Gary,
We received our rocking chair a few weeks ago and have waited to write to you while we tried it out. We even kept the shipping box in case we decided to return it. Well, all that was foolishness. I think we knew from the first moment we saw it and sat in it that we wouldn't be sending it back. What a wonderful combination of comfort and art! We had visited many local furniture stores and searched on line, but never found anything that we liked. Every chair was either clunky looking or uncomfortable, or both. Then, by luck, we came across your chair on the web. It has turned out to be everything we had hoped for. We are especially happy with the smooth yet warm and soft finish — such a pleasure to run our fingers over. Thank you for creating such a terrific product.
Thanks again for the loving care and attention to detail that you put into creating our chair.

Gary,
The chair was delivered seamlessly, and my husband and I love it. It is beautiful and so comfortable and soothing to sit in. We took a leap of faith ordering it, and are so glad that we did. We are very grateful for your skill and artistry, and you can imagine us using it before the fireplace during our very long, cold upstate New York winters!
Thank-you.

I LOVE the rocker —I'm sitting in it now. When I first sat in it, the words out of my mouth were, "It's perfect!".
Please know that your website convinced me that I should buy this particular rocker.
Thank you.

Hi Gary,
Everyone who sits in our chairs loves them. You make a beautiful piece of furniture. My husband is a beginning woodworker and is wondering how you get such a smooth finish on your furniture. Do you use mineral oil and sand, sand, sand and do you use an electric sander or is it all by hand? He is so impressed and would love to know how he can get that kind of finish. I am sure you are very particular about your wood too. Is that part of the secret?

Dear Gary and Austin,
We've just received the rocker and the stool. They are just so beautiful and so comfortable (oh, well.. You probably hear this so often...).

Thank you Gary. Although I was unable to be there when the gift [rocking chair for retirement] was presented, I heard it went over very, very well.
Best,

Bonjour Gary,
Quelques mots en français pour vous dire combien nous sommes heureux de nous balancer dans votre rocking chair.
Il est arrivé en parfait état et il est magnifique. Tout le monde se bat pour s'y assoir et je crois qu'en final c'est un cadeau pour tout la famille!
Merci encore et bravo pour ce magnifique travail.

Gary,
My wife is a professor of Industrial Design, and I find it hard to please her keen eye and taste. The chairs were a win though, and they are comfortable as promised. We are happy customers. Thank you.
Thanks for the professional and easy experience as well throughout the process.
Sincerely,

Hi Gary,
The stools arrived yesterday in the middle of a 2 day move in, so I'm sorry I haven't had a chance to write yet. We just got the internet working. They are perfect – perfect color for our kitchen, perfect height, and very comfortable, especially when taking a break from directing movers. I'm very glad we got the wider ones, and I'm glad we stuck with just 4, which allows plenty of room to the sides to hop on and off. Thanks for that advice. The delivery guy could have come straight out of a Coen brothers movie, but everything was totally in tact.
As we watched all our belongings getting moved in, K. remarked that our dining chairs were the best looking of all our things for our new house. None of our kid and pet-battered stuff seems worthy of our pretty new place, except for your furniture . . .
Our cherry rocker has a nice spot for now in our bedroom, looking at a little redwood glade. It's a nice place for it. So our Weeks family of furniture is happy in its new home . . .
Thanks again,
N.Kentfield, California
