DH & I have been discussing this for weeks. Are they legit? Or is it another "Wish" situation.
Does anybody have experience buying from them?

No but they've been popping up continuously on my FB feed. I haven't seen anything I really want enough to download an app to buy, but if I do I'll let you know.
I prefer AliExpress for my Made in China needs 😁 Wish was always just "off".

I keep seeing cute things come up in my feed and in YouTube hauls but I’m too scared to take the plunge!

I'll let you know in about a week. I ordered some various things. I think they will be in end of next week or mid-week the next.

I've been getting bombarded by ads for them and have been wondering the same. Seems awfully sketchy.

How long did it take before the stuff you ordered shipped out? it shipped almost immediately. I should get stuff on the 15th. And then my second order should be here by the 25th. I ordered the 5th and 7th of February.

I am curious too. I’ve seen some comments from people saying they never got their stuff.

YES! Temu is Ligit. I just placed my 8th order. I have loved everything I have gotten and the prices are unbelievable. I have gotten my husband and many friends hooked on ordering from them.

They just had a big Super Bowl ad. Which is what prompted the post.

I ordered twice from them last month, after being inundated with their ads on FB. I used PayPal and each time I ordered some washi tape and an assortment of stickers for my planner. Cheaper than Amazon, both orders came fairly quickly (maybe a week or so) and I was very happy with what I received. I’d order again, even if it just was crafty stuff.

I've ordered from them. I'm supposed to get my second order today. Their shipping is much faster than Ali Express.

My sister ordered some small items from them and they looked fine. Apparently it came from Ontario, Canada and she said it came fairly quickly. I was hesitant to order from them, but may try a few items. I mean I don’t think you want to get anything that you want to last a long time lol but for small items I think it would work.

I've ordered from them and was very happy with what I received. Just make sure you read all the fine print about sizes of things.

It was all I was seeing in TikTok, so I made an effort to get that out of my algorithm.
I am trying to make a conscious effort to not buy crap I don't need. I have too much junk and clutter and it does not make me happy. When I see them opening the boxes of stuff from TEMU, it is stuff I would probably order, then it would just clutter up my house. Cheap and crap I do not need.

I ordered the pen/pencil organizer and some scratch offs for Chinese New Year from them. Both came within two weeks, I think and DG saw my organizer and had me order another one for himself. So far, no problem with them

I have. Things have been fine. Seems they have 'warehouses' around and about. One in NJ, something came from Delaware, another NY. Shipping is very fast.

YES! Temu is Ligit. I just placed my 8th order. I have loved everything I have gotten and the prices are unbelievable. I have gotten my husband and many friends hooked on ordering from them. The bold is mine here. I do not wish to start controversy, but I encourage you to please pause a moment. Please think about how the prices can be so unbelievable. These fast fashion/fast goods companies that flood social media outlets churn through workers (mostly all young and female) in horrible working conditions in developing countries, while destroying the environment with toxic pollutants, dangerous effluents, and mountains of trash. You might not be paying the price for these things, but someone else and somewhere else certainly is. "The True Cost" is a documentary I show my students in my environmental science and sustainability classes every semester. I highly recommend it so that you can understand what you are supporting when you purchase from companies like this.

mom2jnk you are correct, however the same products are being sold for higher prices in other sites, often extremely higher prices. I just spent well over $100 from Joann.com, for storage containers from a company in Georgia ... I have no clue where they were made and they were not cheap, by still at a heavy discount. I spent no where near that at Temu. So I bought a few cheap things for play.. Check Target, Walmart, Dollar Tree, 5 Below and so many other stores... Half of more of what we buy is made in China and/or elsewhere!!

What are some good things to order? First I’m hearing about this site! Not so great garbage bags. I need 2 gallon bags thanks to the no plastic bags from stores rules. They are ok but... Everything else has been good. The Trumpers will be pissed... His challenge coin is selling for under a dollar. I got a WTC one to check them out. It is very nice. You know those butter knives the are advertising with the holes in them, $13 on Amazon, a dollar or two at Temu... The bestest thing for me has been a 'mold'/cutter thing to make pastries,. Apple shape, will cut pastry or dough in shape of apple including the seeds. Flip it and put the pastry on the inside add filler crimp and you have a filled pastry. Same idea as making perogies or ravioli.. which you could make also I think.. A friend suggested using it to cut sugar cookies etc..

And here is my first order from them. I ordered on Feb 5 and got them today. I received 2 packages as they kept the soaps and hand warmer separate. So this order contains a shampoo bar, hand warmer, soap sheets, a large microfiber towel, a package of S hooks and some towel clips. I am hoping the towel clips will work on my oven door to keep my drying towels ON the bar.

I was curious about them too and this thread got me to place a small $22 order for like 12 things lol.
I got a appliance cord wrapper, some long wooden spoons for stirring. I'm hoping they are decent quality wood like teak or bamboo. If so, that's an crazy low price!
Oh and a cute little wall decal sticker of a little mouse in a hole reading a book. I'm going to put it on the wall by DD's bookcase in her room and see how long it takes for her to notice it lol.
