for instance, they advertise "Squishmallow" but the stuffies are definitely knock-offs and not nearly the same quality or that unique squishmallow stuffing that is perfect for many autistic people.
Other than that, and the sizing being Chinese and so kind of hit and miss for US (esp plus size), I've enjoyed shopping there.
Two problems I've found as other comments have mentioned: Some stuff is priced so low that you order it even if you REALLY don't need it. I have so many cool pieces of costume jewelry...and I don't wear jewelry. LOL. I'll give them to my kids who have the same taste (goth meets hello kitty meets wicca), but seriously, should not be buying that stuff! And number two, if something doesn't work out, when you go to return, if you used a coupon, it's just so little money you'll get back for the time it takes to do the return, you end up just keeping the item a lot of times. As much as my local Buy Nothing group will love the things I got that don't fit, it's still wasted money. Admittedly, both of these are ME problems and not Temu's but I'm just warning you in advance to be prepared to say, "oh yeah, that commenter was SO right, I do that too" ;-). As long as you accept this as "entertainment" fees for an enjoyable shopping experience...you're still probably coming out way ahead of what you'd have paid at a Brick and Mortar, or even on Amazon.
For anyone used to Amazon's prime shipping, though, the wait between ordering and getting is SUPER LONG. Not gonna lie, we're spoiled rotten, but if you need something quickly, Amazon or a local store is the best option. Just saying.
This was a really good review with a gentle caveat of "buyer be aware". Thank you!
Great review and I am exactly the same with the jewellery and it is very much costume jewellery and not made for continuous use. It will turn your skin green/black. I enjoy most of what I bought. The clothes and shoes fit nicely.
I’ve ordered at least 10 times and I’ve been pleasantly surprised with everything but when ordering clothes I’ve always ordered up a size
Thanks, the clothing sizes confuse me. They say a size 16 is an XXL, when here, XXL would be a 22. I'm not sure whether to go with the number, or the letter. I'm trying a blouse this last order, and I went up two sizes, just to be sure. I can give it away if it doesn't work.
I'm small, should I order a medium then?
@@abijahdixon2771 yes, their clothes are always smaller than our sizes
@@cariwaldick4898 their return policy is supposed to be easy, per a friend, if it doesn't fit
I've gotten both clothes and shoes. I've found most tops and pants run true to size. I wear an 18 US, and Temu calls that 3x. I've found that if the item is more close fitting or has fitted arms to go up a size, because I'm busty and have heavy arms. But most stuff fits fine at the normal size. I do pay attention to the measurements, because they are not always consistent from one shop to another. As to shoes, the sizes are all over. Measure your foot length in centimeters and go by that. They always give the centimeters in addition to the size. Quality wise, I'm very happy for the prices! I order most of my clothes from Blair when they have sales, but a lot of their stuff is not my style. Temu has wonderful boho stuff!
I have ordered many different items from Temu, and I have no complaints on anything I have ordered. I have ordered a variety of different items. They are better than Wish, and every order comes in a week no later. Love the free shipping also.
I ordered a strong grip mat from Temu and at first glance it looks the same as the Cricut brand. The first time I used painters tape to hold down faux leather, the tape pulled off the sticky from the mat and after only a few cuts it started to cut through the mat. I won’t be ordering mats again but I have had great success with several other crafting supplies!
That little paper cutter is the PERFECT size for going inside of a planner!! 😍
I am a customer of Temu, I ordered about $50 worth of clothing, 2 bucket hats, one says New York & the other is moon & star symbol, great quality, 2 pull over hoodies say PINK now this is what I didn't expect ones black & the other one like off white, the hoodies are 100 % polyester, no cotton involved at all it's soft but cheaply made, warm so I'll wear them, I'm actually ordering the rest of my order right now, keep you updated!
I've ordered a few times from Temu and haven't been disappointed. I've purchased fabric, resin supplies, kitchen items, sewing items (the same needles you purchased) and more. So far no surprises and everything is still in good shape-no breaks during use.
I was unsure of the fabric quality, so thank you!
The little waste collector I use for keeping my glue upside down so it doesn’t dry up
Oh thats a great idea! 👍
What a great idea!
I use mine to store my ear buds, so they don't fall behind my desk
That's exactly what I thought when I saw it.
I think it would be good for holding cups of water for painting so they don't spill.
I’ve ordered many items from Temu and been happy with all. You didn’t mention that it’s FREE SHIPPING which is everything.
I have bought many times from Temu. Read the descriptions to make sure you're getting what you expect as photos may be deceiving. Overall I have been very satisfied.
Thank you! I found your video & decided to watch. You actually reviewed some items I was wondering about. The globe trash piece I was so curious about. I've looked & read about it. I could NOT figured it out. Turned the pics every which way from Sunday! NOW I understand
Time we'll spent on your video, thanks!
I just heard about this company a week ago. I looked at prices & thought…too good to be true. Thanks for video.
I have ordered a few times from Temu. I have been very happy with my purchases and especially the prices and free shipping!
Dollar Tree now sells the same exact silicone vinyl Waste Collector for $1.25. I just saw them when I was shopping this evening. They felt very sturdy.
Yeah. I’d check the dollar tree plus store first.
I do live under a rock. In Kinnear, Wyoming watching you.
😊
I ordered a purse, wallet, lamp, makeup, hair clips, a thing for migraines and a few other things. Everything showed up on time. The prices were really good and the quality was awesome.
@Shannon Hughes
What was the "thing for migraines" and did it work?
My adult daughter gets them and she's laid low several days a month, so looking for any help in that area...
Thanks!
@@cheryldavis8776 hi. It's a blue plastic like thing that fits between the thumb and index finger. It helps some but not 100%. I've had terrible migraines for over 40 years. So I'm willing to try anything I can find. I hope it helps her.
I feel the company is pretty good and shipping is fair. Easy to order. I rate it a 10
The safety pins look very much like stitch markers used in crochet. And a lot cheaper too!
I have ordered twice from Temu. Very happy with what I received.
I work a lot with beads. The beads that I have ordered are beautiful, good quality, and exactly as described. I have also ordered jewelry, household goods, clothing, and numerous others items. Fast delivery. I have not been disappointed with anything from Temu that I have ordered. Yes the products are made in China, but until I can get similar products made in America at the same reasonable price. I will continue to order from them.
my only worry with temu is how ethical it is, cause those prices are a bit scary
I'm curious. Why would you think that low prices are unethical?
@@oldladyfarmer7211 I think they’re worried that the worries are heavily underpaid like Shein and some other places have been rumored to do
@@koalamarsc7452 Got it. Thanks for that. I always look for the lowest price but I try to buy American-made
as much as possible.
@@oldladyfarmer7211 Christians/Uygurs that are being persecuted in China is unethical, as well is collecting your data.
@@koalamarsc7452 'Heavily underpaid' is a euphemism for virtual human slavery.
I love TEMU I’ve ordered about 6 times & have not been disappointed in anything I’ve gotten at all
I’ve ordered twice from Temu. There have only been a few items that were disappointing quality. There have been many items that exceeded my expectations. I think that it’s definitely worth the risk of a few lesser quality items, given the low prices!
I have placed several orders with Temu. Easter shopped for my family of 20. Was able to get more for my money.
We love Temu and order way too much. We had to limit ourselves because we found we were spending too much on our hobbies. Quality has always been =rally good. We're very happy with Temu ❤
I ordered journaling supplies from Temu,stickers,papers ,floral trim and greenery twine. It came within 10 days of irdering and I was pleased with everything.
Love the way that you showed what you ordered and what you got. Thanks for sharing!
I have ordered from Temu several times and have been very pleased with my purchases. The only thing I don’t like about some things listed is that there’s no measurements. I try and stay away from those items. Great video and I would love to see how the Cricut blades do especially.
Glad you said this about measurements. I commented similarly on need for better distribution info.
I agree - they would sell more if they gave measurements (except for the miniatures which are already labeled as 1:12 ratio).
Temu is headquartered in Shanghai China. I am choosing to Defund China while they are choosing to attack America and our values.
I’ve been loving TEMU. The wood carving knives I got from there are excellent. I’ve also gotten inked stamp pads and stone beads that have been great.
I have been ordering from Temu for over a year and have not been dissatisfied with any of the stuff I have ordered including the clothes! I have received the $5 coupon several times because of not getting the order on time, but it was only a day late. They are true to their word. I LOVE Temu.
I've ordered about 5 times from Temu, and I love them. Make sure you read description. I bought a drain flower/hair catcher that sits across a sink drain, with a ball chain hanging down. Chain rusted apart within 2 months. I told them and they refunded my money within an hour! I had only got it, to keep things from falling down the drain. Still works for that.
I've ordered a lot of stuff from TEMU. Some jewelry, signage, sewing scissors, etc. The prices were great, the quality for what I paid for was very good and the free shipping just seals the deal. Fun stuff you got and I'll look into some of it. You've earned a subscriber as I have never seen your channel before and love crafting! 💚
LoL! I just discovered this channel as well and subscribed.
Yup, I also just discovered this channel & subbed.
Same here😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤
I've ordered silicone molds and was so incredibly happy with the quality!
Thanks I was actually going to ask about the molds.
Yay I just ordered them today
Just a heads up on the safety pins, they are great for using as a placeholder for crocheting or knitting.
Yes that's what I use them for, or attaching labels to things, I love them
I have never watched your channel before I just happened to stumble upon it today. I am obsessed with TEMU. I stumbled across TEMU in October 22. My first order was just a couple of items clothing and Christmas earrings for myself. Since then
I have spent so much money on this website 😩
The quality of the clothes is amazing. I have a 5 year old granddaughter that I have spent lots of money on for little cute dresses summer outfits and shoes.
I have found that if your orders are larger sometimes they do not make it to you on time.
The company has given me the $5 credit many have times which then I just turn around and order something that is more high-dollar than their normal things to see what they are like. I highly recommend this website for anyone that is on a tight budget.🎉
I’ve had several orders from Temu. Expecting one next week. No complaints so far. I’ve ordered clothes, jewelry, craft, shoes, artwork, etc.
I have placed several orders from Temu, everything from needle threaders, sewing shears which are very sharp, to embroidery scissors which work amazing thank you cards and stickers ( beware of sticker sizes they are a lot smaller than they appear. I can't complain about anything I've gotten. The cutting mats for cricut is a little more plastic though, overall I am a return customer.
I was actually very surprised with Temu! I make jewelry and craft so my first order was a small order of semi precious stone beads and some glass beads. I was very happy with the quality and price! I've already placed several more orders because the prices just can't be beat! I'd love to see a follow-up video using the blades and máts for the cricut!! Have a blessed day! 💕
Thanks for doing this video. It seemed like they appeared out of nowhere and were everywhere, so I was a little suspicious. Now that I've seen your video and read the comments, I feel OK giving them a try.
Yeah! What you said. I was suspicious of them due to the prices. An because they just came from no where to everywhere. So glad for this video..
Are you all crazy. . .this is the CCP, the inhumane, evil communist party that hates America & Americans. Why would you allow them to track you and add your data to their data bases? Why would give money to one of the most dangerous regimes in the world? Think forced organ donations. ...they have imprisoned many in reunification camps. . .they are one of the sources of the poison drugs coming from the Mexican border. Please wise up & cease supporting China.
Those safety pins make good stitch markers for knitting and crocheting. I use them for that purpose
Thanks for this video, I'm currently waiting on a order from temu right now, it's not expected until the 30th at the latest, but they sent me a 5 dollar credit anyway for my trouble, which the 30th is almost a week away, so I'm not totally sure why they sent me the credit, but I appreciate it, I'm waiting on homeschooling supplies, so this video was extremely helpful, thanks
I ordered a cutting Matt, who ever packaged mine folded it in half to get it in the bag. It had a Crease LOL unusable.. . it was the only damaged thing. Glad to see yours arrived in perfect condition! Everything else I ordered was just what I expected it to be!
I love everything that I've ordered from TEMU. I order craft supplies as well as other household things and haven't been disappointed. I bought a new car recently and wanted to 'bling' it up some, so I ordered many cute things from TEMU and all have been really good items. My pets also love TEMU. I don't think you will be sorry you ordered.
I have heard so many things about Teemu and most of the things I heard were great and shipping so quick! I actually never thought about looking through the site for crafting items and I'm a Crafter! Imagine that! Later this evening or tomorrow I am going to definitely go on to Temu to see if I can find some crafting supplies that thus far have been out of my budget range! Thank you for posting honey. Blessings from Gramma Gia in the Ozarks!
I have done the same thing!!! Bling tire valve tops, kleenex holder, sunglass holder and trash can. I love it!!!!
Those little safety pins are also good as stitch markers for working with crochet or knitting
We have been ordering from Temu for over a year. I would say to read the details, educate yourself and have fun. I order craft items, kitchen, bath, dog coats. We are happy. Plus if they are late on delivery you get a $5 credit automatically. I recommend the company to lots of people. Often they have "under a dollar sale" so things are cheap enough to have a bit of a spree.
The bulb safety pins are fantastic knitting markers as well and crochet markers because you can open them and remove them from the stitch crochet markers have to open
I love the TEMU site! I have ordered lots of things as I'm a therapist that normally works with children. I have gotten miniatures, craft supplies, etc. And I'm normally very pleased!
When an item you ordered (or you’re going to order) goes out of stock, if you click on the picture it brings you to the page and says it’s sold out BUT if you click on the picture on that page for details it will bring up the picture you originally saw. The weeder ball is now sold at dollar tree as well. Yes they give you a 5 dollar credit if order is not delivered in the time frame they say. I got mine a day late and got a 5 dollar credit.
There also a function offered for items that are out of stock. You can click the "notify me" button when it comes in stock.
@@2degucitas I like that idea. Unlike Amazon you wait months for something to get back in stock only later to find out it's never coming back in stock.
I order from Temu all the time, I haven't been disappointed yet.
I've ordered and been nothing but happy. I learned, from other similar stores, to pay attention to measurements and I read all the reviews with pics and videos. My order came in a week, on the first tentative delivery date they gave me and my 2 free items were good quality. The shipping was free also and I had a TON of beads, a mini humidifier and a car vac in the pkg. My shipping had to cost at least a 3rd of what I spent. I'm going to keep using them until I personally have an issue that changes my current position. 😊
I have put in multiple orders and except for the waiting time for delivery on the last 2 orders,they did come pretty quickly. I was very pleased by the items,and they met or exceeded my expectations. Hoodies,jewelery,ect.
I just placed two orders from Temu. I expect them to arrive this week. I can’t wait now that I saw this video, I’m more excited to see what arrives!
Not too many people seem to be disappointed with Temu thanks for sharing.
Everything you got looks pretty good, a follow up on them would be great!! Thank you for sharing!!! Hugs Liz..
That green rubber suction planter would be cute in a pet mouse habitat as a foraging treat toy
I've ordered from TEMU. LIke you said, came quickly, and I was not disappointed with the items. I bought stamps, dies, sewing supplies and all were just fine.
My experience with Temu has been “ you get what you pay for”. So if you don’t pay a lot, then you can’t expect a lot . My first experience wasn’t so good. I waited 6 months then gave them another chance.. my second experience was slightly better but like I said, you get what you pay for
Hi, I just wanted to say keep trying with small orders, maybe. I am 76 and wishvI had had Temu all my life - I could have saved thousands and I feel the quality os very good (better than the 99c store).
@@juliejohnson497 as I stated before, just don’t expect the quality you could get from other sites/stores. I’m satisfied with my second order for the price I paid. The first order was a disappointment. Have a blessed day!🥰💕
I price check items vs Amazon example massager $4.48 TEMU was $50 on Amazon for exact item... mini blender also cheaper on TEMU, same w knee braces.... I've saved even on baby outfits $18 on Amazon vs $5 on TEMU and the quality has not disappointed- love kitchen gadgets and TEMU has things you'd never think of that w my arthritis has made my life so much easier.... I fell hard down this rabbit hole
The more we purchase from these companies because we need to pay next to nothing for our junk, the more the people who make this,junk will be treated HORRIBLY. I know that doesn’t matter when you’re getting you’re cheap junk and it’s Asians, it’s no big deal, right?
@@debannas4567 Can you tell us why you were disappointed. In what way was the quality inferior? What item did you buy?
This was actually really useful information. I thought Temu was just another Wish and brushed it off
I did to.
Which is funny cuz i’ve ordered thru Wish several times & only been disappointed by the immense wait time. So if Temu is so significantly better?.. Guess i’m gonna give them a shot!
I haven't ordered from Wish in over a year. My go-to is Shein and Temu. Temu offers more crafting supplies, while I still use Shein for decor.
I think it is similar but better shipping? I know aliexpress is similar and they have offers, like buy £8 worth of stuff and get 15 day shipping
I've ordered several things from TEMU. My "reviews " would be similar to yours. Every time I get my package, it looks like it went through a lot, but they tape it securely. They tend to package things in a very insecure way, but I don't think I've had anything bent or broken when I receive the order. I also have learned to check carefully for dimensions, a few things I've ordered were much smaller or felt flimsier than I expected, but, like you, I hadn't paid enough attention so it's my fault if not what I expected.
I have purchased mostly kitchen supplies and cat related items (like cute paper clips that look like cats). Not disappointed in anything. As a matter of fact, I found kitchen supplies that made cooking and storage so much easier for a 77 yo shrinking (under 5' now)! And you can't beat the prices. Plus today, I got a text telling me that, due to the storms in our area, things are running slow so I have a $5 credit! Thank you. Plus, I got cards to pass out and gave one to my weekly caregiver, who had never of Temu either, and now she is hooked, too!
It’s helpful, as a person with disabilities, to have things delivered. I couldn’t do so at a higher price.
@@sciencenotstigma9534 Best thing that happened to me was Meijer finally accepted EBT for grocery delivery! I get everything delivered too. God bless you, dear.
I've bought/ordered a lot of different items. Great shipping. I was happy with all the items for the price except a pair of tweezers. You need to be sure your read in full and look at a couple reviews. I got quite a bit for jewelry making and different rock, crystal, prisms, etc.. All good purchases. Also small kitchen items. Great shoes and a few clothes. When I first ordered, my items missed the date by one day, they reimbursed me for the whole order. Now they give you a 5 dollar credit. Always good shipping.
The safety pins you showed are stitch markers for crochet and knit. I love mine! Now that I know I can find them on temu I'm going to order more. They're PERFECT when doing amigurumi.
I’ve ordered a few time and haven’t been disappointed yet. I do mostly paper crafts and I have fallen in love with their nail art gems, they are perfect bling for cards and 3D structures
I love the nail art bling and use them other crafts that I do. I love most of the craft items I have bought and the disappointments was my fault for not reading the sizes and such, but turned around and found other ways of using them. I put in a large order just yesterday and can't wait till it comes...lol. ❤
I’ve been wondering about Temu! Thanks for reviewing.
Temu is headquartered in Shanghai China. I am choosing to Defund China while they are choosing to attack America and our values.
I only discovered Temu 2 months ago, and now it's one of the only places I shop. I have compared prices with Amazon, and the prices cannot be beaten! The quality of everything I have purchased has been very good, I've been lucky so far. I have gotten 2 of my co-workers hooked as well!
I have ordered a lot from Temu. I have yet to be disappointed with anything I have purchased. I always read the reviews before adding an item to the cart. I saved a lot of money at Christmas time!
This is my first time watching something from Oak and Lamb and I am a subscriber now! Great review, I felt your review were more honest than some other Temu reviews I've watched. Like others I would love to see a follow up review testing the products. Going to jump into the oak and lamb rabbit hole now and binge watch your videos😊
I’ve also ordered the real leather purse and a faux leather bad. Love them both!
I've been ordering from TEMU for 4 to 6 months now and have been very pleased with what I've received. I order basically pet, kitchen, and beauty products. I keep my purchases to $5 or less per item and they definitely compared to any other dollar store item you're going to find.
I’ve ordered craft supplies, shoes and even a couple of tops. Love everything I got! No disappointment on anything so far.
Yes, I have bought lots of things from TEMU, I have never been desapointed . I used to buy things from Amazon and they are excitedly
the same, but more expensive.
Yes, sometimes the exact same items.
PLEASE do a follow-up video, I really want to see all these items in action and get your thoughts after using them.
Also, what was the name of that felt you said you usually use? Thanks!
Temu is headquartered in Shanghai China. I am choosing to Defund China while they are choosing to attack America and our values.
I’ve ordered 3 different times. Dies,stamps, 6x6 papers,projector light for teenagers room and all was good. Their good at keeping you posted on when the delivery is expected.😊
Have you tried the dies? How well do they cut?
Yes they cut great!!!
@@SB-wo8sp the dies cute great!!
This was super helpful and I’ve been holding back on ordering from them which is why I clicked on your video but I’m also a very new crafter so now I’m a new subscriber! 💖
Hi there!! I ordered from Temu and had a great experience. I ordered a spoon for melting wax for wax seals, a marble "coaster" for wax seals, and some never sharpen penciles. I think all told my order came to less than $20.00. It came quickly and everything was above expectations! The wax melting spoon is beautiful! It is a vintage style in brass, and it has a great weight to it when I hold it. The marble is the same- beautiful and functional. The pencils I was truly impressed with- I had never seen this kind before. They are really nice and very cheaply priced.
Thanks so much for this video!! =)
I recently heard about Temu and was excited to place an order on 3/15/23 . My order was due to arrive by 4/1 but they sent me an email stating due to high demand they are unable to ship at this time. They then sent me another email offering $5 off my next order plus if I wish I could cancel my order and try later. I will keep my order and will till everything comes in. My order is all craft items and only totals around $50. Thank you for showing us the items you received.
I absolutely love Temu, I order from them quite often
Those little “safety pins” are ones I use in knitting projects. Hope this helps! Thanks for all the info.
I love the practical, functional, and commonly used items you all selected! Thank you! 😊
I’m for buying American made also. Our country is having a hard enough time so want to help out my fellow Americans.
Thank you, you did a great job explaining everything. Without taking a long time.
