DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM TEMU EVER!!!!! 

It's cheap knock-off sub-par crap. Check out the vids on YouTube.

Also, the Temu app is a major security risk for personal info.

I clicked the link and 10 minutes later I'm thiiiiiiiis close to buying a hot dog pocket knife and 90" tapestry of jesus playing basketball against the devil

I bought a climbing partner off of Temu and the guy just fell apart after just 2 pitches. Not recommended.

A price point of 40 bucks isn't even too ridiculous. Same price as several beginner climbing shoe models that Decathlon sells in Europe.

Why is Temu controversial?

Temu was accused by the US government of potential data risks after its sister site, e-commerce platform Pinduoduo, was suspended by Google for containing malware. However, according to CNBC, analysts say Temu is less of a threat, and the risks associated with Pinduoduo were targeted at Chinese users. 

Additionally, the US House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party published a report that states Temu does not take the necessary steps to ensure the products on the site comply with the Uyghur Forced Labor Act.

The same report asserts that Temu exploits a US commerce loophole that allows the company to avoid paying tariffs and complying with US commerce laws and regulations.

     

Are the products on Temu good quality?

Temu is not accredited by the Better Business Bureau (BBB) and has an average rating of two-and-a-half out of five stars. Many recent complaints about Temu on the BBB website say that items never arrived or, if they did, took weeks or even months to arrive.
