Hi Autumn, Gary, and the whole team at Gary Weeks & Company,
We received our new rocker and footstool on Saturday. We could not be more pleased with it! It arrived in perfect condition, and if anything, was even nicer than we could have expected! It is simply gorgeous, and amazingly comfortable. We've only been able to show it off to our daughter so far, but she said the same thing we did when we saw it. WOW!
We are thrilled with the rocker and footstool, and very happy that we still have a full set of dining chairs to look forward to receiving. And my wife is very pleased with me for finding you and your company, and for convincing her that this was a wonderful idea.
Thank all of you for your work, craftsmanship and dedication. It shows in your product, and is something you can all be proud of, as we will be proud to show our rocker off to everyone!Best regards,
G. and K. NWoodcliffe Lake, New Jersey

I just got my cherry rocker, it arrived in perfect shape and I love it.
And I also like the art work inside the box…Niko, the unicorn with wings and some other pretty stuff.
You guys did great.

Gary, Yes the rocker arrived in great condition and E. and N. and their five month-old son love it. This will likely be a family heirloom. Thank you and your team.-J

Hi Gary,
Thanks for the follow-up. The chair was a surprise for my wife - she was very pleased that we can both have a sit-down on the porch in the evening while the weather is still nice up here.
Regards,

Dear Gary,
We love the chair, the packaging, and service. We are already working on designing a table for you to make.

Hi Gary,
I did receive the rocking chair, just when you said it would come. And the delivery person was very pleasant and helpful. I rock in it almost every evening. It is my "let it be" chair.
It seems each time I sit in it I find something else to like about it. Just the other night I discovered if I turn a little and hang one leg over the arm I can use the edge of the back support slats and the rocking motion to massage my back. Aaah. I don't have any problems with my tailbone resting on the seat, which is a nice surprise. I especially like that the slats in the back leave a spot for my spine right in the middle, that there's room for me to tuck my feet underneath, and that it rocks pretty far without ever feeling unstable. And it's absolutely beautiful.
I almost hate to give any non-positive feedback, because it might make you think I enjoy my chair less or expect you to do anything about this stuff. But you seem like you might appreciate it... So this is just for your information; no need to respond.
- The bottom of the shipping box was very dirty - that black greasy dirt that sticks to things. If I had carpet instead of hardwood floors I would probably have had to clean the carpet afterwards.
- I find that resting my arms on the arm rests isn't all that comfortable. I'm not sure why. They feel a little too high and far away from my body. I am about average height for a woman (5'-7") but I think I have long arms for my height. And I'm on the slender side. In fact it's more comfortable for me to tuck my elbows through the back of the chair and put my hands on the seat next to my behind.
Last night my good friend M. came over and spent some time in the rocking chair. She's had a difficult few weeks and she really seemed to find the rocking chair soothing. She also thought it was beautiful.
Thank you for building such a functional and beautiful piece! It is a joy to have it in my life.
Thanks,
C.D.

I received my cherry rocking chair in perfect condition on July 24. It’s safely situated in my home and I absolutely love the chair. You have created a truly beautiful chair, elegant in its simplicity and quite graceful in appearance. I am delighted to have this hand-crafted rocker in my home. It is remarkably comfortable, and I look forward to many years of pleasurable use. So happy with it!
By the way, the packaging was amazing, perfect for making sure the rocker was not damaged.
Please give my thanks to the artisans who so lovingly created my lifetime chair.J.G.

Thanks for the follow-up. The chair was delivered on schedule and the shipper was extra helpful.
I love the chair and am sitting in it now as I write this. It’s in our sunroom.
