China is an important sourcing destination for furniture buyers looking for a wide range of upholstered seating products. For importers, wholesalers, and furniture brands, working with a suitable manufacturer can provide access to different product designs and customization options.
However, selecting a product and placing an order are only the first steps. Before recliner chairs leave the factory, buyers need to confirm that the order specifications, product configuration, packaging, and shipping arrangements are consistent with the approved requirements. A clear pre-shipment checklist can help reduce misunderstandings between the buyer and manufacturer.
1 Confirm the Exact Product Model
The first step is to make sure that the product being prepared for shipment is the same model approved during the quotation and sample process. Before shipment, buyers should confirm:
- ✓ Product model number
- ✓ Product photographs or approved reference
- ✓ Manual or power configuration
- ✓ Upholstery material
- ✓ Color and finish
- ✓ Overall dimensions
- ✓ Required accessories
- ✓ Special customization details
Buyers can review the available options in JKY’s Recliner Chair collection.
