Hi Gary,

My wife received it and unpacked it. She says it’s nice and comfortable. Thanks!

S.

Dear Gary

We have received the chair and stool, both are intact and look completely magnificent.
Thank you for your craftsmanship!

A.

Gary,

We received the chair and it’s great. Thanks very much. I wish I could afford another one so I don’t have to steal the wife’s birthday gift. The box/crate arrived in perfect condition.

B.

Gary,

The rocking chairs and table arrived this morning for the S. project. They are beautiful and the client loves them. Great job . . . and the curly maple wood is fabulous!

B.

Gary,

Another magnificent piece of furniture, many thanks. The rocker and stool were delivered to my home today, my mother's birthday, and I have talked to her and then sent pictures late tonight.

I had told her only that I had something special for her, so I'm sure she will be as surprised as anyone when she reads the overnight email I sent just an hour ago (I didn't get home from work until after 10pm).

When I spoke to her and did not let on what it was, she was a bit concerned and asked: "Is it alive?" Not sure why she thought I would even consider buying her an animal, other than that I have two cats. Well, the wood is almost alive, but no, I assured her, she won't have to feed it!

I'll be sure to let you know the reaction. Find attached one of the pictures of the rocker in my hallway that I sent to mum.

Regards,
G.

Gary —

Thank you very much for the rocker. It is the best "Nana" chair ever!

D.

Got them. They are beautiful. Thank you so much!

L.

Gary,

She definitely loves it. Thanks for making such a beautiful chair.

J.

Hi Gary, the chair arrived and we love it! Your craftsmanship is so beautiful, and it arrived in perfect condition — thank you so much for packing it so securely. We will enjoy this rocker for years to come.

Take care!
S.

Gary,

I received the furniture yesterday. Every piece was perfect. I know we will enjoy and treasure the furniture for our lifetime. It is something that our children will be able to keep in the family. Thanks again.

D.

Dear Gary,

Yes I did receive my rocker and it is beautiful. The joinery is amazing. I am a dentist and precision fit is something I deal with on a daily basis. When I see the quality of your work it makes me proud to own something that was made by hand and done in a fashion that shows there are still craftsmen in America. I will treasure it always and pass it on to the next generation when my rocking days are through. The fit of the back rest could not be better unless you had made an impression of my back. Thank you and your entire crew for caring about what you do.

Warmest regards,
S., DDS

Good Morning Gary,

. . . We postponed dinner until the boxes were unwrapped (Superb packing job!). After dinner, we just rocked the night away! Thanks so much for your personable and professional guidance through every aspect of this purchase! We also want you to know that one unforeseen advantage of buying Weeks Rockers and Harris Stools for both of us is that as we are rocking we can look over each other's chair + stool and still enjoy the visual experience of Weeks Furnituremakers craftsmanship!

Well, I could go on & on with kudos for your design capabilities, wood selection and attention to detail! Yet I have to step away from this terminal now and head to town.

Sorry not to have written last night . . . We were unable to extricate ourselves from our wonderful new chairs . . .

Rock on!
M.

Dear Mr. Weeks,

They did indeed receive the rocker. We received a delightful voice mail from K. where she said it was so pretty and comfortable and we had to come up to see it as soon as possible. She said we had to plant our butts in it and see how good it felt. We can’t wait to see it!

Thanks again — it’s been a real pleasure to do business with you.

Sincerely,
A.

hey gary,

thanks for the e-m. yes . . . L. has arrived and she is a delight. she and C. are doing very well. the rocker is working out even better than expected . . . we love it. it is smooth rocking and very comfortable. i honestly can't imaging being a father without this chair. thanks for making it easier for us to better nurture our daughter.

thanks again for the e-m and hope all is well in the hill country,
J.

Dear Gary,

Our first son, R., was born on July 23 in Dallas. Already he is enjoying the pleasures of being rocked to sleep in our beautiful new Weeks rocker. It’s the perfect height for anyone who wants to hold and cuddle him and comfortable for the duration of long rocking sessions! We’ll send you a photograph as soon as we sort through the dozens taken since R. joined this world.

Thank you again for your wonderful craftsmanship. D. and I consider ourselves mere caretakers of a beautiful piece that others will enjoy for generations to come.

All best wishes,
A.

Gary

The rocker, stool and table arrived on Tuesday and we are absolutely delighted with them. M. has always wanted a rocker and never dreamt she would have such a fine rocker as the one you and your team crafted for her.

The whole process, from start to finish, has been a joy and our beautiful furniture will be treasured by the S. family for generations to come. I can’t thank you and your team enough.

As of now the rocker is sat in the living room overlooking the marina and looks unlikely to make it to the nursery — don’t be surprised if you receive another order before very long!

My sincere thanks and very best wishes
P.

ps your packaging is fantastic!

Gary -

The chairs did arrive and we are so happy with them. Having visited you, I knew what to expect; B. accepting my choice is so pleased with the workmanship and design. We will send you a picture of them in their new home, they really look nice. We are having my dad and my uncle over for lunch tomorrow to inaugurate them. The design is perfect for our little house and lifestyle.

Thank you once again for your good work and all your help in building and getting the chairs to our home.

All the best to you, your family and your crew.
J. and B.

Gary,

They delivered my rocker about 2:00 P.M. on Friday the 24th. The Rocker made the trip without any problems.

I must confess, I was like a little boy at Christmas time, full of excitement and unbelievable expectations. It felt great, I could hardly contain myself. With great speed and caution I immediately uncrated the box and removed the wrapping. I just sat down and admired this beautiful work of art. To think there is still a remnant of such craftsmanship still around. I feel so honored you have shared this masterpiece with me.

Also, I must inject at this time, the comfort of this rocker is just outstanding. Again, it images the rare craftsmanship displayed in your work.

The rocker is absolutely beautiful in my Den. It has added a new life and warmth which is hard to explain.

These words of appreciation are spoken from my heart.

May God bless you and your family in the days ahead.

J.

Dear Weeks Family,

Thank you for the hard work I am sure you put into my rocker. I especially want to thank Mr. Weeks for coming out during y'alls Fourth of July celebration so that we could pick up our chair. He seemed very concerned about our traveling plans, but I would like him to know his knots were secure the whole way and my husband and I made it home and had the chair inside just seconds before the rain we had been expecting all day hit town. My family was very impressed with the chair and all commented on how blessed I was to have gotten one. Again thank you for all your work.

Best Wishes,
J.

Gary,

On behalf of C. and myself, this is to inform you that the chair arrived here safe and sound about half an hour ago. It is sitting in our living room to compliment the other one. The package came though very well (without the slightest damage) and the chair is beautiful (a little darker than the one we have though they will age together well).

Thanks for your attention and the workmanship you do.

Sincerely,
F.W.

Thank you. She likes the chair, it fits well, and said it "makes me feel maternal".

J.

Dear Gary and family,

Thank you so much for the rocker. We received it today in an unscarred crate and it is beautiful. We're very pleased with it and have no doubt that we'll cherish it for a very, very long time. What a beautiful work of art and what talented, perfected craftmanship.

Thank you,
K.Q., T.W. and L.Q.W.

Dear Gary,

The rockers and table arrived yesterday afternoon. The rocker is very comfortable.

We do have one problem though in that the color does not match the other cherry furniture that we just purchased. I believe your rocker is natural color and the other new furniture has a reddish stain. Can anything be done to make them match?

L.H.

happy birthday!!! thanks for the chair!!! i love it, fits me perfectly. i look forward to collecting more of your pieces of art work. thank you again,

S.M.

Aubrey,

Thanks for your message. You were indeed correct — and right on schedule! We received the rocking chair this morning and have been sitting in it all night. It is really, really beautiful. Thank you so much!

Best regards,
B.R.

Gary,

The rocker arrived in perfect condition, it’s beautiful and comfortable. A leap of faith maybe, but your web site is so well done that what we've received is exactly what we ordered. The bonus is the fit and finish which is best appreciated by touch. I will not hesitate to recommend you when my friends admire your work.

I can’t wait to rock our Grandson,

M.G.

Gary: The rocker was delivered this afternoon and it is beautiful and arrived in perfect condition. Our hats are off to you, your son and all your workers — what a great job you do and certainly it will become a family heirloom.

J. and P.G.

He loved it! And it is beautiful. Thank you very much. It is inside now. Can those rockers be put outside?

M.S.

Dear Gary,

The chair arrived in great shape and is indeed the most comfortable rocker I’ve ever sat in.

Thank you,
G.R.

Hello Gary –

The chair has arrived! The delivery company did a great job — they called yesterday and gave me a 2-hour delivery window; they showed up at the beginning of that window. The package appeared completely unmolested, and the contents (chair and footstool) look perfect.

Little H. was a bit impatient to arrive; his due date was April 5, but he was born on April 2, so he's one week old today. K. is still asleep, trying to catch up after a long night, so she has not yet seen the chair, but I'm sure she will love it. I'll try to get a picture of mother and babe in the chair when the opportunity arises.

Thank you very much for your flexibility in finding a solution when our original specification proved problematic. I'm sure the chair and stool will be family heirlooms handed down from generation to generation.

S. and K.B.

Thanks! The chair is gorgeous . . . the pictures don't even do it justice! We're looking forward to many years of rocking!

C.S.

Gary,

Received the stools and rocker on Monday, as you discovered. Stools are unpacked and sitting at my counter. After the rest of my counter top is installed on Monday, I will be enjoying my morning coffee from one. I partially unpacked the rocker, enough to sit in it and rock, but left most of the bubble wrap around the base as I want to cover it up if anyone is working nearby. I am thrilled with all of the furniture.

Thanks
A.H.

Hey Gary,

I received the rocker. It is beautiful. My boyfriend loves it!

Thanks for everything.
J.S.

Gary,

Got the chair allright, and it's beautiful. No scratches, no blemish of any kind. I appreciate your checking up on it, and you can be sure that if we are ever in need (or want) of another rocking chair, we'll be calling you.

Thanks again for a wonderful product,
K.K.

Hello Aubrey and Gary from Nantucket!

Our new rocker and table have arrived safely. We have uncrated, and Frank is merrily rocking away as I write this.

Thank you for fashioning this truly exquisite furniture. We will treasure it.

Warm Regards,
C.W.

The chair arrived in perfect condition. We love it — it is beautiful and everyone that sits in it finds it very comfortable.

Your team has been very professional and great to work with.

I still would love to have the mesquite weeks rocker. Maybe someday . . .

Thanks
D.R.

Gary,

A long overdue follow, we love the chair, right size, comfortable, very well built and stylish, next on my list is a table from you!

Thanks
D.A.

Gary, I LOVE my rocker!!! I have been on the phone all day inviting people to come over to sit in it.

I was worried that it might not get here in time. I called the delivery people and they said Friday. Then day before yesterday, I was shopping and I got the call. It was at my door. I was at first annoyed because nobody told me about the change, but he waited and was so nice about it . . . and then when I opened that box . . .

No surprise. I knew it would be beautiful. But when I sat in it, it was like it was made for me. I wanted to cancel everything else I had going and just rock.

Thank you for making these terrific chairs, Gary. I've always believed that art should be functional. You prove that the functional can be art.

I might even share with guests. If they're nice.

Thank you. I will cherish it forever and give it to my new grand daughter as a wedding gift.

All the best to you and your talented family.
S.R.

The rocker is beautiful, I know we will enjoy it.

Thank you,
S.B.

Chair arrived today in pristine condition. It exceeds all of my expectations and you should be hearing from it's new owner soon.

R.P.

To the Weeks Family and organization,

I took possession of Rocker #1753 in mid 2007. The rocker was impressive then and has improved over time. The workmanship is beyond enviable. It has survived the repeated assaults of my teenage son and his friends. I feel as though my rocker has adjusted to my body, or maybe vice versa, to the betterment of both. I can honestly say that it is my only material possession that I would grieve the loss of. Its true value far exceeds the purchase price.

Thank you,
S.G.

Dear Gary,

We received the rocker yesterday — in perfect condition. It is absolutely gorgeous! The expert craftsmanship is clear, and the monogramming really makes it special. Thank you!

Now, we can’t wait for our new baby to be born, so that we can put the chair to good use! Thank you again!

J.C.

Gary —

Our rocker arrived yesterday in perfect condition. As soon as it was out of the box my three year old asked to be rocked. The chair is more beautiful than expected and all that was promised about comfort is true. I enjoyed an evening rocking while my three other children had a glorious time with the giant box it came in. Thanks again — it is a pleasure to own something so nice.

J.

I have not seen it yet but my kids raved about it. Thank you for great customer service. I have already recommended it to several people.

D.H.

Gary:

First, if I were to inform you that the rocker arrived but was a debacle of kindling with really nothing left to return, would you send me a new one with no questions asked? If that be the case, that's my story and I'm sticking to it. Disregard the following.

We received the rocker in excellent shape on the 10th of December. I placed it in our living room and four days later my beloved discovered it — finally! That is less a comment on her powers of observation and more of a comment that our lives have been a bit hectic. I now find her sitting in it, rocking, with what I can only describe as a slightly goofy grin on her face. I believe that she likes it.

I must tell you that it is rare in my experience to find excellent artistic ability combined with superb craftsmanship and we couldn't be more pleased with the rocker, in spite of the fact that it was made with firewood. Thank you. It will be an heirloom to be passed on to the next generation.

Happy Holidays. I look forward to hearing from you. And if the first paragraph applies, please disregard the rest of this missive.

M.V.

Gary,

Yes, the chair arrived safe & sound. I was really impressed with the crating. It is absolutely beautiful, we love it.

Sincerely,
B.F.

Hi,

My rocking chair came today and I am writing to say how handsome it is. I had asked Gary to pick out one with as much grain as possible, and the one that I got looked even better than I had hoped for.

Happy holidays for all of you,
J.G.

Dear Gary,

The chair is very well made and the customer service was beautiful. Admirable!

Thank you so much,
E.H.

Hello Mr Weeks and Company,

I just wanted to let you know that we got the chair and it's beautiful.

My wife hasn't seen your website, but her comments echo what others have already said:

"It's beautiful"
"A work of art"
"Looks like it belongs in a museum"

She especially made me smile when she sat in the chair and said, "It fits me so nice, is this made for short people?"

It felt great to give this to her from the whole family. Thanks for your quick, professional, and beautiful work!

Best Regards,
C.B.

Aubrey:

Our rocking chair arrived yesterday in great shape and we love it. Your craftsmanship is like a work of art. We hope to enjoy it for many years and pass it on to our children.

Thank you for your wonderful workmanship and customer service.
B.G.
