Gary,

Thanks for checking back in. The rocker arrived fine, and I am enjoying it very much.

Thanks!
A.

Hey Gary, just wanted to let you know that 10 years and counting we're enjoying our wonderful rocker. We now live in Austin in a teeny tiny house with 3 kids and 2 dogs and still manage to find a spot for our beautiful rocking chair. Not a new face comes through our home without asking about it. Peace.

S.

Yes, it came at noon today. It's more beautiful than even the pictures conveyed — more figure than I could see in the photos. Super comfy!

Thanks Gary.
S.

Thanks.
My daughter loves it.

Gary,

DBSchenker delivered the chairs Friday. No problems at all! A couple of the hot-glued foam bumpers had fallen off in transit but everything was well packed and intact. My parents just came to visit and I think both of them covet the rocker. We're quite a mix of heights — my mother's feet are well off the floor when in the Williams chair and my father is almost 6 feet. But everyone wants to be in it. If you get another D. order soon, it's because this one arrived just in time!

The dining chairs are also surprisingly light! It was unexpected for such a solid feeling piece of furniture to move so easily.

I hope you and your family have a good Memorial day.

Hi Gary

I just received my chair. It looks BEAUTIFUL!
I'm glad it is home.
You are the "BEST"
We will send you a check for shipping.

Gratefully,
T.

Thanks for sending the repair kit. And after spending the last 15 years working with wood and appreciating its beauty, you have no idea how much I enjoy your rocker as well as appreciate the craftsmanship.

Take care,
C.

Thank you thank you thank you. What a beautiful mahogany rocking chair. So beautiful I don't think I want it outside on my porch! Exceeded my expectations.

I hope to be able to buy another one in the future.

My best to you . . .
S.

Gary,

It's done. We have made it. The rocker was delivered today and arrived in perfect shape. The freight office was curious, so inquisitive that the driver wanted to unpack to have a look.

I hope the message is spread.

I had to rob the bank to pay € 387. – Tax. So in sum the rocker amounted to € 2300.

The expectations were high. My wife and I were stunned about the beautiful craftsmanship and finish. The touch is almost erogenous. Many thanks to you and your team you introduced by your homepage.

I will report on further experiences in the future.

Thank you so much.

In appreciation
W.

The chair arrived just as we returned home from a ten day trip. Delivery went well, no concerns with the packaging and the chair sits fine. I sometimes walk out of my way just to look at it, pretty from any angle. Fit and finish are flawless.

Thanks
D.

Dear Gary,

Thank you for the repair kit for the rocker.

There was a lot more damage under the rockers than I thought. However, I did not try and eliminate all the marks. I figured they did not show and I was hesitant to do too much sanding because I thought it would make the chair unbalanced.

The end of the arm rest looks good as does the front of the rocker rail.

Thank you again for everything, including the support.
C.

Dear Gary,

R. and I want you to know how much we like our new dining room chairs, and how much we appreciate your work. The chairs are so comfortable that we can now enjoy leisurely meals and conversation around the table without having to get up due to soreness from sitting too long. And they are beautiful! The chairs are identical and each one is different. They look and feel the same, but variations in the wood grain give each one an individual character. So in addition to having great seating for us and our guests at dinnertime, we find we have added works of art to our home. The quality of design, craftsmanship, attention to detail and finishing that went into these chairs is apparent whether we are looking at them, sitting in them, or both. We expect they will become family heirlooms and be enjoyed by our successors for generations to come.

Thank you.
R. and J.

Gary

The rocker arrived today and it is beautiful, we are delighted with it. You can tell the quality of the wood and the workmanship. We will take some pictures over the weekend and send them to you.

Thanks a lot
S. and L.

I wanted to say that we enjoyed visiting with you and really appreciate your taking the time to show us around and to let me see your shop. I'm a tool guy and a big user of shop built jigs and I am really impressed with how you have adapted tools to your production process. But we love your art. You have studied wood properties and how they can best be used practically and efficiently to produce beautiful items that are comfortable and everyday usable. It's in the details, how it looks and feels from any vantage point and we know how much work goes into making that happen. We really look forward to having your rocker in our home.

D. and J.

Gary,

The rocker and stool are home and they are SPLENDID. Your workmanship is excellent and the chair is very attractive and comfortable. I am kind of afraid to leave it outdoors! Thanks so much, and I look forward to getting the table when it is ready.

Thank you.
J.

Hi Gary,

The rocker and stool arrived in perfect condition. They are both beautiful.

A. was born on April 1. She and I enjoy rocking in it each day. I look forward to using it for years to come. Thanks for making such beautiful pieces.

Cheers,
J.

Gary,

I am in Alaska for a couple of weeks so I haven't seen it yet but the chair did arrive and D. says that it is beautiful and sits like a dream. Thank you so much. I can't wait to see it.

Take care,
L.

The rocker and stool arrived in perfect condition — and both are beautiful! C. is out of town, but I can't wait for him to get home and see them. We should be ordering a second rocker soon, and I am looking longingly at other furniture in the catalog you sent.

Thank you,
W.

Hello Gary,

The rocker arrived this morning — it is so beautiful, and comfortable, and fits in perfectly with our existing furniture. Thank you so much. Not only is the rocker everything we hoped for, but working with you has been a real pleasure as well.

Take good care,
M.

with one gorgeous rocker. our shipment arrived to switzerland about a week ago, rocker in perfect condition. i may need a walnut companion for her in due time, but for now, i just wanted to let you know that all is well in nusshof, and thank you again.

best,
K.

Hi Gary,

I just want to second the comments from S. — the chair is amazingly comfortable, beautiful and well made. I think it makes a great guitar chair!

Regards,
B.

Dear Gary,

It arrived safely yesterday. The chair is beautiful and my husband absolutely loves it. He finds it extremely comfortable. Thank you for such an excellent product and for your great customer service!

S.

Good Morning Gary and Leslie,

Our Rocker came yesterday and it is absolutely beautiful, perfectly proportioned and soooo comforting. The driver from DB Schenker was careful when he lowered the crate out of the truck. He even helped to open up the top so I could check inside. Today I enjoyed my early morning cup of coffee gently rocking with our 19 year old cat D. sitting in my lap. B.'s looking forward to his turn . . .

Wishing you both, all your Family and Crew a fine holiday weekend.

Thanks again,
J.

Hi Gary,

The chairs arrived shortly after we arrived home, and we immediately unpacked them, and we love them! Particularly the rocker is just right and very comfortable. We mailed you a check yesterday so you should receive it soon.

Thank you again for your excellent work and friendly approach to doing business. We will certainly treasure these chairs for many years (and hopefully generations) to come.

Best wishes,
K.

Gary,

Approximately three or so years ago, I received a walnut rocker which you made for me in your shop. I have never gotten around to contacting you and expressing my unwavering delight with this beautiful rocker. It is, of course, optimally comfortable — comfortable for most anyone choosing to sit in it. I have difficulty sitting in the rocker, because I'd rather look at it, being the elegant, gorgeously crafted piece that it is. At any rate, Mr. Weeks, thank you for a wonderful addition to my home. I, along with my children, and grand children thank you.

R.

Garry,

It arrived undamaged yesterday afternoon. As advertised, it is a very sturdily built and nicely finished and quite a beautiful piece of work! It fits my 5'5" torso pretty well. It also fits my wife and daughter whom I had a hard time getting out of it so I could use it. My butt is small and w/o much padding and I find I am sore after spending an hour or so in it. I think I'll need a seat pad . . . do you have suggestions?

R.

Gary,

I just returned from G's house and I must say the rocker is beautiful and sits like a dream. What is amazing about the ergonomics is the chair fits G. – who is 6'-7" as well as L. – who is about 5' tall (Mutt and Jeff). That is truly a well designed chair. The finish is beautiful. I can say that the kids are so excited about their Rocker and for that I say thank you.

All the best . . .
B.H.

Gary,

Yes, it all arrived in great condition, and we're very pleased. Finally, we'll have plenty of room for big family gatherings. The second rocker is next to the first, facing west out of our big living room window, so my husband and I can watch sunsets together. The kitchen barstools are the most comfortable I've ever sat on.

K.

Hi Gary,

We are impressed by the beautiful craftsmanship of rocker and stool! My husband and I have enjoyed rocking our baby to sleep. The rocking chair is very comfortable!

Sincerely,
E. and S.

Hi, Gary.

The chair arrived today, is unpacked and found to be perfect.
Thank you very much.

Sincerely,
M.

rocker is drop dead gorgeous and in perfect condition. you're to thank in all the ways,

warmest,
k.

Thank you very much. As expected, it is beautiful, looks great in our new nursery, and I expect to do quite a bit of rocking in it very soon.

Best,
L.

Thanks for the follow-up email, Gary. The chair was delivered on Wednesday. They both like it. In fact, yesterday I got an email from my son-in-law who said, simply, "It is gorgeous. Thank you." And, so, thank YOU!

M.

Dear Gary & Austin,

Thank you for the follow up e-mail.

I love my rocker — it is the center piece of my main living room.

Also, wanted to let you know your catalog just arrived — very nice. It is put together beautifully and I will share with family and friends as I travel.

I appreciate your art and craftsmanship — I can not stop admiring my rocker. It is a joy to sit in.

Thanks for everything,
M.

Gary,

I wanted to let you know that we received the chair yesterday and it's spectacular!

The delivery person was professional, patient, and friendly. The chair is beautiful and extremely comfortable. Beth loves it. Thanks so much!

D.

The rocking chair arrived yesterday. As advertised, the chair is beautiful and very comfortable. I can't wait for the weekend when I will have some time to give it more attention.

R.

Austin, chairs are awesome and made for some fun on Christmas morning — my wife walked through the dinning rm a few times getting all things wonderful for our little girl then saw them — it was excellent — really appreciate your alls work and ethic — keep it up — would love to come by the shop for a coffee nxt time . . .

J.

PS: our house is my wife's painting show rm and to date one of the comments I always hear is wow who made the rocker . . . so I expect some wow who made the chairs. I will be sure to send u some orders!

Gary,

My boys and I LOVE the rocking chairs. Before my second son was born, my mom and I debated about whether or not she needed to buy me a second rocking chair. It's a good thing that she did because my almost four year old still loves to be rocked before naps and bed every day . . . both boys actually love rocking in their respective chairs by themselves too.

S.

Hey Gary:

Just wanted to let you know that my Christmas mahogany rocking chair is fantastic and I was quite surprised when it showed up at the house! I know you hear this all the time, but this is the most comfortable rocking chair I have ever sat on and the workmanship is outstanding. We will need some dining chairs in the future and yours will be at the top of our list. Also, I think that one of your side tables would be nice to have as I rock away . . . .

Thanks for a great chair and I hope you and yours have a very safe, happy and prosperous New Year.

Take care and best regards,
S.

The rocker arrived an hour ago and I have placed it in our living room. I appreciate the way you matched the grain in the arms of the rocker and the smooth finish of the wood. I know I'll enjoy it in my lifetime and hopefully if will stay in the family and be used long after I'm gone.

Thank you and Merry Christmas,
B.
A thing of beauty is a joy forever: Its loveliness increases; it will never Pass into nothingness; but still will keep A bower quiet for us, and a sleep Full of sweet dreams, and health and quiet breathing. Keats, Endymion Book I

Thank you Gary, and we wish you all a blessed Christmas. C.

Hi Gary

Your most amazing rocker just arrived and we are delighted. It is just remarkable how somebody can produce such perfection — don't think I have been this close to the concept before.

We are exhausted after a long day, and stayed up waiting on the customs clearance, the chair arriving at 10pm. We can't go to bed — can't stop running our hands over the grains and taking turns to sit in it.

Austin did a marvelous job with the inlay and the engraving — so rewarding. E. was speechless, still is. She is also blown away by it's magnificance and she just loves the Rimu inlay!!

I am genuinely humbled.

Thank you.

Kind regards
W.

Delivery went without a hitch. No box punctures; hard to puncture THAT box! The rocker looks and feels great, and my daughter agrees there's a much smaller chance I'll say something stupid when sitting in it. I hope you prosper; what you do is important. Very best of the holiday season to you and yours.

D.

Gary,

I got the chair earlier today in a torrential downpour. Before taking it off the truck, I wrapped it in a tarp. I was very pleased to see how well it was wrapped and how well the container was made. Despite all of the rain and despite the box getting wet some, the chair was in perfect condition and not wet at all. It is a beautiful chair! I will let you know tomorrow how my wife likes it, as I will present it to her when we get home from work today.

Thanks,C.

Good Morning Austin,

The rocker arrived yesterday! WOW — thank you so much. The kids were speachless and just love it. Ash called Alex who is in Iraq to tell him about it — they both were so touched. Ashley says it is absolutely beautiful and extremely comfortable. When I go out in a few weeks for the birth, will take photos and send.

Thank you so much for extreme attention to detail and shipping the rocker so quickly.

Merry Christmas!
L.

Gary,

The rocking chair arrived this afternoon in perfect condition. I think it's even more beautiful than the cherry rocker we bought two years ago. The grain is exceptional and shows some iridescence. The chair will be the perfect compliment to our sleeping porch! I'm writing this e-mail from the rocker right now. I may not get up for awhile. Can't wait to see the dining room table!

Gratefully yours,
T.

Thank you Gary !
S. loves his chair ! He said, it's everything he wanted !
Thank you so much !

B.

Gary, I just received it and all is beautiful! The delivery people called and kept in contact all day — it was dreadful traffic today in Miami with the VP here and freeways closed — poor guys, they were very careful and communicated with me.

The table is the perfect size for the area and the chairs and the table are pieces of art — however, the rocker beats all!! I love it — thank you for such wonderful and comfortable work.

Take care. And thank you again.
K.

Hello Gary,

We received the (very well packed!) delivery yesterday, and spent the rest of the evening confirming its great comfort. I knew the chair was going to be lovely, but it really took my breath away when we unpacked it. I'd like to thank you for the wonderful craftsmanship and attention to detail, and the excellent customer service.

Please pass our thanks along to your entire team for their amazing work.

Warm regards,
E.

She loves the chair. Thanks for quick delivery.

S.
