About Stressless Recliner Chairs

 
Glide System

Glide System

  • The patented glide system is the key to the renowned comfort of Stressless.
  • It makes the perfect balance and lets the chair move in harmony with the body - all of the time.
  • The Stressless control is adjusted once to match Glide system to your body weight.
  • Then as you lean back, you'll appreciate the wonderful feeling of letting the chair follow your movements - hands free.
Plus System

Plus™ system

  • The unique Plus™ system developed by Stressless gives perfect support for your head and lower back.
  • When you recline the headrest moves forward automatically - so you can watch tv, read and keep eye contact whatever your seating position.
  • The Plus™ system gives perfect support for the lumbar region. No matter how you sit.
  • When you're upright the chair fills the small of your back.
  • When you lie back the chair you sit deeper with perfect side support.
  • If you're feeling sleepy, the sleep function is always at hand so you can drift away in total comfort.
  • On many Stressless models, a height adjustable head support is easily moved to provide even more comfortable sitting positions and is ideal when the chair is used by people of different heights.
Footstool

Free-standing footstool with glide function

  • The free-standing footstool is a perfect example of the fundamental Stressless concept of movement and relaxation and their endless pursuit of comfort.
  • When you lie back in your recliner, your legs move slightly forward which means your feet are lowered - not by much, but enough to make a difference you can really feel.
  • To match that slight movement, the new Stressless stool has a built-in glide function which automatically lowers your feet.
  • The effect is amazing. In fact, the new Stressless stool makes the world's most comfortable recliner even more comfortable.
360 degrees

Full circle turn

  • Sideways movement is also important - so in a Stressless you can also rotate the chair a full 360° at the push of a foot.
  • The characteristic Stressless two-stem base also makes Stressless the most stable of all rotating recliners, which is as important for your comfort as your peace of mind.
