I bought a bunch of items because they were practically free. Items came and no problem. Next time I order and buy, stuff came all wrong. You gotta be some kind of special to have a racket that sends stuff right on first orders and then send garbage afterwards. You make millions before the public figures it all out. Pics below show what I ordered and what I got. Straight garbage. F these guys. Don't bother ordering because it is quite the scam.

I had about four different orders that I was happy with (epecially electronics and kitchen stufff), before getting some items that I needed to return. I found that their return process was wonderful. As soon as I delivered the return shipment to the carrier, I received my refund (which I chose to be Temu credit). Some items seem to be cheap copies of more expensive originals—-seem smaller, thinner, and not as robust, but the price point is so low it was still worthwhile. I feel that they are trying really hard to get a happy customer base in order to compete with sites like Amazon, and they are doing a good job. Beware though, that often the price given is not for what is pictured, but for a different quantity or colour, so be sure to check the order. I think in future, prices will creep up and other perks (like free shipping and returns) will decrease. My original orders didn't even charge tax, but now they do. I enjoy shopping this site because they have a many items that are new and different from any other sites I've seen (eg. Silicone toe covers). Yes, some things are cheaply made, but with free returns, it seems that the makers of these items won't be in business long. You can get great deals on this site, but buyer beware.

Tip for consumers:
Just check that you are getting what you ordered rather than depending on the photo. The price often is for just certain items, colours, etc. shown on the photo.

Products used:
Computer and phone accessories, kitchenware, some clothing, some tools, some shoes, some camping/beach supplies.

After my 10 y/o son begged me to buy Temu, he and I spent an hour selecting and purchasing about 15 items. Then the fun began. Chase "fraud protection" declined the charge because Temu was a "new merchant" and I promptly texted Chase the charge was valid which Chase acknowledged. Temu then began sending me emails with instructions for "verifying" that I was the person authorized to use the Chase card. Each time I followed Temu's instructions and verified. Yet, further Temu emails followed. Finally, and against my better judgment, I started a chat on Temu's website. After about an hour of unresponsive "chatting" the chat rep. Finally comprehended that all Temu had to do -- and should automatically have done, was resubmit the charge. The rep. Thanked me and apologized stating "we are improving". I responded, how can Temu even hope to take a run at Amazon, if right out of the gate, it lacked knowledge how to handle today's all too common credit card "fraud protection" declines, especially when charges are submitted by a new online merchant? After assuring me my issue was being given "priority" and that Temu would resubmit the charge without further waste of my time, last night I received yet another nonsensical and nonresponsive email from Temu advising: "we reviewed the information you submitted but it was insufficient to remove the hold on your order. You were not charged for this order. Please submit a document below to verify that you were authorized to use the payment method used on this order." I replied Temu could kiss my $#*! and keep its cheap junk.

Tip for consumers:
That Temu lacks even a clue how to be an online retailer

Products used:
Never received anything but aggravation and lost hours. See review.

I'm so disappointed that Temu doubled their minimum order from $10 to $20. I was ready to check out and noticed the increase. Unfortunately, many items I want are out of stock and when they do come back, other items in my cart are out of stock. I'm buying some cheap fake costume jewelry, so getting to $20 isn't easy. With the economy tanking, and a possible recession looming, this isn't the time for increases. I was enjoying being able to buy a few things and treat myself without having to spend too much - I'm retired and on SS. But now I'm loading up my cart with stuff I really don't want trying to reach $20 and that's just crazy! Temu needs to lower their minimum order back down or they will likely suffer from many like me that don't want to spend more and can't find $20 worth of items they need.

Of course I'm also concerned about the security issues with the app; the possible child labor issues and overworking ppl to death, literally. And the affect this could have on the US manufacturing and labor market, which are declining at this time. Supporting the US is very important to me; yet the prices on Temu are enticing.

I have had a very bad experience with customer service one time, but besides that all my orders have arrived as expected on time - minus one and that was the fault of the USPS. The quality of items has been nice - esp for the price, and they've readily refunded a few items that arrived broken.

I hope they will lower their minimum back to $10 per order. If not, I probably won't be shopping on Temu much more.

I asked to see where all the things were that I had clicked on to process and five minutes later the representative still had not answered my question.

Tip for consumers:
Order everything at once. Don't order one thing and then spend another hour shopping the site like I did because all those things I put in my cart have not yet processed. And there is no Check Out button, so I don't know when the order will process. Customer service chat was useless. He never responded to my question. One rep said he'd have to get me another rep, and then I asked that rep the same question and five minutes later he never responded.

Products used:
I haven't gotten them yet. I ordered nearly $100 worth of goods, but it takes hours to process. So I don't know what all Temu will even send me.

My sister introduced me to them a couple of months after they first came out. At first, I was worried because it looked similar to Shein and I had heard bad things about their company. I tried to find reviews online and unboxing videos on YouTube to make sure my items would actually come if I placed an order. I decided to go for it and they have always given me what I purchase. Some items aren't the best quality, it just depends on what you buy. The coloring is also not always exact so I try to look at the customer images under the review sections. Overall, I've been happy with my purchases. They actually gave me an 80-dollar refund for an order I received! The website said my order was never delivered so they gave me a refund but it was delivered. I told them about this and they said to keep the money. They have a chat section where you can immediately talk to someone and the customer service is good. A couple of times I've received an order a couple of days late (but I've made many, many orders) and they have given me 5 dollars every time it comes late. Also, I only need 10 dollars worth of items to make an order and get free shipping. My sister's minimum spending amount is 15 but I think it's because she got an update. I think they recently raised the price.

Most of the clothing I ordered was perfectly fine. Fit great and was made out of great material. The rest was still good quality material but it did not fit. My oldest daughter is 2 and wears a 2t. I purchased a 3-4y and they were still too small. I only got a 3-4y because the size guide said that would fit for her height. Obviously not. And reviews on the website for those items said they fit great. Odd. My younger daughter is 8 months old and wears a 9month. Most of hers fit but a couple were too small as well. I purchased 6-9 month. A lot of the toys I picked out look a lot bigger in the pictures provided. A couple look like they're pretty large, but when they showed up I could hold them in the palm of my hand. And yet some looked exactly like what was advertised. I did order a car radio though, and that is perfectly fine. I do have to exchange it though because I bought the wrong size. The one thing I'm irritated about though is how long it takes for delivery and the fact that after your first return you have to pay for shipping. The items are pretty cheap. But they come from China so I would end up paying more for the shipping than I would the item itself. This is some wacky company and I honestly think it's a gamble. You're either going to be overly satisfied or extremely angry about your purchase. I won't be ordering from them again. I don't have the time or the money to be wasting on this.

Tip for consumers:
Definitely read item reviews. They’re not always right but they definitely help at least a little.

I have used them 3 times now. And after the first time and the last time, my credit card number was stolen. So I won't be using them anymore, just because of the hassle of it all..

I have been trying with no success to reach someone, anyone, with Temu customer support. They show my order as delivered but it was never received. The order was shipped but there was an issue with the post office losing it or delivering to the wrong address. I followed all of their suggested recommendations of what to do if an order is not received and I'm trying to get a reshipment. On the Temu app I entered the required info for reshipment and whenever I hit submit it pops up with " please contact customer support. I've tried numerous times to contact them thru the live support and it's nothing but a frustrating waste of time. After being # 586 in line and waiting over an hour each time when I got to the 160's in line it says they have disconnected from the chat session and to recontact them if I still need help. Now when I try to contact them thru their live chat option it says there's no connection and try again later. I've tried calling every customer service number they have listed. They're ALL disconnected. Take a look through the responses from Temu to other reviews on this site. Every phone number they have listed is disconnected. Sent emails with no reply or acknowledgement from them.There's no way to contact anyone.
