Austin, Just wanted to let you know the breakfast table and chairs were delivered yesterday and everything was perfect. The table and chairs are beautiful and we are very pleased with the quality and craftsmanship of this furniture; it’s every bit as good as the T.Moser dining room set we own. Please let your entire team know that they did an outstanding job. Thank you again.

Hi Austin,
The chairs are literally the favorite things in my house right now. They turned out so well. The finish on the wood is impeccable and they are so comfortable to sit on.

Thanks,N

Dear Gary,
…It was so wonderful seeing your shop…
Every piece you lovingly create has touched the earth in a profound way. The wood has been caressed by the wind, washed with the rain, traveled on by insects, supported nests, sung to by birds and crickets and smiled on by God. It traveled a lifetime to be enjoyed by you to become a part of countless memories in people’s homes. Parents rocking their newborns, seniors reminiscing their life while rocking and families gathered together at mealtime sharing life.
WOW! I truly love what you do!God bless you, your family and your business.

Hi Autumn/All:
We received the side table today. The order is complete and in good condition.
It's very functional but it's also art. The rocker set "makes" our guest room. The workmanship is incredible. We'll enjoy them, I guess forever.
I'll send folks your way as they see it.
Regards,
A…

Carried a magazine clipping of your Rocker in my wallet for several years. In 2004 my first grandson was on the way so I pulled out the clipping and ordered a Walnut Rocker. Grandson leaves for college at University of Tennessee next month. Still love that Rocker.

Dear Mr. Weeks:

It was great speaking with you.

As I mentioned in our conversation, a number of my friends found the rocking chair that I purchased from you so comfortable, they asked me to leave them the chair in my last will and testament— which I indeed did for one lucky heir-to-be.

And thanks again for letting me know should you ever produce a reclining model of that chair.

Sincerely yours,

R.O.

Hi, I just wanted you folks to know again how much V. and I really like this rocker. It is a beautiful piece of furniture. Thank you very much. The other thing again is the shipping box. That's an amazing piece of corrugated engineering.

D.B.

We received the chair and are extremely happy.
We ordered this without ever sitting in your rocker.
From the very second you sit in the rocker, it transports you into a realm of comfort that should not technically be possible from wood. Within minutes you become one with the rocker as you feel stress melt away.
We did not expect the potential health benifits that this chair brings by unwinding stress!
This rocker is a true modern day masterpiece.
If you are on the fence and wondering if this chair may be right for you, do yourself a favor and pull the trigger. We looked at it for years and now wish we did it sooner. If you do, it will be the best thing you'll do for yourself this year.
O.
P.s. you can use that for your testimonials if you want.

Wow. Another beautiful rocker !!!
My daughter LOVES it !!
Thank you so much. It is good to know that quality workmanship is still alive in the USA.
Thanks.

Hi Gary!
I sent a message yesterday saying how thrilled I was with my rocker and footstool. It’s by far the most beautiful rocker I have ever seen and incredibly comfortable. I can’t wait to get my side table!

Dear “All who make this possible”
We just received our second shipment of dining room chairs, the first shipment being about a year ago. They are wonderful, along with the maple rocker we purchased last year.
My thanks and appreciation are directed at all involved in making such consistently beautiful creations. I speak as a retired farmer who knows the challenges of running a business as well as a beginning woodworker who know the challenges making something that I a proud to have in my house that has no screws holding it together!
Here is a list of my thanks, please let all the ones who had a part in the process know of my love for the excellence of their work.
Design beauty, flowing lines strength functionality
Wood storage all the difficulty involved
Wood selection and cutting for best appearance
The Shop, machines buildings maintained, and safety dust control
Consistency in parts matching
Skills at band saw, courage at table saw
Joinery amazing shoulder and dowel work
Gluing never a crack
Finish sanding and coats of finish, spotless
Care in handling, a ding at the end ruins a lot of work, as I know!
Culture of excellence requires skilled management and dedicated employees
Family continuity a tribute to family dynamics
Packaging
Great office correspondence
I feel love in your work.
I know I have missed someone, I apologize for that.
How we do what we do really does matter.
Yours,
L. B.

Thank you Gary. The rocker is great. I’m having a hard time sharing it with my family. Proud to be a Gary Weeks Rocker owner.
M.T.

Yes, they arrived and we are IN LOVE! Most comfortable rocking chair we have ever sat in and all of the pieces are just BEAUTIFUL!
B.C.

We love it, thanks! We are expecting our first baby in August, and are looking forward to rocking her to sleep!
D.

Thank you, that means a lot. I love my rocker!
Sincerely,P.D.

Gary, The rocker has been successfully delivered and is used daily. Our little one arrived 04/03 so it was at the house when we got home from the hospital! T. appreciates the rocker very much! He enjoys his late night bottles and listening to John Coltrane while rocking!!!Someday I hope to get one of your mesquite rockers as well! Thx again Gary and Crew!
Best,P—

Thank you for your email and kind words. Your rockers have been quite the conversation piece for all our visitors!

Just received and unboxed the rocking chair - it is beautiful! Every time we open one of your rockers, I am again amazed at the constant quality!

Thank you so very much! We are excited to gift it to our daughter.

Hi Gary,
Happy Valentines Day! The due date is creeping up on us quickly now!
...Currently, the porch rocker here is the only truly comfortable seat at 37 weeks. As always, thank you for bringing such beautiful and comfortable furniture into our lives.
Love, H.R.

Greetings to all…

I wanted to say thank you to everyone for the chair so carefully made for M. It arrived this morning and it was met with smiling faces and excitement. They loved the plague on the bottom with the family history and were so excited to see the amazing quality of the workmanship…plus…they love the mahogany.
...
As with each of the prior two rockers…absolutely perfect and again many thanks for the artisans hands and care.

All the best
B.

Hi Gary and all,
Good timing—today is actually the due date! But he hasn’t come yet. Thank you for checking in, that’s very kind of you.
The curly cherry rocking chair is the most beautiful rocking chair I’ve ever seen. We absolutely love looking at it every single day and it’s so comfortable to sit in. We can’t wait to rock our baby in it when he arrives.
Thanks again,
J.

Gary,


We are so glad to hear from you.


J. delivered their first baby on the 19th of December. Your Weeks rockers are the most beautiful and comfortable rockers anywhere! One of the best touches we have had is to meet the gal who actually made the rocking chair and delivered the chair! Autumn delivered the chair on the way to her Thanksgiving holiday with family. I was surprised at how young she is and how accomplished she is in woodworking. She delivered a top quality rocker...


You have grown the business so much, I practically don't recognize you. Ken and I bought our rocker several years earlier when your website was a little older and a lot fuzzier in appearance. The website is so professional compared to back then. I first found you by searching the web for rocking chairs that fit both short and tall people. Our family has people from 5 feet to 6'3”...


I love the Weeks rocking chair and frequently have people sit in it just for the experience, because it is such a lovely experience. The balance of the rocker makes for a soothing rock instead of a store bought clunky rock that requires more force to keep it going and "jumps" halfway through the rock because it isn't balanced properly. (think the white porch rockers that are sold everywhere or the more expensive rockers in a furniture store--there is simply no comparison)


Again, your craftsmanship is superb!
Merry Christmas to your family and family of Gary Weeks & Company!
Blessings,C.

Sir/Madam:

The Weeks rocker arrived in great condition and my wife helped unpack the box. (I tried to make it a surprise, but she figured things out from the picture not the box.)

My wife then proceeded to sit in the chair for the next few hours, marveling at the comfort, fit, and finish.

She did the same thing the next day.

Thank you.

B.

Thanks Gary!The new barstools are fantastic — beautiful and perfect matches to our original Weeks stools.Having sat on a lot of stools over the years, I can truthfully say that these are my favorites — simple, comfortable, and great lines...

kind regards,r.

Hi Gary Your workmanship is outstanding and you will be heading from us again! Have a wonderful holiday!
N.

Thanks for the email. It is gorgeous and definitely a keeper- recycling the cardboard shipping crate this weekend!

Hello Gary and Austin,
We had our first family Thanksgiving around our lovely dining table yesterday. It was perfect!
With gratitude,
B. and P.

Dear Austin; I just want to let you know that Autumn delivered my rocker Saturday. What a nice and informative lady! She highlighted the graining of the wood as well as the felt pads on the rocker to protect the wood floor. I’m glad y’all thought of that! I couldn’t be more impressed with Weeks&Company. The service was great and the rocker was outstanding! The cherry wood is beautiful & the rocker is so designed to fit perfectly.It rocks the way I thought a rocker should but rarely found. In gratitude to y’all;D.H.

Thanks for your note, Gary.

While it was a leap of faith to purchase the chair, it has more than delivered on the promise made. I have enjoyed sitting in it each day since it arrived. I would not hesitate to recommend your work to a friend looking for a rocking chair.

Thx, D.

Your pieces are as much artwork as the drawings and paintings I have on the walls.

I was going through some very old paperwork from 2002 and ran across our receipt from the rocking chair you made us. Thought I'd send a photo of the chair that truly became more beautiful over time. Thought you'd like to see it. Still gorgeous:)

Hello, everyone! Our cherry rocker arrived today with approximately $500 worth of cardboard, tape and foam. It is beautiful. It must have taken as long to wrap it as it did to make it! Thanks for taking such good care of us. We sing your praises.
J.

Congratulations on your 30th anniversary! The desk and cupboard you built [in 2014] for us here in Sacramento remains well loved. You guys are the real deal.

Best Wishes
K. D.

Congrats! You make a very fine piece of furniture. My wife really has enjoyed her rocker; its hard to pry her out of it. Many more years to you.
Regards,
J. D.

To all of you at Gary Weeks & Co.:

We continue to enjoy the kitchen table and chairs as well as the rocker that you made for us nearly 10 years ago.

We wish you continued success!

H. and K. M.

Omg Gary, I’m sitting at my island with the top and stools from you and I’m ecstatic about them! I know you have many accolades for the woodwork and pieces but I will tell you that passing the torch to the next generation (like Austin and Autumn) is a notable accomplishment these days.

Thanks for the note, I appreciate it.
J.S.

Thank very much, my wife absolutely LOVES the rocker, and uses it every day.

It's such a beautiful rocker, thank you all so very much!

---- M.

By the way, I’ve started using one of our armchairs for my daily meditation—it’s perfect for the task.
S.S.

The chair has arrived safely in Nashville and is now in a place of honor in the baby’s room. It is such a lovely piece!! My daughter and her husband have a sense of humor, and I wanted to share a few texts from them:
S. (...husband): “You can feel the quality.”
S. : “This chair seems to be saying ‘I am what furniture is supposed to be. I don’t know about the other stuff you guys you put in here, though.”
The chair to the other pieces in the baby room: “Back when I was being assembled by master craftsmen…oh sorry, you guys were cobbled together with Allen keys on a Saturday morning, weren’t you?”

Sincerely yours,
J.
R.

Dear Gary and Austin,

It's been ten months and I just love your beautiful rocker! It is the finest piece of furniture in our home. Your communication, packaging, shipping were exceptional.

But the rocker! It's an absolute masterpiece.

Thank you,
M.K.

Gary and Autumn,

I received the Weeks Rocking Chair and footstool this afternoon. No damage was found. The rocker is fantastic! Well made, beautiful wood, fits my body like a glove. When I was in college and medical school I always used a rocker for reading/studying... Now that I am retired..., I have been looking for a great rocking chair and believe that I have found it.

Thanks again.
L. W.

Dear Gary,

Congratulations on your 30th anniversary! I have had my Weeks Rocker now for 23 years and it is still rocking away in great shape. I love this rocker and I have experienced many ups and downs in this chair, and now that I am retired I spend many happy days and evenings listening to music in my Weeks masterpiece. I cherish it and want to thank for your creativity, craftsmanship, and commitment to quality.

J.F.

Hi Gary -

The rocking chair is truly incredible.
Thank you for all of your hard work on it. We are so grateful.

Best,

Dear Gary,

Our cherry rocker and foot stool arrived today. It is both beautiful and functional. It is so comfortable, and we love all the attention to detail. We are so pleased in every regard. Thanks so much!

B. and K...

Gary,I’m still enjoying my lifetime table. Thanks for the exceptional work by you and your team.
L.

The chair arrived safely. It's beautiful - and my wife and I took turns last night enjoying it!

Thanks so much for creating a beautiful piece for us, for the good customer service and supervised shipping experience. It was all just great.

Thanks Gary… The rocking chair is amazing! It is even more beautiful and comfortable than I imagined it would be… Def worth the wait and the money.

Much appreciated!

Sincerely,

M.

Hi Gary and Team,

Yes! We are so happy that we chose the mesquite rocker. It’s just beautiful all around.

J. loves the rocker and has been napping in it! He’s an avid cyclist and often rests after a long ride.
…and reads a lot while sitting it as well. :))

Have a great day and thanks again! 😊

All the Best,
S.
