Hi Gary,
I got it Wednesday and am sitting in it now. It is beautiful to look at and comfortable, too. It arrived safely and I am enjoying it.
Thanks,

Gary,
The rocker arrived yesterday, unharmed from its long journey from Texas. Even the box it was shipped in looked good: Some child, either at your end or en route, decorated the box with crayon drawings of a butterfly and a ladder!
The rocker looks great in our 1850 schoolhouse home, and the pleasure I get from sitting in it is almost embarrassing. The wood is so sensuous to touch, and I sit transfixed by the little "flaws" in the grain, which stare back at me like little eyes. For me, sitting in it is both relaxing and energizing. I can lean my head against the back and hold a cup of coffee in my lap, the chair arms beveled perfectly for that restful position, but soon I find that I'm rocking slightly, and that gets me to thinking . . . and then to a sense of "OK, there's work to be done." Even a little rocking energizes my legs.
We're going to have a bunch of visitors today, and I can't wait to have them "have a sit."
You've created a beautiful piece of work that I am grateful to own.

Gary — Rocker arrived yesterday afternoon in perfect condition and it is great. A couple hick-ups with the delivery people but a little communication got it worked out. Thanks for a great chair and the great service.

Gary,
Rocker arrived safely this morning. I love it, absolutely beautiful! It fits me perfectly. The whole process from order to actually sitting in my chair has exceeded my expectations.
Thanks so much,

We received the maple rocker on Friday. It is both a museum piece and a perfectly functional piece of furniture. Thanks! One note. While this rocker was not harmed (a slight roughness on the bottom of one rocker in a short stretch), the bubble wrap had worn through at the very bottom of the chair and the wood of the rocker had been rubbing on the cardboard. No problem for us, but I wanted you to know. The outside of the box was perfect. Thanks again.

Hi Gary,
YES! We have received the rocking chair! We love it! As promised, it is the most comfortable rocker we've ever sat in. And besides that, it's beautiful!
We have no idea how you can make a rocking chair with measurements to please everyone — but you have — and we are grateful!
I am sitting in the rocking chair as I write this message! We are very excited about the baby arriving in a few weeks — the baby already seems to like the chair. As soon as E. gets up from rocking, the baby starts bumping around.
Thank you!
N. and E.
P.S. There was some lovely artwork on the box. We enjoyed the pink castle and ? battle ? — there seemed to be a bow and arrow involved. Do all shipments come with complimentary artwork? :)Corvalis, Oregon

Gary,
The chair arrived yesterday in perfect condition. I have been sitting in it as often as possible since that time. It is everything I thought it would be.
In December of last year, I injured my back caring for my 91 year old mother. I have been trying to rehabilitate my back since returning home in late January. Sitting in your chair feels so good to my back. Thank you.
