Gary Week’s rocker is absolutely the most comfortable rocker around, as this is the last place I sit before climbing into bed. Often I doze off, rocking away.

I own many rocking chairs—from antique mission rockers and caned seated ones to creaky, old wooden ones. I also have rocking chairs on both outside patios—vintage metal rocking chairs that I restored and the polywood rockers. I have a total of 10 rocking chairs dotted in my home or outside areas. If there is a rocking chair in a room, that’s where I want to sit.

With that said, my husband and I recently retired. We wanted chairs in our TV room that were super comfortable and were pleasing to the eye. All I wanted was a rocking chair. My husband googled “best rocking chairs.” We found Gary Weeks. His shop is located in Texas. I am in Philadelphia. I was concerned about purchasing a piece of furniture without sitting in it or even seeing it. I called the shop. Gary immediately called me back. I shared my concerns. He assured me that if I was not totally satisfied with the rocker, he would pay for shipping back and give me a total refund, including the initial shipping cost. So, I thought this could work.

The wood Gary uses is stunning. It is as if sunshine is in the room at all times. The craftsmanship is incredible. I have arthritis in my shoulder. The armrests are perfectly aligned with your spine. I feel no pain or discomfort while sitting in this chair. The back is amazing for lumbar support. If you watch Gary Weeks’s video on his website, it discusses all the comfort points. This was what sold me initially. And, the promises he makes are real. It is the most comfortable chair —hands down—around. It is a piece of art. It is designed to support your body’s structure. As I said in the beginning of this review, Gary Weeks’s rocking chair is the last place I sit before climbing into my bed. It lulls me to sleep. You will not be disappointed.

Gary -

It has been our pleasure to work with your company. The new desk looks great and I am excited to have it. It is fun to see it on your website. Austin was great to work with on designing the desk.

...I appreciate the craftsmanship of Gary Weeks & Company.

L. ,

Here's a little case study. I'm 5 feet 2 inches and sat on the chair right after we got it out of the box (by the way, it was really well packed with padding where it was necessary but no extra garbage, and in a high quality box that had clearly been designed for this chair). Not only did I find it very comfortable, but I also noticed something very unusual: my feet reached the ground when I was sitting. Then it was S.'s turn. There was silence until S. finally said what we were both thinking. If I could reach the ground, the chair was going to be ridiculously tiny for his 6 feet 2 inches.

Well... he tried it and also liked it a lot. We were very impressed by the design. Honestly, I didn't think it'd be possible to make a chair that would be comfortable for body types as different as ours. I'll learn more about Gary and his team on their website. I'm curious now!

Thank you!

Dear Gary and Austin,

Well, it seems like an eternity, but today was finally the day. The rocker arrived a bit tired from its travels, but no worse for wear - ...

It is truly a thing of beauty. I'm particularly enamored with the figure in the back splats.

Thank you both for the amazing work that you continue to do, and thanks especially for putting up with all the hassle of shipping this treasure so far from home.

Sincerest and kindest regards,
C.

The coffee table is gorgeous! I plan to order a plant table or bookcase to complete “mom’s walnut room” as my family now calls it. I couldn’t be happier! Your rocker was the beginning of a wonderful furniture buying experience. I’d like to refurnish many rooms from your company.

Hi Gary,

Thank you for reaching out. The rocker is absolutely wonderful. It is better than I could have ever imagined. C. loves it and basically can not stop talking about how much he loves it. The wood is so soft, the shape and size is perfect. It is currently living in our living room because he would like to sit in it by the fire every night of the winter before moving out to the porch for spring.

Thanks again for such wonderful craftsmanship and customer service. It means the world!

Kindly,
H.

Mr. Weeks:

The Rocker arrived this morning. It appears that it showed delivery on the AIT site, but that was delivery to a subsequent Carrier. It arrived today without damage. My wife’s response was IT’s FABULOUS! Thank you for this work of art. I have enjoyed doing business with you and keep up the good work.

Hi Gary,

My wife was quite surprised when she received the rocker and as you would probably expect, my wife loves it. The shape is perfect along with the woodwork. She was also amazed that while it fits her at 5’3” is also fits me at 6’1”. I’m not sure how you accomplished that because we’ve never found a rocker that both of us like. At present, she plans to share it with me. We’ll see how that works out!

From my perspective, I was amazed at the care you took in sending the rocker. It could have been picked up at your factory from the looks of the packaging right off the truck. Upon opening the box, I was exceptionally pleased with the care you took in making sure the rocker would have not even a scratch upon arrival. Your rocker is the best packaged item I’ve ever bought.

Thanks for all your help to make our 50th anniversary a special day for both of us.
