The problem might be that many other sites have some bad sellers selling shoddy and/or counterfeit goods (the almost unbelievable number of fake USB flash drives on Amazon for example), the bad sellers on Temu seem to be the majority.

Admittedly, my only experience with Temu was a couple of years back when one acquaintance of mine purchased a rice cooker advertised with an image of a Cuchen 3 cup IH rice cooker. Shall we say, that when it arrived, it did not look quite like what they expected. The lock ring around the cover release button would not turn, it did not use induction heating, the clock on the front of the unit was missing, etc. OTOH, it did have a Cuchen sticker on the top.

They managed to get a refund but it required them to jump through hoops during which the vendor disappeared.

I would agree that for no name items, they are a good choice. OTOH, for anything moderately expensive and/or brand name, definitely caveat emptor.
