I ordered a bunch of clothes for school and some gifts for my brother and aunt, and i've been waiting since the 17th. I know shipping is around 7-15 days, but it hasn't even been shipped yet and the delivery date was supposed to be between today (february 28) and march 4. I can't imagine it'll be here before march and i don't really want any money or credit back, just the stuff i ordered because it meant a lot to me. I loved the experience with this app and the shopping spree, but i'm a little irked that costumer service won't help me at least figure out where it is. I have no tracking information except for that it's "preparing to ship", and it's said that for several days now. Hoping something changes soon :(

Its hard when your kids are super picky about what they eat but getting them these lunchboxes was a great idea without spending crazy money and you know how fast kids change their mind. Kids love the blue color so far, comes with a handle. I don't know if its because the presentation is better or what, but they've been more excited eating their lunches at school.

Temu has some good deals but it's a scam site.
August 7, 2023

Temu does have cheap stuff and good prices but they phish for information about your friends, fb contacts and phone contacts promising free gifts. After you provide the information you get nothing. Their customer service sucks and be very careful to read the full description of the item your buying. Pictures showing the items often do not match what you're actually getting. For example they'll advertise bouncy seat for kids, you buy them and its just the outside fabric, the stuffing isnt included. Steer clear of this site!

Really recommended
October 16, 2023

I have only had positive experiences with Temu so far. I've probably ordered there 8 times already. I have always been satisfied so far! You should be aware that if you buy Bluetooth headphones for 3 euros, you cannot expect the quality as with items from A... etc etc.
Complaints have gone well so far. Always got my money back straight away and was often allowed to keep the goods.! The most important thing is, when I finally entered the codes ******* and ******* in the search bar, I was really surprised. I not only received credit, but also great rewards:)

Many Bargains
December 15, 2022

I like Temu so far has been good experience doing almost all my holiday shopping on their app store. I have found excellent bargains for items that cost twice as much at other online retailers. Extensive variety of household, beauty, clothing, accessories, office, and decor items. Shipping delivery and customer service has been all around excellent as well. Watch the sizing of clothing as it can be smaller than typical USA sizes.

Do not purchase from Temu. It is a Chinese company using 31 St. James Avenue Suite 355, Boston, MA as their USA address. Phone *******368. All inquiries are referred to www.temu.com/support-center.html. The quality of the products is extremely cheap. Support center inquiry requesting a return label is "we are working on it" and you will receive a return label within 48 hrs. You call 48 hours later and again told the same. After several contacts with the company, I am filing a complaint with MA's Attorney General's office and disputing the charges with my credit card company.

I've been buying stuff on Temu for a few months now and im still amazed at how much you get for your money. Products are already crazy cheap, but Temu also offers free shipping on all orders, a lot of sales and discounts that cut down prices even more and amazing aftersale services in case you find some issues with your product. Temu is reliable and legitimate and am super glad that i stumbled upon it

I've ordered a couple of items from TEMU. They took 10 or 11 days to arrive, which I consider very fast when ordering from China. The items were exactly as described in their postings. I have no complaints.

There have been many items I've seen on FaceBook and Amazon, learned not to trust many of them because of quality and price issues. However when I see something I do like there I check with Temu to see what they charge for the same item and then read their reviews. I've always saved at-lease 50% from FaceBook offers. The only drawback is sometimes orders take a little longer to arrive then Amazon (however I think Amazon is evil and try to avoid whenever possible.)

I'm impressed!
February 20, 2023

I'm a savvy senior with plenty of online purchasing experience. At first, I was cautious with TEMU, I was first impressed with their website, well executed and description of items, options to pay are numerous including PayPal. I firstly bought 4 or 5 small items on 1 order to check their shipping. TEMU surprised me by being attentive to my order all thru the shipping process via email and texts, even included a USPS tracking number. Order arrived in a timely manner and products were good quality for what they were. I have since made 3 more separate orders, all were satisfactory all around. No complaints from me. I will surely order again in the future without worry.

Great online outlet
August 14, 2023

Great online market place, we have placed 6 orders so far in our house and happy with everything received - all at great prices & good quality.

Loads of money off each time (that's why we've placed multiple orders).

Download the app and search in the search bar for product "*******", that's how I'm getting free products without even placing an order.

If the prices decrease on a product Temu will give you the difference back as well as a coupon, they love giving away money!

I just received my first order from Temu and you definitely get what you pay for. Their products are cheaply made and some not as pictured. I received oven covers and they are way too big. I have to cut them after I do so they do not fit and look terrible. I received a flashlight super small. I received a shaver, outdoor camera and yet to try it but shaver has a very small blade. The other 2 gadgets are just small and will be fine. Would I ever place another order probably not.

Temu seems to offer good price with a high ratio of defective product. Out of the total 13 items we ordered, 3 of them were defective, that is almost a 25% defect rate. Return process is relatively easy but we've used Temu credit option only so far. Not sure how long it takes if we request refund to the original payment method.

Our other big concern with this website is their pop-up promotions which are pure scams. We've got "buy $30 get $10 coupon", and "buy $60 get $20 coupon" offers. After we receive the code and try to redeem it with our next purchase, it says "you have to buy $30 to use this coupon code", which means the $10 or the $20 are not true coupons at all. If you buy again today, you will be prompted the same messages to induce you to add more items to the shopping cart. Be careful with this site!

Decent gloves
April 14, 2023

Never really expected a lot from cleaning gloves as long as they managed to protect my skin so I don't really have anything to say about these bc they're pretty effective I guess. They don't really fit perfectly on my hands but that's to be expected with a lot of cleaning gloves. I do like the color tho :)

Temu is a host site for multiple sellers. Most of the products are good quality. Watch for conflicting photos in a listing, note stated sizes (or lack of sizes), headlines sometimes fail to indicate that a choice needs to be selected (check for photo icons that specify size, color, and price differences when you click on them), multiple sellers means different pricing on same/similar items. Delivery time depends on what you buy - your order is given a delivery window. Temu will automatically issue a $5 account credit for late delivery. If items are damaged (take photos) or missing (they will check with the warehouse), go to your orders and use the return/refund button to receive a refund or account credit (with which I have had positive experiences). I have purchased many quality items at great prices, just remember to shop smart!

I was just giving it a try at first, but they have tons of interesting products at a much lower price than the big online retailer here. Many items were so cheap that they weren't even sold here, such as stick-on hooks for less than $2 that I found lots of use for, galoshes for less than $5, and brow shaper kits for $1.34, and pressed on Fake Nails for $.98. Shipment arrives quickly considering that they're from Asia There are issues with most of the dresses I purchased- be it the material or the sizing. Thus the 4 instead of 5 stars, but they were quick to approve my returns with free shipping and issued refunds, I placed 4 orders thus far and am happy with most of my purchases I highly recommend giving them a try; I'm glad I did.

Still Haven't received my Order
April 24, 2023

Places order on 3/11 with promise of delivery by 3/25. Still no order. They actually attempted deliver on 3/23 but couldn't gain access to the building so rather than these morons calling to say they were there they left. Am ordering something I need before Wednesday and no one has responded. Someone named Naomi sent 1 email, and since then have not responded, even tho I have attempted numerous times to reach out to get and answer or redelivery and tell them to call when they get here. Right now I am pissed off because they did a piss poor delivery job, not even an attempt to contact the purchaser. But they have 3 days to get it here before I really blast them. Depends on service from here whether the next review is a step up or blast...their choice

Temu orders
June 10, 2023

I love some of the shipments that I have received from your company. Most are ok but however this is the 3 shipment that laser ship claims driver didn't have correct address. Untrue they have delivered 2 times before no problem I bought items for a birthday today i would think you should send me a free gift certificate for the 2 orders not here. I had to buy my friend and my mom other gifts from Walmart that I could not afford. I would appreciate a call or email on how you plan on correcting this. I shall NOT order and will tell my friends who signed up not to order again unfortunately. Thank you Darleen Zradi

It is so much fun to scroll through all the stuff and pick out things you like, and when you look at the cart it's still under $100. Great selection and great prices. However, they use a shipping service that uses UPS for the first part, so you get a notice your package is on the way and speeding to you. But UPS then drops your package at a local post office for the final delivery. This results in a delay of up to three weeks, or the rest of your natural life. Have you ever waited in line at a post office? This is the most incompetent organization on earth! PS I was going to add a picture of my purchase, but I am still waiting.
