Gary,

The rocker and stool arrived in perfect shape. The chair is even more beautiful and comfortable than I had imagined it would be. I'll be ordering one or two more in the spring.

Thanks for your great service and product. You give me hope that American craftsmanship is alive and well, at least in Wimberly, TX.

Best wishes for a healthy and happy holiday season.

Gary,

I've just finished unwrapping the chair at my house. It is perfect! The box was undamaged at the terminal. I unpacked it from the crate and it fit right in the back of my Jeep Liberty with the seats down. It is a beautiful thing, a real work of art. I appreciate the effort you made to get it here before Thanksgiving. When my wife gets home tonight she will be delighted. Please use us as a reference, not that you seem to need any. This chair will be used and loved beyond our years.

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving,
C.M.

Hi Gary,

The rocking chair was delivered last evening without incident, and the driver was, as you suggested, much more cooperative than the dispatcher. That individual could use some training in giving some hope to the customer that maybe things won't be as complex as was described, and refraining from the definite "no's" about which she was adamant. A simple "it is the prerogative of the driver" would suffice.

The rocker is the epitomy of fine craftsmanship. The finish is impeccable. The quality and workmanship makes us know our great grandchildren will still have use of it in the future long after our rocking days are over.

Yes, we received the rocker. It arrived in great condition. I must say that it is wonderful to touch and look at. I am more than pleased and very grateful. Thank you for making such a beautiful treasure for myself and my two sons. We look forward to enjoying it for many, many, years.

Thank you, Gary and please thank your wife and son Austin for assisting in the process as well. We are blessed to have such a fine piece from such a fine family. Take care.

Good Afternoon Gary,

Just wanted to let you know that everyone loves the rocker. People have used words like "incredible", "unbelievably comfortable", "magnificent", "stunning". M. has not made any comments yet, but she loves to nurse and sleep in the rocker.

Thank you very much for a piece of art that will be in our family for generations.

Regards,

The chair arrived in perfect condition. It took me awhile to unpack the crate. That was one very large box. The box is still on my front porch. I had already re-arranged my bedroom in preparation, but found that with the chair and the stool, I needed to re-arrange again. That of course led to re-arranging all the pictures on the walls as well! Several hours later, the chair and the rest of the furnishings in my bedroom are in place.

Thank you for a very comfortable chair. I was a little concerned when I saw it that it might be too large since I am only 5 feet tall. You said it would fit someone my height and it does. I look forward to many years of use. The stool is beautiful in its simplicity and I am enjoying it as well. Thank you.

Your email said it very well! We love the chair and appreciate how well it is made. We also thank you for meeting our order several weeks earlier than expected.

Gary,

We just unpacked the chair tonight and it is by far the most beautiful piece of furniture we have ever purchased! The wood is gorgeous, and the craftsmanship is truly unbelievable (The parts are so well joined together that they feel completely seamless). You and your team are truly amazing artists.

After seeing your work, I am reminded of how much quality gets lost (in other company's products – of course) for the sake of mass production. Your chair feels thoughtful, even serene in comparison.

I am sure we will enjoy it for many years to come.

Sincerely,
D.S.

Gary,

Thanks for checking up on your progeny. I cheerfully accept responsibility for care and feeding from now on.

I have rocked a while (in secret) and am happy to report that this chair is a fine example of quality craftsmanship and beautiful material.

My wife will not know its comfort until her birthday on September 2 and the little girl who's on the way; she should be in the chair sometime around the end of November. I'll send along a note once we are all able to enjoy the chair.

This whole exchange has been a pleasure. Thanks to you and everyone who had a hand in making this happen. Please share this note with your people.
