Oh my goodness . . . The most beautiful rocking chair I have ever seen arrived today.

Thank you Dad for your generosity and thank you Gary for your talent and passion!

M.

We love our new chair and can't wait for the next two! Thank you.

L. & D.

Gary,

You are quite welcome, and many thanks to you for such fine work on the chair. I spent quite a bit of time in the chair this weekend for some mandatory baby book reading and it's fantastic.

The attention to detail on all of the aspects of the chair are second to none, so now I've got a high bar to contend with once my woodworking is underway.

I'll keep in touch and let you know how things are progressing.

Sincerely,
A. & B.

Gary — To say, 'she loves the rocker', is an understatment — thanks so much . . .

G.

Gary,

It is always a pleasure writing you a check for the privilege of enjoying your craftsmanship.

T.

. . . I picked it up Sat afternoon, then put it to immediate use when we had company Sunday evening. Thank you so much for the good work, the stool isn't just pretty, everyone who sits in it comments how comfortable it is, too. I will be recommending you if anyone needs chairs or tables.

Yours,
B.

Thank you — We received the footstool and love it too! We are consistently pleased with your fine craftmanship! Enjoying both now while we wait for the Grand Baby!

Thanks again.
G.

Gary and Leslie,

. . . Testimonial — I twanged a nerve in my back and leg, and the only chair I find comfortable is my Weeks Rocker. You can add that to the website.

Gary —

She loved the chair — what made it even nicer was on Christmas nite when our visiting 6 month old (newest) granddaughter got a bit tired and she was rocked to sleep in the midst of the ongoing Christmas chaos — thank you!

G. & L.

Gary —

Happy New Year!! The chair is perfect and a huge hit!! It exceeded all expectations.

Looking forward to the stool.

My complements to you shipper too, I was impressed with how well it was packed.

Happy Holidays!

Hi Gary,

We received the rocker and it now graces our home. I consider it a work of art.

Happy New Year,
the K's.

The chair is here in our condo in NC. It is beautiful.

Thanks so much
G. and V.

Hi Gary,

Omissions of communication during holy days and holidays never require excuses. My wife and I love the cherry rocker and stool. You charge far too little for the work — it sits impressively next to our other very well made furniture.

A review in greater depth will come in the next few weeks after we attempt to rock the eventual new addition to the family to sleep.

Best regards to the Weeks family and Happy New Year,
C.

Hi Gary! Almost merry Christmas!! Love, love love the furniture!!! The rocking chair is amazing and the cello stool is really comfortable and of course everything else is wonderful too.

Best,
L.

Gary, the rocking chair arrived about 5 our time last night in perfect condition. Everyone is delighted. It is such a handsome piece of craftsmanship. Thank you for your help. I was surprised to find the flexible material on the bottom of the rockers. A nice addition. It will protect the wood floors and be very quiet. Merry Christmas! You certainly made one here.

Thanks again.
J. and B.

Hi Gary,

Our furniture was delivered tonight around 6:30pm. Wow, we are so pleased.
Your craftsmanship is impeccable. I am especially pleased with the design. The table has beautiful simple curves that go so well with its strong well-proportioned structure. Denice said it was all so beautiful and far better than she expected. She also feels the chairs are "just perfect" too. You are an artist and your commitment to perfection shows. Thank you for taking that extra time to achieve it.

I do have one question about maintenance. Will the table and chairs occasionally need an application of oil? Do you recommend a particular product?

J. and D.

Thank you so much — We did receive the BEAUTIFUL rocking chair and it came in perfect condition. It is everything I had hoped for, and a beautiful addition to our home as we await the first Grand Baby! Now we would like to order the footstool, as Grandpa looks forward to napping in the super comfortable chair. (And that says a lot — to get him out of his recliner!)
You have been so delightful to work with, and I can see and appreciate how much love and care go into your workmanship. We are true fans! I will call during work hours tomorrow to order the cherry footstool. Thank you again!

V.

Gary,

Thanks for not only your amazing workmanship (I know it is a team effort!), but also for the outstanding hospitality!! I really appreciate folks who will take the time to show off their work centers and are proud of the work they do. Your team all seems really happy and proud of producing amazingly beautiful furniture.

Hope you and your staff have a wonderful Christmas season.

Blessings and peace!

B.

It arrived Wednesday. Comfortable and elegant, it exceeded my expectations.
The pictures didn't do it justice. It looks great next to the fireplace.
Thanks for all.

M.

It's arrived and perfect and beautiful!!!!

I will think of you every day. My desk actually faces out into a garden — I am so lucky. Thank you again! All my best.

L.

Yes I got it delivered yesterday. I am very happy with the set. My husband thinks its very nice too and comfortable. My daughter loves it too.

. . .

It is a beautiful addition to my kitchen.
Thank you for your attention to details not only in your woodworking but also your customer service.

B.

Hi Gary,

We do indeed have the chair! It's beautiful and so comfortable!

My husband is in love for the second time. Haha! I think if he could sit in that chair all day he would be the happiest man in the world . . .

We're both looking forward to having our little girl here and sitting with her in the rocker.

Thanks again for the wonderful service and of course this beautiful chair.

Sincerely,
T.

Gary,

We arrived home early this afternoon . . . and it was such a treat to see the dining room furniture. It is just perfect and looks wonderful in our new house. Thank you again.

J.

Hi Gary. Thanks for the personal check-in. I've been enjoying my chair very much so far. I find it comfortable and enjoy the comfort of rocking while I'm working. Many of my patients have complimented it as well. I feel like I'm still getting used to the feel of the chair overall, so am curious to see how my body feels after using it for a couple of weeks. The delivery people were great, by the way, working with my "doctor's office with no assistant" schedule. The only complaint I have, and it's a little one, is that the chair has a bit of an unpleasant smell. It's not strong at all and I assume it may be from the stains used, so it will likely dissipate.

My plan is to order a matching one in the next several months but need to pay off this one first.

Thanks again,
J.

I have the chair, and I am very pleased, not only with the comfort of the chair, but also with the aesthetics of it. In terms of visual aesthetics, the chair is pleasing to the eye in that it is simple and sinuous in a zen-like way. In terms of tactile aesthetics, the sensation of running one's hands over the arms and curves of the chair is one of great satisfaction.

Thank you.
C.

Hi Gary,

Our Rocker arrived on schedule in flawless condition. The packing preformed as expected, no damage what-so-ever. Be assured both my wife and I are completely happy with the Rocker and expect it to provide countless hours of comfortable leisure time. I may be ordering a foot stool in the near future but haven't decided at this point if I need that addition. From time to time as I relax in this finely crafted chair I have flashbacks to our visit to your shop. Thanks again for taking time to show us around. This is one transaction I'll remember as receiving my monies worth. If I may be so bold, may I suggest you modify your title to "Fine Furnituremakers" ?

From the Show-Me-State,
E.

Gary —

All look great. Sorry I didn't tell you, but they're covered with quilts as the last bit of work is done. Thanks for your patience.
Beautiful functional art.

Gary —

The table and chairs are absolutely beautiful! We look forward to having wonderful family togetherness around this table. I have a new set of white porcelain dishes befitting such fine furniture. We'll send a picture of your work in place in the new home when it is finished. Thanks for your patience and understanding about delivery time. We saw your work in Winedale many years ago and now we can look at it every day! Thanks.

L.

Dear Mr Gary Weeks,

Thank you so much for the beautiful rocking chair made for our son and daughter in law in San Antonio, Texas!

Every part of ordering the rocking chair, from starting the chair order on line to the delivery of the chair could not have gone more smoothly!! Your help is greatly appreciated and your company's service is unmatched by others ! In today's world it is refreshing to work with a company such as yours!

Again, thanks for your expert workmanship, the chair is SO beautiful ! Thanks for your service unmatched by others! Thanks for the extra care I know you took to make sure my order was made perfect and thanks for how delivery people took extra care to deliver chair on time and in perfect condition!

Warmly,

Bars stools arrived. Gorgeous! Already received lots of compliments. Thanks to all involved in making them.

J.

Gary

We are delighted with the table and chairs. The quality and craftsmanship is simply stunning.

It is wonderful ! We are very happy!

R. and M.

Gary,

Appreciate the note. Glad to hear you took some time off.

The chair we received was fantastic and well received by the retiring associate. Austin communicated timing and we were very satisfied by the service.

Look forward to many more to thank our employees for their commitment to our organization.

Regards,
J.

Hey Gary,

I'm glad to hear that you were able to take some time off. I love the rockers! Thank you for following up.

E.

Everything got here just fine as expected. We are satisfied customers!

P.

Gary:

Thanks for your email. Yes, the rocker and footstool arrived on Tuesday. The furniture is beautiful, comfortable, and everything we had hoped for. We are really enjoying it!

Thanks for following-up.

Best regards,
G.

Gary,

Thanks. She was thrilled. Thank you for accommodating my schedule. We are enjoying an elegant rocking chair!

R.

Dear Gary and Company,

The table, chairs, and barstools are absolutely beautiful! The "custom" Paschall Table met and exceeded our expectations for an artfully crafted, unique, comfortable, and substantial presence in our new kitchen.

Gary —

S.'s curly maple rocker arrived yesterday afternoon in good order and has been under commission since. If I could change one thing about it, I wouldn't, because it's genuinely perfect. The joinery, finish, and balance are all superb. Most of the highly sculpted rocking chairs I've seen seem frail, too overly wrought and unappealing in their oddness. There's nothing delicate about the build of this chair and it has just enough traditional elements to make it classic.

Can you make another in curly walnut? I will call next week.

Thanks again —
B.

Gary,

By yesterday at 4:30pm I had not heard a word from them so I used the numbers you gave me to contact them and bingo — they made it happen! My Weeks Rocker arrived at 7pm and J. and I were able to get it out of the crate . . . with a little patience and lots of careful maneuvering. I sat in it all through the Democratic Convention and was a happy camper. Tonight we are inviting friends and our daughter/son in law over for 'grilling and rocking' . . . Can't wait to show it off and share a rock.

We are happy customers and will gladly tell the story of Weeks Rockers and encourage others to make the investment. Now we have a grandchild coming in March, so the rocker has taken on new meaning beyond my retirement! Tell your team they do great work and we are very pleased and proud to own one. It felt like velvet when I felt the arms of the rocker, and my feet perfectly touch the floor. I'm 5'4" and that is always an issue for me.

Hope to see your place one day while in Austin,
C.

Dear Gary:

This is to let you know that your beautiful furniture finally found its way to its new home.

It looks gorgeous: BRAVO!

Thanks and Best
S.

Hi Gary,

I got it Wednesday and am sitting in it now. It is beautiful to look at and comfortable, too. It arrived safely and I am enjoying it.

Thanks,
N.

Thank you, they are very well crafted. She will love them.

M.

Gary — it was delivered just before our vacation, which we are on now. It is fabulous. Thank you

A.

Gary,

The rocker arrived yesterday, unharmed from its long journey from Texas. Even the box it was shipped in looked good: Some child, either at your end or en route, decorated the box with crayon drawings of a butterfly and a ladder!

The rocker looks great in our 1850 schoolhouse home, and the pleasure I get from sitting in it is almost embarrassing. The wood is so sensuous to touch, and I sit transfixed by the little "flaws" in the grain, which stare back at me like little eyes. For me, sitting in it is both relaxing and energizing. I can lean my head against the back and hold a cup of coffee in my lap, the chair arms beveled perfectly for that restful position, but soon I find that I'm rocking slightly, and that gets me to thinking . . . and then to a sense of "OK, there's work to be done." Even a little rocking energizes my legs.

We're going to have a bunch of visitors today, and I can't wait to have them "have a sit."

You've created a beautiful piece of work that I am grateful to own.

D.

Gary,

I just wanted you to know that my family, friends and I have derived great pleasure and satisfaction from the beauty and fine craftsmanship of the table and chairs that you made for us. Dealing with you was an enjoyable and memorable experience. I proudly refer people who ask about your work to my friend in Texas who made them for me.

S.

Gary — Rocker arrived yesterday afternoon in perfect condition and it is great. A couple hick-ups with the delivery people but a little communication got it worked out. Thanks for a great chair and the great service.

J.

hi gary, well i have my beautiful rocker & its everything that you said it would be !!!! love it !!!

D.

Gary,

Rocker arrived safely this morning. I love it, absolutely beautiful! It fits me perfectly. The whole process from order to actually sitting in my chair has exceeded my expectations.

Thanks so much,
R.

We received the maple rocker on Friday. It is both a museum piece and a perfectly functional piece of furniture. Thanks! One note. While this rocker was not harmed (a slight roughness on the bottom of one rocker in a short stretch), the bubble wrap had worn through at the very bottom of the chair and the wood of the rocker had been rubbing on the cardboard. No problem for us, but I wanted you to know. The outside of the box was perfect. Thanks again.

J.

Hi Gary,

YES! We have received the rocking chair! We love it! As promised, it is the most comfortable rocker we've ever sat in. And besides that, it's beautiful!

We have no idea how you can make a rocking chair with measurements to please everyone — but you have — and we are grateful!

I am sitting in the rocking chair as I write this message! We are very excited about the baby arriving in a few weeks — the baby already seems to like the chair. As soon as E. gets up from rocking, the baby starts bumping around.

Thank you!
N. and E.

P.S. There was some lovely artwork on the box. We enjoyed the pink castle and ? battle ? — there seemed to be a bow and arrow involved. Do all shipments come with complimentary artwork? :)
