Gary, the rocker is fabulous! Beautiful work, excellent grain work, great size — my wife had a feeling about you all — it's great that real skill and pride in such still lives! . . . I think I will be thanking you for many years to come — indebted J.

Dear Gary,

As you are aware, I was in for a wonderful surprise upon my return to my home in Winnipeg. The container was in the garage and it immediately tweaked my curiosity. When Stewart told me it was an anniversary gift I decided to open it a bit later. This allowed some time for a guessing game. Needless to say, I could not figure it out.

What a beautiful rocker. It is a work of art. I wanted to put it on a pedestal so everyone would be able to admire the beauty of the wood but the rocker's form invites me to sit and relax.

I most certainly appreciate your talents as a craftsman. Thank you.

The rocker arrived on time without damage of any kind due it's being very well packed and crated by your staff. The chair is gorgeous — its flowing lines, the way the figure in the wood has been matched, details like the slight bevel in the arms where a person's forearms would naturally rest, and the way it's been oiled are a wonderful example of craftsmanship — is one of the most treasured things in our home. I also want to express my thanks for the regular and ongoing correspondence during the interval from order to delivery. It's been a pleasure to deal with you.

I recently purchased my second rocking chair from Gary Weeks, having found my first one to be the most comfortable rocker that I have ever sat in. I found them to be extremely courteous and accommodating, and the price of the chair to be very reasonable for a custom rocking chair. My second chair initially arrived damaged from shipping, and they were understanding and swiftly replaced it. I can't recommend them enough!

Gary — the rocker was delivered yesterday without any damage to the packaging or the rocker. The rocker is absolutely beautiful, and my wife and I are just thrilled with it. I want to commend you and your company on your fine craftsmanship. The wood, finish and joints are perfect. More importantly, my wife could not believe how comfortable the rocker is. We are proud owners of your work and look forward to a lifetime's enjoyment of it. Your company has two new loyal customers (soon to be three), and we will certainly recommend your company to our family and friends. One last thing, I want to thank you for your service — it was as good as your rocker. Thank you, Gary, it was a pleasure doing business with you.

Sincerely,

Hi Gary,

I meant to write you as soon as the chair was delivered on August 2nd, but it turns out we were busy with another delivery that day. Our daughter was born at 10pm! Grandpa came home from the hospital to receive the chair, where it sat until I opened the crate this morning.

It is now our favorite place to nurse, cuddle, and contemplate our amazing little N. (as you can see in the attached picture). The chair is truly beautiful, and I'm very happy with our choice of cherry.

Thanks again

Gary,

I'm very happy with my chair! And I have been comfortably rocking since it got here yesterday morning. It's such a pleasure just to look at. My husband loves it as well!

We are really very proud of it — you did such a great job, as I knew you would. I'm looking forward to showing it to friends and family.

Thanks so much,
J.D.

Dear Gary Weeks and Company:

It has been about a year since I received delivery of my cherry rocker. Suffice to say I have never had second thoughts about my purchase. The chair is my home base for reading, relaxing, and even some reflecting. Even when not sitting, its joining of form and function always pleases the eye and elevates my expectations of what excellence is and might be. Thank you again for your work; know that it has become a part of our family.

Hi Gary,

We received the rocker on Thursday and are thrilled . . . It's beautiful and very comfortable . . . I'm sure the baby will love it as much as I.

Thanks again,

Dear Gary,

We are ecstatic about our Weeks Rocker!!! You are a masterful furniture artist — it is simple, elegant and extremely comfortable. In fact, I've hardly been anywhere else but sitting in that rocker since it arrived on Tuesday. We will take some photos of how we are enjoying the rocker and promise to share a couple of them with you.

The shipment arrived on time and intact — excellent work!

Thanks again for the great customer service.

Fondly,

Hello Gary,

Thanks again for sending the felt pads, we received them today. I can now remove the unsightly blanket I put under the rocker.

When F. tore off the bubble wrap to expose the rich walnut wood we were all excited by what we saw. The wood grain and satin finish is sweet (OK exquisite). He thinks it's both comfortable and good looking. We are lucky to have one of your rockers.

F. said, "He plans to spend a lot of waking hours, as well as non-waking hours in the rocker".

Best regards,
M. and F.Y.
