Dear Mr. Weeks,

Your beautiful rocker arrived this afternoon and it was exactly as J. hoped it would be! It felt just the same as his memories of the feel and comfort of our son's Weeks' rocker. Your workmanship is exquisite. The finish has the feel of a fine silk satin. We are both so pleased and happy with our purchase. Many thank you's to you and your staff.

Sincerely,

Dear Mr. Weeks,

I have received my rocking chair. I love it!! All I can say is WOW.

The wood is so smooth to the touch that we can't keep our hands off of it. The chair is so comfortable. I sit in it for 3–5 hours a day while teaching school to my 7 children. I must admit that there have been arguments over whose turn it is to sit in it. I love the craftsmanship as well. I was skeptical about all the positive reviews, but not a one of them is wrong. Thank you! In fact my two oldest children are trying to decide if they should use their saved money to purchase a rocking chair instead of a car. They hope you stay in business for a long time since they want you to make all their furniture when they move out. They have spent all weekend looking at the products on your website. Hope that makes your day! . . .

Sincerely,
E.

Hello Gary and Leslie —

The rocker was delivered yesterday. The box was in reasonably good condition; the edge guards are brilliant. The delivery guy and I opened the box and removed the chair but did not unwrap it. Everything looked undamaged and I signed for it. I unwrapped it this morning and brought it inside. It is beautiful; an extraordinary piece of craftsmanship. I sat on it and immediately smiled because it is exactly as described on your website. Every surface is perfect. It is so comfortable. I was mostly unsure about there being only 4 slats in back but my concerns were unwarranted. I am looking forward to a rainy day to sit there by my window and read a good book, not that I won't be enjoying it on nice days, too.

Thank you,
M.

Dear Gary (and team)

I absolutely love the chair. Somehow my favorite little touch is the way my hands fit around the ends of the armrests, I know you sloped it there and I really like what you did. And everything else is fantastic. One of my best purchases ever.

Thanks!

Gary/Austin,

I am refinishing my mahogany rocker, I purchased from you in 2007, and have a question about what type of Penofin Penetrating Oil you normally use on mahogany. There are quite a few choices and I want to make sure I get the right one.

My chair has served me well, it has been outside on my covered porch since I brought it home and I sit in it almost everyday. It is still the most comfortable wooden rocker I have ever found. After cleaning it, it looks almost brand new, except for the "character" my dog chewed on the ends of the bottom of the rocker.

Your assistance and the quality craftsmanship is appreciated!

Regards,
D.

Gary, Austin and others:

First above anything else, thank you so much from the M. family for providing what has to be the most comfortable and relaxing chair in our entire house. Not a day goes by where we don't admire its beauty or sit in its welcoming form. Upon its arrival, I claimed it as my primary chair in the house. Upon the birth of our daughter, mom has summarily displaced me from this fictitious right and uses it every day for nursing, comforting as well as some well deserved napping. Each person that puts eyes on it for the first time is really quite taken with its beauty and craftsmanship. We couldn't be more happy with having this chair in our house and as part of our family. It will truly last a lifetime and beyond and I couldn't be more proud to pass this piece along to the future M. generation.

Thanks again for providing such a wonderful piece. We absolutely love it.

Hi Gary and Becca — the rocker is a huge success. My wife was quite surprised and loves it already. I enjoy running my hand along the incredibly silky smooth wood as I walk by and marvel at the craftsmanship. That's a really good shipping company that you guys work with as well. Again, we couldn't be happier with our Gary Weeks rocking chair.

Dear Mr. Weeks.

We have had many good conversations in the past. Our chairs are still a blessing to our family and the Rocker is the highlight of the living room.

The Mesquite Rocker can sit in a cabin in the wilderness or in the White House and wouldn't be out of place in either!
It's a Gary Weeks!

Your friend,

Becca,

The rocker came today and it is gorgeous and is so comfortable! I am very impressed that it does indeed fit perfectly. All the research you all did to discover the perfectly ergonomic rocking chair is incredibly rewarding. (All for your consumers!) Please tell all at the shop that they are indeed the best craftsmen ever! The beauty and the fit are unmatched anywhere.

Blessings,
