Yes, the rocker arrived in perfect condition, and I love it. It's like a graceful piece of sculpture that brings the whole room alive. Just as important, it fits me perfectly. I'm having hip-replacement surgery in September, after which I have to remain non-weight bearing for eight weeks (because of the particular type of surgery). Although I'd been coveting the rocker for some time, it was the prospect of spending two months off my feet (or rather off my left foot) that finally prompted me to order it. My reasoning is that the rocking movement will promote better circulation and help ward off the danger of blood clots. In conjunction with my physical therapy program, it will also help me maintain strength on the operated side. I noticed that the arms are well-placed for getting up from the chair. The clinics in my hospital have rockers in the waiting rooms (not as nice as yours), and I'd noticed how soothing it was to rock when I was feeling nervous or stressed before my appointments. Now I can have "rocker therapy" at home, too.

Thanks!

Hi Gary,

The rocking chair has arrived and I am amazed at the fine workmanship. You and your team exemplify what "Made in America" used to look. The chair is so comfortable. Wow, very impressive!

The package came through undamaged. You really know how to protect your products. If anyone asks me about where to get a quality rocking chair, your name will be the first one (and only one) that comes out of my mouth. Thanks a million. It was well worth the wait and the price. I will enjoy this piece of furniture for many, many years to come.

Gary –

I've been meaning to write to you about the surprise delivery. The note to call before delivery got covered by a routing sticker, so they just showed up. Fortunately, I was home and so have been enjoying my gorgeous and incredibly comfortable new rocker earlier than expected. The shipping process didn't even mark the cardboard, and the chair arrived in perfect condition.

The one downside is that I have significant competition for the seat, from any human who comes near it, but also from my little female cat who insists it's the perfect size and shape for her. She will, at least, let me sit between her and the chair.

I don't live in a mansion here, but rather in a tiny place that's almost all built by hand, with trim, decking and shelving made from site-milled cedar and fir. The wonderful description of your design and construction process on your web site helped me understand that your chair would be a perfect fit in my new mini house. Thank you so much for the marvelous rocker and for the seamless ordering and delivery process.

Hi Gary,

As promised, here is a picture of the set in its new home. D. and I think it is the most beautiful spot on earth, so to find furniture that matches that beauty . . . Well, we are just so very pleased with it. It is just lovely; even lovelier than the picture. We hope to enjoy it with our family for many years to come. Thanks so much for your care in creating such amazing pieces.

Best regards,

Dear Gary,

The delivery truck driver asked me what was so special about these chairs — he delivers so many (I'm assuming he meant in the Washington, DC area where I live). So I told him all about them before I'd even unpacked mine.

I want you to know my rocker is everything I told him it was and more. I've never cried over a piece of furniture before, but I did over this. (Heck, truth be known, I cried over the website.) Of course it has to do with the beauty and comfort of the chair. But it's also the fact that it was crafted in West Texas, which is very special to me . . .

Next time I get to West Texas, I hope to come meet you and see your showroom. Thanks more than I can say.

Gary,

Thank you so much for the refinishing offer. I don't think the chair would fit in my car or I would take you up on it.

I have to tell you that chair is the most beautiful work of art I have ever purchased. The moment I saw it, I knew it would be coming home with me. You are so incredibly talented. I paid $1,000 for it at Whit Hanks. I remember because it was my Christmas bonus check from work. I knew if I did not buy it, I would regret it.

Thank you so much for the years of enjoyment and the wonderful memories of rocking my baby girls over the years

Hi Gary,

We received the chair and absolutely love it. In fact, our baby loves it too! Excellent craftsmanship — truly a work of art. Thanks again for expediting the order. It has been a pleasure doing business with you.

The Gary Weeks Rocker: Mesquite
Glass is yet to compare to it’s smoothness.
Exquisite elegance that can go from a log cabin to the White House, from "Maw’s" porch to the Smithsonian and never be out of place.
Truly an antique in the future that will be a prized treasure.
Beauty that delights the eye and blessed for the body to behold!

The Dining Chair. Walnut
An unmatched masterpiece. I have never owned nor had the pleasure of dining in a chair with such character. The lumbar support while eating and the support of the thighs is unparralled in the dining experience.
Buy the Best First and you’ll never regret it!
Gary Weeks is an artist that quickly becomes a friend~!
