Testimonials

"We have purchased at least 14 Adirondack chairs for our glamping business from Ayke and Whatnot, and we couldn’t be happier with them! Initially, we bought cheaper versions elsewhere, but they started falling apart within a year. In contrast, the chairs made by Stefan have truly stood the test of time—they are incredibly strong, comfortable, and the perfect addition to our dome decks for soaking in the valley views and night sky.
Stefan also custom-made six beautiful towel rails for our domes, all expertly crafted, sturdy, and stylish. The quality of his workmanship is second to none!
A huge thank you to Maryke for her wonderful service and to Stefan for creating the best Adirondack chairs and towel rails you can buy.

We wouldn’t go anywhere else!"

"We love our Ayke & WhatNot Adirondack chairs! Having searched high and low for good quality, solid Adirondack chairs we came across Ayke & WhatNot and haven't looked back. They are by far the best quality in New Zealand and so much better than the big box store chairs. Ayke & WhatNot give exceptional service - ordering and arranging transport is an effortless process."

“We bought ourselves two of the Adirondack chairs after first discovering them on holiday. They are the best chairs you could imagine and it’s hard to believe they are made out of solid wood. They feel so soft and comfortable. True craftsmanship. We have just bought six more of these chairs for our tourist accommodation.”
“Maryke was incredible from the beginning of the process when I was just asking questions about construction methods to the end when I got my chair. The communication was impeccable even with the 16 hour time difference (Florida to New Zealand). I never felt like I was waiting around for answers or information. I'm honestly not sure how she did it. She was patient, helpful, and not only answered the questions I asked but also offered additional information that answered any follow-up questions I might have had. She even accommodated a custom canvas color for me. The finished product (a Roorkhee Chair) was finished very nicely and is extremely comfortable. Shipping was fast, packaging was well done, and assembly was frustration-free. Thanks again!"

"We were super-impressed with Ayke & WhatNot, from an initial enquiry right through to delivery. The communication was effortless, our chairs were made-to-order and completed before the due date, and delivery was swift and painless. The Adirondack chairs are outstanding, with quality timber & construction techniques, and oh-so comfortable! We will enjoy them for many years to come."
