“I have truly enjoyed working with your company I have seen the pride and tears in people’s eyes when we present them their chair… I am very excited and proud about my chair… One of my highlights of retiring… For me this is bitter sweet.”Jo B., Macon, GA

“Thank you for all your help with the college chair and image. The chair we got for my mother who always wished she could have afforded her school chair back in the day. Well, she cried when she saw it. Her reaction was priceless!”Stephanie G., Boston, MA

“I had to let you know that Karen was extremely delighted with the recognition chair which she received at her retirement party. Kathy will receive her chair next Monday and I anticipate her reaction will be similar to Karen's. Personally, I think these chairs are WOW - KNOCK YOUR SOCKS OFF gifts! I have several years 'til retirement, but hopefully it will be a rocker from Standard Chair. ”Emma J., Arkadelphia, AR

“It is not very often that I feel compelled to sit down and write a letter such as this, however, in this particular situation it is well warranted. To say your staff is professional and courteous and thorough is an understatement. It is so nice and refreshing to work with such a great group of people. I have occupied this position for almost six years, worked previously for a Fortune 500 company for three years prior to that and I can count on one hand the amount of companies that exude the same amount of professional as your crew. Right down to the last detail, everyone makes sure everything is done to perfection (at least through my eyes) and no stone is left unturned. From the beginning of the process to the end, I feel completely confident that our Alumni will be 100% satisfied with their college chair(s) and it makes us look our best. I applaud your fortitude and the level of excellence with regard to Customer Service and Customer Relations. Thank you to everyone for such great work. We look forward to informing our many valued and distinguished Alumni where they will be receiving their chair from for years to come. Many thanks go out to all of you on the phones and behind the scenes. You all do great work.”Robert F., Milford, DE

“Thank you so much for all your help with getting my chair ordered. It is beautiful and my husband loved it so much. My husband’s father received one after he graduated from Medical School, as a gift from his wife. That chair always meant the sign of success for the kids while growing up in the home. My husband started his company 10 years ago and that is quite an accomplishment in my eyes. Receiving this gift meant more to him than just the chair, it has deeper meaning and many memories behind it. Thank you for making the chairs so special to all of us.”Jennifer E., Seattle, WA

“Our school district placed an order with you last spring for three recognition chairs and I wanted to share with you how pleased we are with your company. From our first contact asking for information, to placing the order, to having the order verified, to receiving the order, your company was one of the most professional and service orientated that I have ever worked with. I can't tell you how ecstatic the recipients of your chairs where. They each remarked that this was the best gift ever. One person even cried. As they retired, they felt that they not only had a beautifully crafted piece of furniture, but a gift they will always treasure. My only regret is that I have waited so long in letting you know how delighted we are with the chairs. The craftsmanship was appreciated by so many people who attended the retirement parties. Many who attended where professionals with an eye for fine product. I was asked numerous times where did I get the chairs and how can they contact the company. In closing, I just want to say that when the occasion arises again, we won't hesitate to contact your company. ”Mary B., Portland, OR

“My name is Nancy G. I am a bookkeeper at the elementary school. We purchase your beautiful rockers for our retirees. We have done this for many years. We had some unfortunate news about one of our staff members about 3 weeks ago. Her name is Lisa and she taught at the school for over 31 years. She was diagnosed with cancer (all through her body) and was given two months to live. Things turned for the worst last week. We were told on Thursday that she was in very grave position. We as staff immediately wanted to get her rocker for her. I called and spoke with one of your customer service representatives. I was very upset and crying and she was very compassionate. Needless to say, we received the chair on Wednesday. Lisa's husband took the rocker to the hospital room. Lisa passed away the following morning. I just wanted you to know what a wonderful employee you have. You should be proud to have such a valuable member of your team.”Nancy G., Helena, MT

“What can I say!! Brad’s Boston Rocker was a complete surprise to him and an emotional one as well, I must say. We had his divisional party this past Wednesday, and he already has told me that he has had his morning coffee while sitting in it the last two mornings. I truly am not sure we could have given him a finer gift! For your assistance in getting it to me in plenty of time and for the exceptional quality of workmanship, I thank you most sincerely. I know as our “senior” faculty look down the road to retirement, you will probably be hearing more from us. Again, my sincerest thanks for all your assistance, beautiful craftsmanship, and cooperation. Thank you so very much again.”George P., Brockton, MA

“I am writing to thank you for the compassion you showed recently a College chair we ordered. The chair was for a retiree, who had selected a rocker as his retirement gift. The retiree, John, had been diagnosed with a brain tumor, had undergone chemotherapy and radiation therapy, but the cancer had invaded multiple organs. He had been told he had less than three months to live. We were concerned that he might not live long enough to see his chair, and so our purchasing rep asked about express shipping in this case. I understand that when you learned of the medical situation at hand, you were kind enough to waive the additional express shipping fee. I can't begin to describe for you how pleased John was to receive the chair so quickly. He was in hospice care, and the rocker was not only physically comforting to him, but also emotionally satisfying as a remembrance of his time worked at the College. John died this past weekend, and on his behalf I just wanted to pass along a heartfelt "Thank you!" to you. Your compassion made it possible for him to have a better quality of life in his last weeks than would have otherwise been the case. I realize that it's not often that a supplier deals with human needs of a routine purchase order. I can assure you that your response to this unique situation will not soon be forgotten.”Anne M., VP Human Resources, Alexandria, VA

“As you are aware, I can be very critical of things if they are not, in my view, being handled as I feel they should be. I am also someone who recognizes and appreciates when people go out of their way to make things PERFECT. The employees at Standard Chair could not have done a better job in handling the 200 chair order for the Distinguish Professors Award for our University Provost’s Office. At this time, and it’s been a couple of months, I have not had a single complaint or a single issue reported to me in regards to chair imperfections or engraving issues. Standard Chair made our store look great and I wanted to take a minute and let you know how grateful I am for everyone at Standard Chair. Happy New Year and thanks again for being such a great business partner.”Carl L., St. Paul, MN

“This is just a happy note to tell you how thrilled our boss is with his recognition chair. His face lit up like a sunbeam, and he obviously enjoys the admiration everyone has expressed for the fine quality and style. Thank you for helping with this order.”Janine P., Worcester, MA

“I would like to extend my thanks for letting me purchase the college chair as a Christmas gift for my husband. He graduated in 1966 with an Associate's Degree from a school in Boston, continuing his education for his Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering at another school. His university days in Boston, however, remains his fondest memory. The look on his face when he opened the box will now be my fondest memory.”Rhonda Q., Bar Harbor, ME

“I appreciate your efforts in expediting the delivery of the recognition chair for Dr. Roberts. I expected that he would fail quickly and that has unfortunately proven to be the case. I delivered the chair to him at his home last week (he no longer can come into the university) and he cried when he saw it. He was looking forward to his retirement and receiving his chair at the time. The recognition chair represented a career of hard work and achievement to him. He said of it, "Now my grandchildren will have a special reminder of me after I am gone." Thank you and the staff of Standard Chair of Gardner for making Dr. Roberts happy and for giving us some small way to show our feelings for him. ”Richard M., Baton Rouge, LA

“Log of afterwork activities…Drove into carport, noticed large square box in corner hemmed in by trash cans…Thought of Ann’s question a month ago about my at home days and hours: a large UPS package was to be delivered… Dashed into house, asked Karen if she’d seen the box cleverly placed by the UPS driver so’s not to be noticed; she had…Dashed back to retrieve box; toted it inside for closer inspection; noticed Gardner, MA, and furniture labels…Began making wild, chair-type guesses: we’ve driven through Gardner on Route 2 many times, bought furniture there, too, even chairs!...Left box, change clothes, just to savor the prospect of opening the box, a common behavior: getting there is half the fun, tantalizing self-enhances pleasure…Began opening cardboard container using old hunting knife (never used by me for the purpose) with great care in order not to damage contents…Remarked on thoroughness of packing inside box as evidenced by unexpected difficulty in cutting though interior braces, know those Yankees were masters of carefulness…Lifted out the Standard Chair complete with seal over name and date of Director’s Award recipient, could not believe eyes, turned off TV news to honor the moment!... Rested buns on seat, lowering self gently into the enveloping luxury of the two-toned wood…Ran fingers (after washing) over seal, realized that legend was carved into wood, not just painted on! Class!!...Placed chair in dining area for constant surveillance during evening meal, broke reverent silence to listen to Channel 10 weather analysis (just weather, thought!)…Still oohing and aahing to self and Karen about how beautiful is this piece of furniture, truly a work of art deserving of an exhalted place in the home of the recipient…Suddenly realized that recipient was I, became near teary that someone could have been so thoughtful, generous, and surprising…After evening meal (and after washing hands again in the dish water), sat in chair, reveled in its comfort; felt like an upholstered piece, so cleverly has the wood been crafted…Noted how relaxing it was to sit in this jewel of Gardner wizardry after a full hour of enjoyment: signs of stress vanished due to some magical power, I’m sure (pride of ownership?)…During preparations for bed, began wondering how to express thanks to giver for the extraordinary recognition, thought of carrying into the office to share joy with friends there including donors, of course, but decide that was to ostentatious for me…Determined to attempt putting feelings of gratitude into writing next day as visions of gentle chair legs danced languidly in my drowsy head…. Awoke for usual nightly purpose, sat in chair briefly afterward, believe wood exuded almost visible glow, perhaps in satisfaction in finding a loving home at last!”Harold E., Chicago, IL

It is a pleasure to do business with a company that has excellent customer service. Next, let me say the rocker took my breath away!

“A HUGE THANK YOU! to you and Standard chair of Gardner for your help in replacing the chairs for my daughter and son-in-law! The chairs arrived very quickly. Since they were having work done on the new home before they moved in, my daughter quickly opened the boxes to be certain the personalization was correct. However, she did not want to remove the chairs from the boxes while the work was going on. My daughter and son-in-law have now moved into their new home. My daughter reports the chairs are beautiful and hold a place of honor in a small alcove of their kitchen. Having so much damage done to their previous home with Hurricane Ivan was a devastating experience. They lost many items, including some irreplaceable family treasures! The replacement of these chairs gives them a lift and a breath of hope for better times ahead.”Peg L., Cincinnati, OH

And again, the chair was a big hit!”Kristin M., Norman, OK

The lamp is a truly elegant piece of workmanship in design and construction, the perfect marriage of art and utility. I am also proud to have it as I know that you have been involved in its creation. I can anticipate that my children and grandchildren will enjoy the lamp for years to come.

And how proud it makes me feel to know such a company is located in Massachusetts. Please communicate my appreciation to everyone affiliated with your fine company.”George D., Hershey, PA

“I want to take a few minutes to compliment one of your employees. I'm sure you hear feedback about poor employees, but this is to compliment one instead; one who knows how to interact with customers. I spoke with this particular customer service representative when I dialed your 800 number. I do not have her last name but she spoke clearly, distinctly and gently. She was ever so helpful in my placing an order when a different source - outside your company - was totally non-responsive. She walked me through my order (of a Heritage Lamp), took all the information, confirmed it, and just made ordering this special item a cakewalk. American companies need more just like her working for them. Whatever you are paying her is not enough!”Henry S., Baldwin City, KS

“Well, she did it again! Yet another letter to advise you of the absolutely superb customer service your representative provided me this week. Some mis-guided Navy ship came to me wanting a chair made and delivered to Norfolk, VA "by noon yesterday". I took the problem to the representative and she (like always) went the extra ten miles to ensure the ship got their chair on time. All in the middle of a computer melt-down there at headquarters! This customer service representative is special but I have a sneaking suspicion that you already know that. Thanks again...its truly a pleasure doing business with Standard Chair! Happy New Year!”Mark G., Corvallis, OR

They were interviewing a scientist at one of the universities with regards to possibly finding a cure for cancer by using the "fruit fly". Anyway, you could see the "Standard" wood chair in the background. It was neat to notice such a beautiful piece of furniture and even know the name of the manufacturer. Awesome!”Sandra B., Waltham, MA
