Gary:

First, if I were to inform you that the rocker arrived but was a debacle of kindling with really nothing left to return, would you send me a new one with no questions asked? If that be the case, that's my story and I'm sticking to it. Disregard the following.

We received the rocker in excellent shape on the 10th of December. I placed it in our living room and four days later my beloved discovered it — finally! That is less a comment on her powers of observation and more of a comment that our lives have been a bit hectic. I now find her sitting in it, rocking, with what I can only describe as a slightly goofy grin on her face. I believe that she likes it.

I must tell you that it is rare in my experience to find excellent artistic ability combined with superb craftsmanship and we couldn't be more pleased with the rocker, in spite of the fact that it was made with firewood. Thank you. It will be an heirloom to be passed on to the next generation.

Happy Holidays. I look forward to hearing from you. And if the first paragraph applies, please disregard the rest of this missive.

Hi,

My rocking chair came today and I am writing to say how handsome it is. I had asked Gary to pick out one with as much grain as possible, and the one that I got looked even better than I had hoped for.

Happy holidays for all of you,

Hello Mr Weeks and Company,

I just wanted to let you know that we got the chair and it's beautiful.

My wife hasn't seen your website, but her comments echo what others have already said:

"It's beautiful"
"A work of art"
"Looks like it belongs in a museum"

She especially made me smile when she sat in the chair and said, "It fits me so nice, is this made for short people?"

It felt great to give this to her from the whole family. Thanks for your quick, professional, and beautiful work!

Best Regards,
C.B.

Gary,

The rocking chair arrived yesterday. It's beautiful and looks to be in perfect condition after the trip. J. loves it and took pictures of it in the nursery to send to her sister and mom. You may or may not know, but there is a new trend for moms-to-be to get a "push" present. Your rocker has made a fantastic push present.

Thank you and happy holidays to you and your family.

Gary:

Many thanks for your email. Let me start by quoting my 12 year old son, who said about 2 days after the chair arrived, "you know Dad, this is the first time in my life that I have ever looked at a piece of furniture and thought it was truly beautiful."

The chair arrived in perfect condition and is, as my son noted, truly beautiful. I have been sitting in it every chance I get (often to the consternation of my family members who would like me to do some other things around the house). I typically am quite methodical about making purchases, but this was an extreme example. I contemplated ordering a rocking chair from you for about ten years. I'm sorry I waited so long, but I'm also at a point when I can truly appreciate the effort that went into making it. I like it more every time I sit in it.

You make a remarkable finished product, of which you should be very proud.

Best regards,
J.H.

Dear Gary Weeks,

The chair arrived on Monday and it is spectacular. The walnut is deep and luminous.

To be honest, I had wondered how a wooden rocking chair could be as comfortable as you and your customers claim. But it's true! The chair is comfortable to both me (I'm 5'11") and my husband (He's 5'8"). Even though it's made of wood, it's incredibly soft and supportive.

We are expecting our second child in a couple of weeks, and even at 9 months pregnant I can rock comfortably with our daughter, who's three. I'm so looking forward to nursing and rocking our baby, too.

You really do make a beautiful chair.

Thanks,
S.M.

Hi Gary,

We delivered the chair to our Birthday brother, and packaging protected everything. Is a beautiful chair, very comfortable, and something we would love to have for ourselves some day.

Thanks for making this whole process so pleasant and keeping us informed of options, and the progress.

Please take care,
P.D.
