Gary,

The chair and stool got here in perfect shape. And the chair sits wonderfully! Thank you so much for your crafsmanship and dedication to excellence. America needs more of you. I will happily recommend you to any and all. Please pass along to your son and other employees my thanks.

I do hope we can meet some day.

My very best,
J. B.

I apologize for not writing sooner — it has been a bit of a whirlwind since we picked it up on Saturday. We only opened it last night. We thought we would try not to but we just couldn't resist taking it out of the crate. It is exquisite . . . I love how the grains match so beautifully. It is truly a work of art.

Of course, we could not resist sitting in it if only briefly and oh my, it is so comfortable. It holds the body just so . . . as if it were made to measure for each one who sits in it. No doubt our family will spend long hours daydreaming in that perfect chair. Indeed, I write stories for my grandchildren and I can already feel one coming on about the magic rocker that will take you anywhere your imagination can go; the magic rocker that fits every body just so. Imagine the adventures that will be had for generations in that perfect chair!

We haven't given the gift yet as we will present it to them on their wedding which is June 21, 2017. Honestly, we are tempted to keep it so it is a good thing the initials are on the chair as we can't hide the fact that it is actually for F.!! We do know that they will love it as much as we do and that it will become a family heirloom.

Oh and I should add that I did not end up having to pay duty. The very kind Canadian Border Officer asked me what was in the crate and I told her the truth. The perfect rocker, hand made in Texas and a wedding gift. She smiled and said have a nice day and a beautiful wedding. So despite a moment of confusion your perfect rocker is already creating good relations!

Many, many thanks
B. & family

Good Morning Austin,

My walnut rocker arrived in Sisters, Oregon yesterday in perfect condition.

When I ordered this rocker, I told you that I had a very bad lower back and there was a good possibility that the chair wouldn't work for me. You said that it wasn't a problem and that if the chair wasn't comfortable, I could send it back for a refund.

My purpose in writing you today is to tell you that this chair is NEVER going to be returned. My wife was the first to sit in it. She sat down and said, "Oh My God, this is so comfortable." When I sat in it, I had the same thought.

I spent most of yesterday afternoon sitting in the chair marveling at how good it felt. The chair is beautiful. The chair is comfortable. What more could I ask for?

Thank you for making this chair for me.

Sincerely,
D. S.

Hello Gary Weeks and Company!

I purchased one of your rocking chairs back in 1998 right before the birth of our first child. In fact, it's rocker #341. I am so proud of my chair and LOVE sitting in it! In fact, it's in our bedroom, so I look at it every day!! When we have guests visit, I make sure they sit in it and you know what they always say? Well, you guys know! "It's so incredibly comfortable!!!" So, you know we are huge fans of your work!

. . . And Gary, I called you about a year ago, looking for a Texas woodworker who made wooden urns — not sure if you remember me. You gave me a number that lead me here and there, but we eventually finally found someone in the Austin area. He handmade us a beautiful urn for my father-in-law's ashes.
It sits on a shelf in our living room and it is such a beautiful and special piece. So, thanks for helping us find someone!

Regards,
K. L.

Hello Gary, indeed, both chairs were delivered in perfect condition. Moreover, I am VERY pleased. I haven't been this comfortable sitting for as long as I can remember.

I have since shared links to your website with friends who I think might be interested.

Thank you so much Gary Weeks and Company!

Gary, The chair is indeed here. I have gone from a couch potato to a rocking chair tomato. Not only is it more comfortable than I expected (and I expected a lot considering your guarantee) but it is even more beautiful than its picture. Sometimes I have to decide whether to sit in it or look at it.

Peace,

Gary,

Thanks so much for the note. We are loving the chair. It's so comfortable.
The wood pattern is so beautiful, it is truly a work of art.
Attached are the pictures we took.

Take care.

Gary,

I hope you and your family had a nice Christmas and are enjoying the new year. As promised, attached are photos of my grandchildren and me in the rocking chair. During the first weekend we had the rocking chair, I think my granddaughter spent more time in it than I did!

Everyone who has visited our home and seen the rocking chair thinks it is beautiful and comfortable. When I hosted Bible Study a few weeks ago, all the ladies had to try it out :)

I am really enjoying the rocking chair — it fits me well and is very comfortable. And beautiful! I really enjoy having it in my home.

Thank you again!

Gary,

I'm sorry for not messaging sooner. The chair has arrived. It is beautiful, comfortable, and we are thrilled to bring it with us as we become parents.

Thank you again for the time and care you put into it. It means a lot to us. We'll send another photo with someone in it once the baby is born!

Hello Gary,

We were sorry to have missed you during our visit, but want to tell you what a privilege it was to visit your workshop and to meet Austin. He was so pleasant and informative, and is very much a credit to his parents.

Your rocking chair has indeed found an appreciative home; we can't get over how comfortable — and how beautifully made — it is. It's got quite a few rocking miles on it already! Please, if you're ever up around our way . . . give us a call. We'd love to meet you!

Sincerely,
M. & R.
