Stressless is unparalleled in terms of comfort, quality, and longevity. Rather than spending money on multiple recliners or chairs that will lose quality rather quickly, Stressless seating options will provide you with long-lasting comfort.

Because Stressless furniture is high-quality, it can be an investment. The cost of furniture is need-to-know information when it comes to making informed decisions, so we wanted to dive a little deeper into Stressless furniture so you can get an idea of how much it may cost you and what you’re paying for.

What is Stressless furniture?

Stressless is a line of recliners, sofas, and chairs made by Ekornes using high-grade materials. The cream of the crop, if you will. 

Not only has Stressless become a trailblazer for quality, comfortable furniture, but they do so in an eco-conscious way to protect their native land and leave a minimal ecological footprint. They recycle at every opportunity, like using excess wood chips to heat their facilities or selling leather scraps to other companies so that nothing gets wasted.

How much does Stressless furniture cost?

Pricing for Stressless furniture varies, and it will depend greatly on what you’re looking for:

• Price ranges for a recliner start around $1,895 up to $4,495 on the premium end. The Consul Stressless Chair is an entry-level option while the Magic Stressless Chair is more luxurious.

• If you're looking to update your home office, a Stressless office chair will start at $1,695. A luxury option like the Magic Office Chair is priced at $3,795. The Consul Office Chair is $1,995 for something more affordable.

• Stressless sofas come in multiple designs, sizes, and recline options, and their price depends on these factors. They start around $2,295 and go up to $9,390.

Between the price points, you can expect differences in the quality of materials as well as the intricacy of the sewing and the size of the furniture. Naturally, the larger a piece is, the more it will cost. More expensive pieces will feature the finest grade leather, cushions you’ll sink into, and neck and lumbar support - ultimately influencing their prices.
