Hello Gary and Leslie —
The rocker was delivered yesterday. The box was in reasonably good condition; the edge guards are brilliant. The delivery guy and I opened the box and removed the chair but did not unwrap it. Everything looked undamaged and I signed for it. I unwrapped it this morning and brought it inside. It is beautiful; an extraordinary piece of craftsmanship. I sat on it and immediately smiled because it is exactly as described on your website. Every surface is perfect. It is so comfortable. I was mostly unsure about there being only 4 slats in back but my concerns were unwarranted. I am looking forward to a rainy day to sit there by my window and read a good book, not that I won't be enjoying it on nice days, too.
Thank you,
M.Liberty Lake, Washington

Dear Gary (and team)
I absolutely love the chair. Somehow my favorite little touch is the way my hands fit around the ends of the armrests, I know you sloped it there and I really like what you did. And everything else is fantastic. One of my best purchases ever.
Thanks!

Gary/Austin,
I am refinishing my mahogany rocker, I purchased from you in 2007, and have a question about what type of Penofin Penetrating Oil you normally use on mahogany. There are quite a few choices and I want to make sure I get the right one.
My chair has served me well, it has been outside on my covered porch since I brought it home and I sit in it almost everyday. It is still the most comfortable wooden rocker I have ever found. After cleaning it, it looks almost brand new, except for the "character" my dog chewed on the ends of the bottom of the rocker.
Your assistance and the quality craftsmanship is appreciated!
Regards,

Gary, Austin and others:
First above anything else, thank you so much from the M. family for providing what has to be the most comfortable and relaxing chair in our entire house. Not a day goes by where we don't admire its beauty or sit in its welcoming form. Upon its arrival, I claimed it as my primary chair in the house. Upon the birth of our daughter, mom has summarily displaced me from this fictitious right and uses it every day for nursing, comforting as well as some well deserved napping. Each person that puts eyes on it for the first time is really quite taken with its beauty and craftsmanship. We couldn't be more happy with having this chair in our house and as part of our family. It will truly last a lifetime and beyond and I couldn't be more proud to pass this piece along to the future M. generation.
Thanks again for providing such a wonderful piece. We absolutely love it.

Hi Gary and Becca — the rocker is a huge success. My wife was quite surprised and loves it already. I enjoy running my hand along the incredibly silky smooth wood as I walk by and marvel at the craftsmanship. That's a really good shipping company that you guys work with as well. Again, we couldn't be happier with our Gary Weeks rocking chair.

Dear Mr. Weeks.
We have had many good conversations in the past. Our chairs are still a blessing to our family and the Rocker is the highlight of the living room.
The Mesquite Rocker can sit in a cabin in the wilderness or in the White House and wouldn't be out of place in either!
It's a Gary Weeks!

Becca,
The rocker came today and it is gorgeous and is so comfortable! I am very impressed that it does indeed fit perfectly. All the research you all did to discover the perfectly ergonomic rocking chair is incredibly rewarding. (All for your consumers!) Please tell all at the shop that they are indeed the best craftsmen ever! The beauty and the fit are unmatched anywhere.
Blessings,

Hello:
Hope this e-mail finds you all doing great.
Today my rocking chair arrived. What a great day! It arrived in perfect condition. The trucker was great and very interested in ordering a chair from you folks. I gave him your information.
Now, the chair is gorgeous!! Walnut matches are perfect.
Color is fantastic. I can not complain about anything!
Upon first sitting on the rocker my body just melted into the chair and I have only gotten up to let you folks know how wonderful this chair is (you probably already know this)
Thank you soo very much.

Taken from Yelp:
I bought the Mesquite rocker from Gary weeks about 5 yrs ago; it is a work of art and by far the most comfortable rocker I have ever had. The craftsmanship is terrific and the wood lovely, it is a well engineered product. Further, Gary and Co. stand behind their product. I recently had a break in one of the rockers and when I contacted them, they stood behind their warranty and arranged a repair. They crafted a new rocker and made sure that it was repaired correctly by a craftsman they knew and trusted in my location. That kind of integrity is hard to come by now days. Thanks Gary! I'm back in the rocker again and couldn't be happier.
