Category: Rocking Chair - As a Gift

Nineteen years ago, I received a cherry Weeks Rocker as a gift when my youngest was born. Unsurprisingly, it has become my most cherished piece of furniture, and the one most admired by others who visit my home. I have long wanted to add a matching footstool to it, and the time has come!
Kind regards, L.

Both rockers were received. They were sent to two colleagues who retired and both were very pleased with the quality and thoughtfulness of the gift.

This is the second time I have placed an order with you and once again your communication and craftsmanship was outstanding!

Thank you.
D.

I did receive it. It is incredible. Thank you so much, can’t wait for another occasion/excuse to gift another.
Gratefully,

K

Hi Gary,
My son said they absolutely love the rocker! Thanks so very much for everything.

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.

Hi Gary!

Thank you for your lovely note, from one grandparent to another. :)

I am feeling proud of myself as a grandmother for purchasing a Weeks Rocker for my daughter L. and her husband A. to celebrate the birth of their first child. What a perfect idea for us to give them that rocking chair, and what a spectacular job you and your team did creating it! It's truly amazing--a beautiful, functional centerpiece in their home. Whenever I head over to their house to wallow in my grandma role, I spend nearly the entire visit sitting in that lovely, comfortable rocker. And I hear that when I'm not there hogging it, it is enjoyed by L. and A. and Baby H. almost continuously.

A couple of weeks after H. was born, her other grandparents (A.'s parents) came out from South Dakota to visit and meet her. L. said the VERY first words uttered upon their arrival, walking into the house, were by A.'s dad (an artist), who gasped and exclaimed, "Oh my gosh, WHERE did you get that CHAIR? I have never seen anything so well made. It's truly a work of art.” ... and for the duration of their 4-day visit they were rocking H. in it, taking turns.

Please share our grateful story with your team. I'm sure one of the wonderful aspects of working at Gary Weeks & Company is the opportunity to make beautiful things for real people who treasure them every single day, which we absolutely do. Thank you all

Best regards,
K.

Dear Gary Weeks,

The chair arrived yesterday in perfect condition. It is absolutely beautiful! It is hands down the finest thing in our little house. Your craftsmanship is amazing and you have created the rocker to cradle adult humans so very comfortably. And it feels wonderful to the touch! That raises my only question. I trust you hand-rubbed it with oil. In the event that I spill something on it, how should I clean it?

I am over the moon that D. thought to order this rocker for me as a gift...

Gratefully,
K.

The footstool arrived this afternoon! T. was stunned, and so very happy to have it! He put it into immediate use as he was already sitting in the rocker. So comfortable!! It also looks absolutely wonderful with the rocker. We are both thrilled! So very grateful that you were able to fill my order in such a timely manner and managed to have the new footstool delivered in time for his birthday.

With appreciation,
K.

I can't tell you how he loved this chair. He was "blown away". He said "this is the most comfortable chair I have ever sat in." I know he will spend many happy moments in this chair reading. You are a blessing, and your talents are so very much appreciated. Thank you for making this happen today.

Gary,

Just wanted to let you know that K. received her Rocker yesterday. The piece was safely delivered and opened without incident (K. said the trucking company complemented the quality of the packing crate).

K. is absolutely thrilled with the finished product. She sent a number of pictures, and I have to say the workmanship on the piece is just fantastic. I just know that this gift will be well used and appreciated for many, many years.

Thank you and your team so much for putting together such a special piece of furniture. I have already hinted to my team that when I eventually retire, they will not go wrong if I happened to get a similar gift!

Best regards,

S.
