Cons
✗ Price: This might be the biggest thing that keeps consumers from investing in Stressless® furniture.

Are Stressless® Chairs Worth It?
If you're stuck wondering "Should I invest in a Stressless chair?" or "Are Stressless chairs worth the price?" In our opinion, yes. Stressless® Chairs and the Stressless® Collection in general is a top-notch luxury brand that is worth the investment. Stressless® chairs have been known to last some 20+ years, as opposed to brands like Ashley or La-Z-Boy, which only last around 7-15 years. Rather than investing in lower-quality furniture, we believe investing in luxury brands like Stressless® gives you comfort and quality that can be enjoyed for many years to come.
