Category: Rocking Chair - Craftsmanship

December 24, 2005

Dear Weeks Family,

It's been a few months since my husband and I were in your studio, but I wanted to let you know how much we are enjoying our rocking chair. We are the couple that dropped in late one afternoon to look at your chairs for our nursery. When we got home with our daughter, whom we adopted from Colombia, I went straight upstairs to sit and feed her in our beautiful rocker. I continue to use it everyday and whenever someone comes over to see us I just can't wait to show it off!

It was such a pleasure to meet you and your wife that day. I couldn't be happier with our purchase and the service we received from you both. It's heart-warming to know there are still family-owned companies that put so much of themselves into their product — it really shows how dedicated you are to your craft. We will cherish the rocker for many years.

Thanks so much!
D.B.

Gary,

You out did yourself!

R. was shocked, breathless and then smiled when sat in 'her' rocker. The people in this part of VA. have never seen such a work of beauty and art.

Simple words cannot describe the heartfelt joy I know this rocker will give her. This whole process has been so much fun I'm going to do the same for my sister in San Diego (I'll keep you posted as to when I'll order.)

Again, my many thanks to you for your 'touch'. Merry Christmas! . . . And we'll be talking!

Gary:

The rocker arrived in perfect shape. I have already rocked my grandson, Rueben (age one month), in it, and he thinks that it is a great ride. I plan to put a lot of miles on it over the holidays.

This is a very good product — the lines, proportion and finish are of superb quality. Thank you for your courtesy in following up on the delivery. Merry Christmas to you, too.

Gary,

Actually he graduates this Saturday. Yes, I did receive the rocker on Friday — in the midst of the snow storm here in Lancaster. I did find a tear in the box, and marked it on the shipping slip — but the rocker was unmarked. I love it Gary — you are right, I don't miss the two extra slats in some rockers. I am really impressed with the finish, the overall craftsmanship of the rocker, and feel of the rocker. I can't wait to give it to M. I must share with you — however, if he is not as excited with it as I am, I will have to return it. As much as I love it, it is a little out of my league for myself.

It is, however, exactly what I was looking for. I think the lines of the rocker would fit well with furniture from modern to Early American. I just love the clean lines and beautiful cherry wood.

Thanks again,
M. A.

Gary —

The rocker arrived pretty much right at the time promised, and unpacking it was much easier than I expected it to be. We are very pleased with how comfortable it is. My wife, who had been thinking of it as merely something for me, immediately found relief for her back in it and was surprised by how much she liked it (she's six months pregnant). Clearly, I will have to yield to her. Oh, and we were really impressed by the stool. You made something very simple into something really intriguing to look at, and it works very well with the chair.

Thanks again for better service than one gets anywhere, not to mention for furniture that lives up to expectation.

Gary,

The rocker and stool arrived in perfect shape. The chair is even more beautiful and comfortable than I had imagined it would be. I'll be ordering one or two more in the spring.

Thanks for your great service and product. You give me hope that American craftsmanship is alive and well, at least in Wimberly, TX.

Best wishes for a healthy and happy holiday season.

Gary,

I've just finished unwrapping the chair at my house. It is perfect! The box was undamaged at the terminal. I unpacked it from the crate and it fit right in the back of my Jeep Liberty with the seats down. It is a beautiful thing, a real work of art. I appreciate the effort you made to get it here before Thanksgiving. When my wife gets home tonight she will be delighted. Please use us as a reference, not that you seem to need any. This chair will be used and loved beyond our years.

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving,
C.M.

Hi Gary,

The rocking chair was delivered last evening without incident, and the driver was, as you suggested, much more cooperative than the dispatcher. That individual could use some training in giving some hope to the customer that maybe things won't be as complex as was described, and refraining from the definite "no's" about which she was adamant. A simple "it is the prerogative of the driver" would suffice.

The rocker is the epitomy of fine craftsmanship. The finish is impeccable. The quality and workmanship makes us know our great grandchildren will still have use of it in the future long after our rocking days are over.

Hi Gary,

Thank you for following up. As you recommended, I called to confirm delivery. We did receive the rocker late yesterday afternoon (as expected). It arrived in perfect shape and is absolutely beautiful. We couldn't be happier. Your craftsmanship surely lives up to our expectations.

Again, I appreciate your follow-up. We will definitely keep you in mind for additional pieces and referrals. We wish you continued success.

Sincerely,
S.G.
