I’m going to try a small(ish) purchase first: an infrared sauna. I expect it’ll show up flat packed and I’ll have to assemble it, which is fine. I’ve already placed an inquiry and they are designing a quote, but my questions are: Does the client usually arrange the port-to-home part of the shipment or does the seller handle that? (The seller does say on their FAQ that they ship to port or to front-door.) And has it been your experience that assembly instructions are friendly? 😅

My experience is that everything is made in China, the instructions are all in Chinese, and the sellers are not very helpful in English. However, it’s generally the same product that you would buy from a US seller, under a different brand name or different packaging.
You will be able to find instructions in a language you understand online.
It generally takes about three weeks to a month to arrive although sometimes sooner.
On another note, you can combine cash back from satsback.com and Lolli, so that’s about 7% cashback, in addition to whatever credit card to use.
