Why Is This?

I really want to know why it is that Temu has such cute stuff but has such a bad reputation for bad quality. Why oh why? I wanted to get my daughter some summer pants. Temu has some really cute shorts but I don't trust them. She goes out into the world and needs some more cute outfits.

Based on the fact that Temu is from China, they have low quality items. And their return or cancellation process is nearly impossible.

Temu is cheep because like wish, it's a drop shipping company. Everything is imported or made low quality to cut costs. They also sell a lot of cheep knock off products, in an effort to justify priceses.

I have been happy with the clothes I have bought. Just look at the size chart as some seem off in sizing. And look at reviews.

I have purchased pillows from that site in the past and so far so good with the pillows coming in good quality.

They might be cute clothes, but if they are as toxic and full of chemicals as tests have proven them to be, who would want them? Someone said, oh, you can wash the chemicals out. This is not always true. In the end, it's your choice.

Temu has an ok reputation here. You know the quality of something cheap isn't going to be brand name quality but from what I have heard the clothing is ok.
