Hello Gary Weeks & Company

This past weekend I became the proud owner of a Weeks Rocker — it was a 50th birthday gift from my girlfriend L.!

It is a beautiful and comfortable chair and you should know that I will enjoy every minute in it.

Hi Gary, Just wanted to let you know that the rocker arrived in perfect shape, was a complete surprise, and Rick says he "really, really likes it." Thanks for all your help, for making such a wonderful product, and for working with us to make it a surprise. I would recommend your business to everyone. Thanks again,

Dear Gary,

D. has had his 50th birthday rocking chair for almost a year now and I can tell you that if he is home and sitting down, it is likely that he is sitting in his rocker. He is so pleased to have it. The chair sits in our living room, near the wood stove, in front of the windows looking over our back yard. The chair is comfortable enough that he can sit for hours working (he's a computer scientist and sometimes works at home) and it is roomy enough that he and his laptop fit nicely. Thank you so much for working with me to give him something that he really enjoys and cherishes.

Best,
S.

P.S. He was delighted with the surreptitious carved lizard.

Hi Gary,

Yes, DB Schenker and I arranged for delivery today and it actually arrived about an hour ago. I noted a couple of punctures on the carton, but they were rather superficial and I was confident the furniture was not damaged. Actually the chair is in perfect condition. I noticed you left off the strips after all (if you recall my agonized e-mail about that). Since this chair will always be on a rug, I imagine it will be just fine.

Well, now as to what I'd really like to say: Even though I had such high expectations from my previous experience, I was just as excited to see our new rocking chair as I was the first time. The mesquite is gorgeous! My husband is thrilled with his birthday present and can now rock and read just as comfortably in New York as he can in San Francisco. Thanks again and again for such fine work.

Best regards,
L.

Dear Gary,

I write to report that the delivery of my sister's new rocking chair was timely and that when unveiled on Christmas day was a great success! All marveled at the joinery, material, finish and ergonomics and greatly approved of the future heirloom. My nephew has visited his mom since Christmas just to pet the chair. Congratulations on the creation of this beautiful all-American work of art.

Yours,

Gary,

Every time I walk into the living room and see the new rocking chair, I smile. It's just so beautiful and elegant. And the walnut was well worth waiting for — it looks so deep and rich. Everyone who has seen it admired your extraordinary workmanship. It's also the most comfortable rocking chair I've ever sat in!

My husband hasn't seen his birthday present "in person" yet, but he's sussed out your web site and he thinks the rocker is simply gorgeous! I know he'll be as thrilled as I was when he does see it. I'll let you know.

I suppose it does take a leap of faith to order furniture on line from persons unknown, but clearly my trust was well placed. And you can be sure that when anyone admires our new rocking chair, I will tell him exactly where it comes from!

Please feel free to share my comments with those who work with you and anyone thinking about ordering your beautiful furniture. I expect they'd be as happy as I am with the purchase.

Thank you again and again.

Yes, we did receive the rocker and we have delivered to the baby shower house, my son unwrapped it and said it is beautiful, although I haven't personally seen it and won't until Sunday.

Thank you so much.

Yes, they received the chair with plaque and stool and were so surprised! They just love it and will indeed start making memories . . . she will have years of happy memories, I'm sure.

Thank you Gary for the nice woodwork that you and your staff do. I will surely recommend you to any and all.

Thank you again to you and your family.

Blessings,

Dear Mr. Weeks,

About three or four years ago my uncle from Dallas visited our place in Western Oregon. We had a wonderful reunion and visit. He looked around and said, "What, no rocking chair? You need a good rocking chair someday."

Shortly after his visit you notified me to expect an arrival of a gift and the rocker arrived soon after that, impeccably crafted AND shipped.

My uncle died shortly thereafter and I have this wonderful rocking chair that we just love to have for many reasons. It is just the nicest gift we have ever received and I love to tell visitors who sent it, who made it, and how much it means to us.

I just thought I would pass this along to you, I congratulate you on your craft.

Best wishes sir,
H.

Hello Gary,

My father purchased one of your rocking chairs for me when I finished my dissertation a few years ago. My husband and I have really enjoyed using the chair and watching the beautiful cherry wood deepen in color as time goes by. Everyone that visits our home loves rocking in the wonderful chair you built.

Thank you,
