Finally its time to share the cost of buying furniture from Taobao! Taobao is definitely the way to go if you want to save money on furniture! Not only its cheap, most of their items are of good quality and require minimal efforts to assemble! 
This bedside table only cost us $57.93! This was a steal because its super light weight and so easy to relocate to any part of the house if required. The quality of the tabletop is topnotch and even scratch resistance. We do not even need to assemble the bedside table as it was shipped as whole. 
One of our best haul from Taobao is this chair. The color of the chair matches the dining table perfectly. One thing I love about this chair is how easy it is to clean it. Even if you spill liquid on it, just take wet towel to wipe and its good as new! No handyman required as it is fully assembled upon shipping. 
We brought this 1.8m long travertine table that comes with 4 chairs. The total cost for this set is only $450. This is definitely a good buy as the quality of the table is excellent. There are literally no scratches and the table legs have topcoat for extra protection. The only downside is that the table is not assembled but installing of the table legs is super easy! 
This is my relax corner in the bedroom, where I would drink my afternoon tea, while reading a book. The side table is big enough for me to place my drink and even a laptop if I want to watch my shows at this area. At only $34.50, I couldn't say no this! This table is so easy to assemble as no additional tools is required. 
This location of the living is the proposed study area. However, as we already have a study room, we decided to change it to a relax area. This bench from Taobao costs $240 and can sit up to 3 Pax. As this bench is light and easy portable. we are able to relocate as necessary when hosting multiple guests. No assembly for this bench is required! 
This was definitely my best purchase from Taobao. Need more space, this console does the job. For $350, I have a TV console that ranges from 2.1m to 3m. Normally for consoles like this, it will come in multiple parts and required to be assembled. But not for this! It came fully assembled and packaged well. Additional Advice - There are many cheap hauls you can find on Taobao, but do take caution when carting out as you may end up compromising on the quality of the items (some items are fragile and can be damaged upon shipping).
