Ekornes announced early this year that it would be introducing 2 beautiful Stressless Chairs this year: The Metro and City Recliners. You will have the option for a High-Back or Low-Back version. There will also be a choice for a High-Base or Regular-Base. I recommend the high base because it helps you save money on Stressless Recliners.

The High-Base is ingenious. Ekornes is going further than putting a Stressless Recliner on sale. They are introducing the "High Base" which raises the seat height of the chair by 1.5". That's like getting an accessory (Elevator Ring) for free! We have already been informed that they are so confident that this High Base will help you achieve greater comfort that it will be the primary base stocked for these 2 families of recliners.
The following leather options will be stocked immediately. Any other colors can be special ordered to suit your tastes perfectly!
- Snow Batick, Black Paloma & Clementine Paloma for City Recliners
- Black, Chili Red & Mocca Paloma for Metro Recliners
The official release date is the 1st day of July 2014. However, we are accepting orders now and it is wise to get your Pre-Orders in quickly to avoid delays in receiving your items.
Ekornes was keen on honoring their vintage, traditional designs with these new families of seats. However, they kept things current with the latest in Stressless Technologies:
- The Plus System™ is the original design that ensures your neck is cradled, back supported and lumbar cushioned throughout the entire seating experience. No matter how you sit, there is support for you. Thanks Ekornes!
- The Glide System™ allows you to effortlessly recline and relax. Adjust the Glide Knobs when you first sit so that it requires minimal effort recline. Once you adjust them to your body weight, you don't ever have to adjust them again! This smooth, gliding sensation is what makes these chairs worth every penny.
- The matching Ottomans & Tables and Accessories ensure that every need you can imagine while comfortably reclined is met. Recline, sit, nap, lay, lean forwards: there is an accessory that will fit your style perfectly. The Urban Table has been specifically designed to harmonize with these new models. Check it out and let us know what you think!
