Mr. Weeks--I am so grateful for finding out about you, your family, and your collective passion and devotion to craftsmanship in rocking chairs. It is really quite extraordinary to find that such a "niche" product hand-made in a small town in Texas can affect the lives and well-being of people all around the world! …
I don't have to write that I love the chair (I'm 6'2' and 250 pounds (of mostly muscle!) because I knew I would love it just from reading about the time and effort you and staff put into each one. But I was a little surprised to see the unanimous acclaim the chair received by everyone who has sat in it so far. Even my five year old granddaughter said it fit her perfectly! (I promised it to her, in the fullness of time.)
I assure you that this chair will remain in my family forever. And I will forever sing the praises of Weeks and Company to everyone who will say "Wow...Where did you get this rocking chair?"
... Sincerely, C.K.

Gary,
We are so glad to hear from you.
J. delivered their first baby on the 19th of December. Your Weeks rockers are the most beautiful and comfortable rockers anywhere! One of the best touches we have had is to meet the gal who actually made the rocking chair and delivered the chair! Autumn delivered the chair on the way to her Thanksgiving holiday with family. I was surprised at how young she is and how accomplished she is in woodworking. She delivered a top quality rocker...
You have grown the business so much, I practically don't recognize you. Ken and I bought our rocker several years earlier when your website was a little older and a lot fuzzier in appearance. The website is so professional compared to back then. I first found you by searching the web for rocking chairs that fit both short and tall people. Our family has people from 5 feet to 6'3”...
I love the Weeks rocking chair and frequently have people sit in it just for the experience, because it is such a lovely experience. The balance of the rocker makes for a soothing rock instead of a store bought clunky rock that requires more force to keep it going and "jumps" halfway through the rock because it isn't balanced properly. (think the white porch rockers that are sold everywhere or the more expensive rockers in a furniture store--there is simply no comparison)
Again, your craftsmanship is superb!
Merry Christmas to your family and family of Gary Weeks & Company!

Hi Austin,
We LOVE the rocking chair. It arrived safely to my MIL.’s house in Virginia. She’s afraid to have it downstairs because she says it’s the nicest piece of furniture in her house. But I think she’ll get used to it! Here's photo of grandma and baby. It also suits my husband and his 6’5” height. .... Thanks again! We just adore the chair.

Hi Gary,
My wife was quite surprised when she received the rocker and as you would probably expect, my wife loves it. The shape is perfect along with the woodwork. She was also amazed that while it fits her at 5’3” is also fits me at 6’1”. I’m not sure how you accomplished that because we’ve never found a rocker that both of us like. At present, she plans to share it with me. We’ll see how that works out!
From my perspective, I was amazed at the care you took in sending the rocker. It could have been picked up at your factory from the looks of the packaging right off the truck. Upon opening the box, I was exceptionally pleased with the care you took in making sure the rocker would have not even a scratch upon arrival. Your rocker is the best packaged item I’ve ever bought.
Thanks for all your help to make our 50th anniversary a special day for both of us.

Dear Gary, Austin & Autumn,
The most beautiful rocking chair was delivered to my daughter in Seattle yesterday! She LOVES it! She said it's incredibly well made, beautiful to look at, and so very comfortable. She and her husband are tall people and the proportions were just right!
I think the only thing that will improve upon it will be the addition of a baby in the not-too-distant future!
Thank you for all that you did to enhance our family with your rocking chair! We appreciate it.
Sincerely,

Dear Weeks Family
The Weeks Rocker was delivered around 3:00 by a courteous and helpful driver. We sent the box back for reuse—clever packaging.
The chair is beautiful, perfectly finished, comfortable for everyone that has tried it and looks great in our living room plus L. and I both love how it feels to sit in it. It is miraculous that something so durable can be so comfortable.
Thank you for your years of research, your fine woodcraft and beautiful finish.

Wow, the rocker arrived as promised. The shipping container was fully intact with no signs of being mishandled. After unpacking, the chair was in perfect condition, and beautiful as ever. My mom cried tears of gratitude, and rocked in it with the smile of a happy child on her face. The fit is perfect and the craftsmanship is outstanding. I am sincerely filled with gratitude for the joy that you all have brought to our hearts by creating such a wonderful piece of art that we will enjoy and keep in our family for years to come.
Thank you all once again.

Gary,
I ordered one of your walnut rockers as a present for my wife for her 60th birthday. She's wanted a rocking chair for quite some time to rock our grandchildren. I can't tell you how happy she is with the chair.
It's more beautiful than I imagined and is extremely comfortable. Our 5'3" daughter and 6'2" son-in-law were there and we all tried it out. I don't know how you did it but everyone who sat in the chair felt it was designed for them. My wife also commented on how 'soft' the wood is because it's so smooth. Never thought I would hear wood described as soft. It's really hard to walk past the chair and not sit down in it and relax for a while.
The service you provide is also top notch and something I really appreciate. You and Austin were very responsive, even though it was during the Christmas holiday. There was great communication throughout the ordering and shipping process. Even Mainfreight, the company you use to ship the chair, provided outstanding service.
It was really a pleasure doing business with your company. Please provide thanks to everyone!
Regards,

Gary,
Thank you so much for your thoughtful note. We also have been traveling, hence the rather late acknowledgement of how thrilled we are with our new rocker. It is so beautiful, a real work of art. And more important it is equally comfortable for myself (5'2") and my husband (6'1"). Would not have believed that to be possible. We are so happy with our chair, thanks again.
Appreciatively,
P.F.Blue Ash, Ohio
