> Reddit threads are full of horror stories
Reddit is full of horror stories about everything. Mostly because it gets eyeballs. I’m open—almost receptive—to the claim that Temu jewellery contains significant quantities of toxic materials. But we should hold ourselves to a higher standard than Reddit comments.
I haven't seen the Reddit posts. But I've seen the same in Articles in the Norwegian press, where they bought a bunch of random Temu stuff and sent it for safety testing. The result where not great and the results for the jewelry was really scary.
Anything that has skin contact like rings, clothing, toys, etc. I wouldn't but form Temu/AliExpress. That's where I draw the line.
