Price: Lo To Hi Price: Hi To Lo Ekornes Stressless Chairs: An Introduction to Comfort The Ekornes Stressless recliner was first introduced in Norway in 1971, and immediately attracted a great deal of attention. Ekornes ASA has since grown to be the largest furniture manufacturer in the Nordic region. The Ekornes Stressless Chair was marketed as a one of a kind chair, developed to be the perfect combination of comfort and functionality. This original chair became known as the first chair explicitly designed to make sedentary entertainment, like watching television or reading a book, comfortable. By 1981, sales of Ekornes Stressless Chairs had reached 100 million Norwegian Kroner, validating the company's promise. Later on in 1983, Ekornes was awarded the Norwegian Export Prize. The Stressless Chair has evolved several times over the past 40 years. The original chairs were made with a metal base, and in 1981 the more efficient wooden-based chairs made their debut. The Stressless Royal recliner was the first model to feature the wooden base.
This newer, wooden model continues to be used in the recliners today. In 1991 Ekornes launched the Plus system. The Plus system allowed the headrest on the Ekornes Stressless recliner to move forward as the chair reclined. This allowed the occupant's eyes to remain focused on the object in which they were engaged.Newsletter Sign Up × Sign up for early notification of our special offers throughout the year, along with announcements of our newest styles, room design inspiration and plenty of ideas for living Stressless.

The softness and support of the chair work together to cushion and cradle you, and when you're seated in the chair an elegantly engineered system keeps your body perfectly balanced - almost like you're floating on air. Perfect for a long day in the office, the Stressless Magic Office Chair does all the work for you, with the only adjustment being the angle of the headrest. The Stressless Magic Office chair is built with perforated foam molded directly over the frame. The indentations in Stressless' new Comfort-Zones technology allows your body to sink deeper into the seat, giving you an enhanced feeling of personal comfort.
An additional pad of soft space-age foam ensures optimum comfort. The super-soft polyester fiber cushions your body and ensures an attractive look. The Plus system within the chair controls lumbar region support, so that whenever you need it, the chair moves to support your lower back. The recline function (the Glide System) reacts to shifts in your body weight. This means you never have to hold tension in your body, like you would in many other office chairs. Your head, neck, and shoulders are supported well by the Stressless Magic Office Chair's headrest. The headrest moves with the chair to keep your head supported in a reading position with your neck muscles relaxed. As an alternative, you can drop the headrest if you'd like to lie almost fully flat. The American Chiropractic Association are fans of Ekornes - enough so that they've endorsed their Stressless office chairs. The chair's 5-star base with wheels is carefully developed and designed to give optimal stability and the freedom of 360 movement.
What's Not to Like: We're not going to be able to knock this office chair's comfort. It's got luxurious all-day comfort. So it's all a matter of taste at this point. If you don't like its look, then that's what's not to like. We don't think that the price tag is an issue here because of the incredible value a Stressless office chair is in terms of comfort and durability. The Bottom Line: With a striking combination of comfort, function, and balanced good looks, the Stressless Magic Office Chair is beautifully made. The direct result of more than 35 years of refining what Ekornes has preached all along, this office chair makes it easy for you to picture yourself sinking into it for a day of comfortable productivity. Don't forget: Stressless chairs are built to last - so Ekornes guarantees the internal mechanism for 10 years. That's 53 years in dog years, give or take a few.
