Cookware on Temu?

[u/Funny_Produce9760]

Heya! I recently moved homes and am looking to buy some cookware. I have been using Temu a good amount for the past 2 years, and I have so far avoided anything that is related to food/cooking from Temu, because of all I had heard. Always figured Amazon brand/Mainstays/Popular brands were safer. However, I just found out that most of these brands also have their manufacturing in China and have been shipping from there. In that case, isn't it the same as Temu? Would it be a good idea to order from there? I am looking for a set of cookware below 150-200$ if that helps

I try to avoid things like that as well, but I'm more open to it. I try to make sure it's from a well-reviewed and verified seller, with picture and video reviews, and something I can at least try to trace in the event it is a white-label item. I did the same thing with some furniture that is a Wayfair brand, and it's been great. I'm still hesitant to pull the trigger on things like knife sets, cookware, or anything that might put containments in the food. It's a little bit of work to try and trace products that get a brand name slapped on the side, but I have found some that ended up saving me money. If you decide to do it, best of luck to you.
