How it spread

Trace the origin

In September 2026 OMHU released TEDY, a limited dupe of its own TEDDY sofa, on Temu, Etsy and dupe.com from September 5. Lookalike creators and billboards promoted it, and OMHU says all 100 sold out in 10 minutes. A New York lookalike contest followed later that month.
