Gary,

Thanks for the note. The furniture arrived last Thursday. I met Joseph (he is an exceptional employee and speaks well for your company) and we put all the furniture in my house and I've been out of town since Thursday.

I'm pleased with your work and the outcome. I'm glad I happened upon your web site and chose to have you build this furniture.

I need to level my elliptical table (the floor is slightly uneven.) And, I'm missing four of the chair leg pads (the inset holes are there, but the pads are missing.)

I'll send photographs to you in a few days so you can show off your work. You can always use me as a reference Customer.

Dear Gary,

Yesterday, in our short conversation, I mentioned the very positive effect your Rocking Chair video had on my final selection of Weeks Rockers. I had been all over the net, and could have sprung for a much higher ticket chair had their qualities been sufficiently important. I read all the pitches, and lusted after one or the other quite a few times before reaching your site, and carefully considering all that you present in your brochure, website, blog and video.

. . .

Your video presentation was thorough and most informative, but concise, and it never felt rushed or high pressure in any way. You have a thoughtful, measured style, and a way with the perfect words for the situation. I have since read your web materials more closely and see that style is similarly represented in your written products. The things you publish are easy to read and most educational, without being verbose or stilted. I am particularly impressed that you give your co-workers, suppliers, and even counterparts much credit. Your discussion about Mr. Sam Maloof was enlightening and most complimentary. It appears to me that you have given as much or more thought into the development of a fine rocker as anybody.

. . .

Now, I have yet to even see a Weeks piece in person, but I know that I will be very satisfied. The composition of your family-based, All-American company, and the thoughtful selection of woods, and proud craftsmanship, will surely result in furniture that we will treasure and be proud to pass on.

. . .

I am not given to pumping sunshine, and I am indeed no valued critic, but your presentations made a lot of difference in my selection. I am convinced that I'm buying the best value rockers available. I hope you put your brand on the items somewhere. I am grateful that you have taken the time to chat with me about my concerns and special requests. It means a lot to me to "know" the people that create the things that are important. I can't wait to add them to our little castle.

My only regret is that I am unable to visit your shop and meet you personally.

Wishing you and your staff a healthy and prosperous future.

Most Respectfully,
J.

Gary: We just love the counter stools you made for us. We get asked about them all the time. Thanks again!

I recieved my rocker and I love it!!! I have to sit on a firm chair because of my back, and have been sitting on a kitchen chair for a while.

I can't tell you how many chairs I have tried that weren't supportive enough.

It is so wonderful to have a chair that is so comfortable and supportive that I can sit and relax in! It is a beautiful piece of furniture, a work of art.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

Yes the chair was delivered on Wednesday. Chair is great although little bit more straight up position than what I am used to in Finnish rocking chairs. The finish is beautiful! I do appreciate all the work that is put into the chair.

Delivery company on the other hand was not that great. I was never contacted about the delivery time in advance. I got a call from the truck driver around 10am on Wednesday morning when he was trying to do the delivery and nobody was home. When I got home at noon I got the number of local company from the original shipper and they told me to deliver it again by 5pm. But it did not happen until 8pm. And again I was never contacted about the delay.

Thanks for the great piece of furniture you've made!

Wonderful rocker Gary! I spent my life as a potter in Stowe Vermont and I am very critical about hand crafted anything — You are the best I've ever come across and I thank you.

Well, the chair arrived yesterday. It is about as perfect as I could imagine. I rocked for hours yesterday feeling the silkiness of the wood in absolute awe of your magnificent artistry. In fact now my husband wants one and he isn't even a rocker! I am also contemplating getting the Otwell table in cherry and maybe the shorter Berry barstool stool as that might be great for playing my cello. Do you think it would be good for that? I need to sit forward to play. I love the simplicity of the chair. Maybe it comes in mesquite!! Watch out I might become a regular!!

Love, love , love your work!!!!!!!!

Happy that you and yours enjoy mine too . . . talk to you soon.

best,
I.
