Born of nature and crafted for comfort, Stressless® is a legacy of Scandinavian design excellence founded in Norway. What began as a small spring factory in 1934 evolved into a world-renowned furniture brand celebrated for ergonomic innovation.

Heritage of Innovation

The journey began with Jens Ellingsen Ekornes, whose early work producing springs and mattresses led to the creation of the first Stressless® recliner in 1971 — redefining comfort worldwide.

Decades of Craftsmanship

Each Stressless® piece is carefully engineered and assembled in Norway, combining advanced mechanical systems with premium materials to create seating that adapts naturally to the body.

A Nordic Design Icon

Inspired by the Norwegian landscape, Stressless® embodies Scandinavian values of simplicity, durability and sustainability — delivering timeless comfort for modern living.
