The Zhang Family — $14,200 Saved Furnishing a New Bellevue Home
Michael & Linda Zhang
Bellevue, WAOctober 2025
A young couple furnished their entire 3-bedroom home with Italian-style marble furniture, a custom walnut dining set, and bedroom suites — all sourced from Foshan and Dongguan factories at a fraction of US retail.
🔴 The Challenge
Michael and Linda had just purchased a 2,200 sq ft home in Bellevue's Crossroads neighborhood. They wanted a cohesive Italian modern aesthetic — marble dining table, leather sofa, walnut bedroom sets — but local retailers quoted over $38,000 for everything. As first-generation immigrants from Guangdong, they knew Chinese factories could produce identical quality for far less, but didn't know how to navigate sourcing, quality control, or international shipping.
Our Solution
We assigned a bilingual account manager who spoke both Mandarin and English. Over 3 weeks, we sourced from 4 verified factories across Foshan (marble) and Dongguan (solid wood + upholstery). We conducted video inspections of every piece before packing, arranged professional crating with moisture-barrier film for ocean transit, and consolidated everything into a single 40HC container. Customs clearance, last-mile trucking, and indoor placement were all handled by our Seattle team.

What Was Sourced
- Marble dining table (240cm) + 8 chairs — $4,200 (vs $12,000 at RH)
- Italian leather sectional sofa — $3,800 (vs $8,500 at West Elm)
- King bedroom suite (bed, 2 nightstands, dresser) — $2,900 (vs $7,200)
- Queen bedroom suite — $2,200 (vs $5,400)
- Custom walnut TV console (200cm) — $1,100 (vs $3,200)
- Shipping, customs, delivery — $4,600
- Zero damage — all 22 pieces arrived in perfect condition
“We saved over $14,000 and got better quality than what we saw at Restoration Hardware. The marble table is absolutely stunning — our friends can't believe we got it for under $5,000. Having a Mandarin-speaking account manager made everything effortless. We've already referred three families to Doge Consulting.”
Emerald City Bakery — Commercial Kitchen Equipment at 52% Off
Sarah & James Park
Capitol Hill, Seattle, WAJanuary 2026
A husband-and-wife team opening their first bakery sourced commercial ovens, refrigeration, and stainless steel prep tables from Guangzhou manufacturers — saving over $31,000 compared to US restaurant supply dealers.
🔴 The Challenge
Sarah and James were opening Emerald City Bakery on Capitol Hill. Restaurant supply dealers quoted $60,000+ for their equipment list: two commercial convection ovens, a walk-in cooler compressor, a 3-door reach-in freezer, stainless steel prep tables, and a dough sheeter. As first-time business owners, this cost threatened to exhaust their SBA loan before opening day.
Our Solution
We identified 3 Guangzhou manufacturers specializing in commercial food equipment that meet US NSF/UL certification standards. We arranged factory video tours so the Parks could see production quality firsthand. Each piece was tested, photographed, and certified before shipping. We coordinated a 2-unit LCL shipment with proper ventilation for the electronic components, handled FDA import registration for food-contact equipment, and arranged delivery to their Capitol Hill location with forklift unloading.

- Shipping, customs, FDA registration — $7,100
- All units passed city health inspection on first visit
“Without Doge Consulting, we wouldn't have been able to open on budget. They found us factory-certified equipment that's identical to what US dealers sell at double the price. The ovens are workhorses — 14 months in and zero issues. We've recommended them to every restaurant owner we know.”
CloudSync Labs — 40-Person Office Furnished for $18,000
Ryan Okonkwo, CEO
South Lake Union, Seattle, WAAugust 2025
A growing tech startup furnished their entire 40-person office — ergonomic chairs, motorized standing desks, and conference room furniture — at less than half the cost of Herman Miller/Steelcase alternatives.
🔴 The Challenge
CloudSync Labs was scaling from 15 to 40 employees and needed to furnish a new 4,500 sq ft office in South Lake Union. Commercial office furniture quotes came in at $42,000-$55,000 from traditional vendors (Herman Miller Aeron chairs alone are $1,400 each). As a Series A startup, they needed to be capital-efficient without compromising on ergonomics for their engineering team.
Our Solution
We sourced from two Foshan office furniture manufacturers with ISO 9001 certification. We provided samples of 3 different ergonomic chair models for the team to test for 2 weeks before bulk ordering. We arranged a single 40HC container with 40 chairs, 40 motorized standing desks, conference table, and lounge furniture. Each desk was labeled by employee name for easy setup. Our Seattle team handled delivery and assembly over one weekend.

- Lounge area: 2 sofas + coffee table — $1,800 (vs $6,000)
- Shipping, customs, delivery + weekend assembly — $2,600
- 12-month warranty on all items, 3 replacements fulfilled free of charge
“Our engineers sit in these chairs 10 hours a day and love them. The standing desks are smooth, quiet, and have programmable height presets — same features as $800 Uplift desks for $180 each. The math was a no-brainer. We've already ordered 20 more for our expansion.”
