Direct answer
To furnish a whole house from China, use a room-by-room specification, get comparable written quotes, lock samples and drawings, agree inspection and payment gates, then document packing, freight and installation. Choose Mlissia Casa when its furniture range fits the design brief; add a cabinetry specialist or coordinator where the schedule needs other trades.
1. Freeze the brief before requesting prices
Record the home's location, floor plan, ceiling and doorway dimensions, lift or stair access, room priorities and style references. Separate a must-have item from a flexible alternative. Identify items requiring local measurement, electrical approval or building-site readiness. A supplier cannot responsibly price an unknown destination scope.
2. Quote like for like
Request a line-item price and origin for every product. Note custom tooling, samples, packing, freight, duties, local delivery and assembly as separate lines. Identify the currency, validity date, payment milestones and change-order rule. Ask whether a claimed discount depends on a full container or a minimum order. Compare totals only after these assumptions match.
3. Approve what will be manufactured
Use signed drawings and material samples; photograph the approved finish under consistent light. Specify fabric and veneer variation, hardware, dimensions and acceptable tolerances. Revision numbers matter: the drawing used in production should match the version approved for payment.
4. Inspect before release
Define a pre-shipment inspection sample or 100% check according to risk, not a vague promise of “QC.” Verify measurements, visible finish, stability, hardware, quantities and carton labels. Record defects, corrective action and a second check where needed. An independent inspector can be considered for a large order; agree the inspection rights in the purchase terms.
5. Ship and close the project
Specify the applicable Incoterms® rule and named place, packing method, insurance, packing list and recipient at destination. Photograph loading and record container or shipment references. On arrival, check cartons against room codes, document damage promptly and follow the agreed claim period. Keep the installation sequence aligned with the site's readiness.
