Hi Gary,
We truly love the chair- it’s perfect and the wife has already ditched me on the couch for the rocker. Hopefully our cabin will be finished in a year’s time and we can move it there or maybe just buy another one from you!…Thank you again! We really appreciate the expertise and care it takes to create these wonderful chairs.
Best,

The Weeks Rocker is the most comfortable chair I’ve ever owned—even surpassing my Eames Lounge. Its sculpted wood design provides real lumbar support and perfect ergonomics that gently pull you into proper posture. Unlike cushioned chairs that let you sink and slouch, the firmness and contour of the rocker allow my muscles to fully relax, much like a well-designed firm mattress. I’ve sat in it for hours and stood up feeling refreshed. Truly outstanding craftsmanship—I’ll be back for another.

Hello Gary,
A. and J. are delighted with the walnut Weeks Rocker and Harris footstool. They…describe these pieces as their best furniture. (High praise from a daughter familiar with traditional Virginia Henkel Harris and Maryland Statton furniture!) Austin, Autumn and your staff were wonderful to work with. Thank you for your hospitality…
Thank you for being there for us; what a great reflection on Texas!
Best regards,

Hi Gary
The rocker arrived in great shape, it’s absolutely perfect. The craftsmanship is outstanding. I’m so glad that I selected the American Walnut but I’m sure in any wood it would have been beautiful. Thanks for a wonderful experience.
Regards

Good morning Weeks Family - The rockers were a big hit! B. and I love continuing the legacy of Weeks furniture in our hill country home - from straight back chairs of your early days, to new counter stools and now these 4 lovely porch rockers. Every morning we were there with a cup of coffee, and again in the evenings with a good book or a glass of wine while the younger adults grilled! Best rockers ever -beautifully proportioned, oh so smooth rocking and comfortable for HOURS!

Hi, Gary and all,
My wife totally and completely LOVES your rocker! It's incredibly beautiful and comfortable to sit in. She's maybe happier than expected because the real thing is so well crafted and attractive in person. You all do wonderful work in making rockers that are works of art and very functional. Our small poodle loves it, too. Every time she or I sit in the Weeks Rocker, he comes running to sit on our lap, and rock away.
Thank you!!!
best,

I received the rocking chair and barstools and all I can say is WOW! Just amazing workmanship--so much so that the table I had intended to use for the barstools just isn't cutting it! Would you be able to make a 48' Johnson Pedestal Table w/o Apron in walnut, counter height (36")? I'd be much obliged! Gratefully,L...Ramona, California

Gary,
What a joy to receive such a prompt response and from the man who always seeks to “do the very best we can do.”…
J and I continue to marvel at (and enjoy) the comfort of fit of your rocker design. She is short(er) and I, not so short, but we both seem to fit the curve of the chair. (both seat and back perfectly) Although I have never experienced a Sam Maloof rocker, I cannot imagine that it would be superior…thank you for your timeless design and continued craftsmanship...
Best to you and your family,

L. ,
Here's a little case study. I'm 5 feet 2 inches and sat on the chair right after we got it out of the box (by the way, it was really well packed with padding where it was necessary but no extra garbage, and in a high quality box that had clearly been designed for this chair). Not only did I find it very comfortable, but I also noticed something very unusual: my feet reached the ground when I was sitting. Then it was S.'s turn. There was silence until S. finally said what we were both thinking. If I could reach the ground, the chair was going to be ridiculously tiny for his 6 feet 2 inches.
Well... he tried it and also liked it a lot. We were very impressed by the design. Honestly, I didn't think it'd be possible to make a chair that would be comfortable for body types as different as ours. I'll learn more about Gary and his team on their website. I'm curious now!
Thank you!
