Gary Week’s rocker is absolutely the most comfortable rocker around, as this is the last place I sit before climbing into bed. Often I doze off, rocking away.
I own many rocking chairs—from antique mission rockers and caned seated ones to creaky, old wooden ones. I also have rocking chairs on both outside patios—vintage metal rocking chairs that I restored and the polywood rockers. I have a total of 10 rocking chairs dotted in my home or outside areas. If there is a rocking chair in a room, that’s where I want to sit.
With that said, my husband and I recently retired. We wanted chairs in our TV room that were super comfortable and were pleasing to the eye. All I wanted was a rocking chair. My husband googled “best rocking chairs.” We found Gary Weeks. His shop is located in Texas. I am in Philadelphia. I was concerned about purchasing a piece of furniture without sitting in it or even seeing it. I called the shop. Gary immediately called me back. I shared my concerns. He assured me that if I was not totally satisfied with the rocker, he would pay for shipping back and give me a total refund, including the initial shipping cost. So, I thought this could work.
The wood Gary uses is stunning. It is as if sunshine is in the room at all times. The craftsmanship is incredible. I have arthritis in my shoulder. The armrests are perfectly aligned with your spine. I feel no pain or discomfort while sitting in this chair. The back is amazing for lumbar support. If you watch Gary Weeks’s video on his website, it discusses all the comfort points. This was what sold me initially. And, the promises he makes are real. It is the most comfortable chair —hands down—around. It is a piece of art. It is designed to support your body’s structure. As I said in the beginning of this review, Gary Weeks’s rocking chair is the last place I sit before climbing into my bed. It lulls me to sleep. You will not be disappointed.

Gary,
...But I'm really writing because I feel guilty of how I took advantage of you over the deal I made for your rocker. I can't impress on you enough the enjoyment that cherry rocker has given G. and I over the years. We have a rather large room that serves as our dinning room and living room. And right smack dab in the middle is your rocker. You can sit in it and face our wood burning furnace or swivel it to the left and be in the middle of our living/tv room or swivel to the right and you're in our dinning area looking out our big picture window. We literally argue over whose turn it is to sit in it. G. has a bad back and it is the only chair that gives her comfort--so she uses it most. It's such a beautiful chair. In my mind, a real masterpiece. I admire it all the time--the balanced wood selection is superb--and at times, when the light hits it just right the colors and grains are just fantastic. But it's the lines I like the best. All the subtleties of design and the way it all comes together. It's a beautiful, beautiful rocker and I thank you so much for your generosity in allowing me to own it. It's by far our most treasured possession.
You both are truly blessed with not only what you've accomplished thru your creativity and hard work but with your extended family. I hope all is well.
Your fan,
P.

Hello Gary and co,
I just wanted to send an enormous thank you for the beautiful rocking chair and stool I received in December. This chair has been the go-to for everyone who rocks our new baby girl and it’s my absolute favorite space to nurse. I’m sitting in it now and don’t want to get up :). Both the chair and the foot stool are gorgeous, extremely comfortable and I feel the love and care oozing out of every thoughtful curve. What an excellent thing to create and share with the world, thank you so much.
I hope you all have a beautiful spring and very successful year. Xo

Designed for comfort, engineered forever, crafted with care and skill, and delivered on timefor my birthday! This mesquite chair by you and your crew is a delighful addition to thereading area of my studio ...
I particularly enjoy the matching of the complex grain of mesquite with the chairs symmetry,sitting in it as the winter storms pour over the top of the range, and thinking.
Please extend my appreciation to all who help build 3765, their attention to quality is obvious,so too your concept of comfort.
Rocking in good health

Hi Gary,
Thank you for reaching out. The rocker is absolutely wonderful. It is better than I could have ever imagined. C. loves it and basically can not stop talking about how much he loves it. The wood is so soft, the shape and size is perfect. It is currently living in our living room because he would like to sit in it by the fire every night of the winter before moving out to the porch for spring.
Thanks again for such wonderful craftsmanship and customer service. It means the world!
Kindly,

Just wanted to let you know that we received the rocker in fine shape and couldn’t be more pleased with the result! It’s everything you claimed it would be and then some: stunning in design, beauty, workmanship and comfort. Kudos to everyone involved in the design and production of such a work of art, and I don’t use that term lightly!
You have a company to be proud of.
Best regards,
