The Stressless Adam recliner is made for deep relaxation, letting users rest with their feet elevated above their heart: the ideal position for unwinding. As more people prioritise health and well-being, Norwegian furniture manufacturer Ekornes sees a clear market trend for furniture that supports both comfort and recovery.
Stressless Adam is the first recliner in a new Power series from Ekornes. Designed for flexibility, it offers multiple customisation options, allowing you to relax in the way that suits you best.
‘Many people are looking for a real escape from the stress of everyday life. This chair is designed for recovery and deep relaxation, whether after a workout or when you simply need to rest and recharge,’ says Henrik Birkelund, Stressless director of global product development.
Stressless Adam lets you recline with your feet elevated above your heart, a position known as zero gravity, which offers several health benefits. The chair evenly distributes pressure across the body, reducing strain on the spine and joints. It also promotes better blood circulation, which helps reduce swelling and improves oxygen flow throughout the body.
‘Health, well-being and feeling good are important to people, and we see that our customers are increasingly prioritising their own self-care. Relaxation and recovery play a significant role in that: whether it’s a quiet moment to unwind, finding a calm and relaxing place to focus or simply a more comfortable way to enjoy your favourite book, show or podcast,’ says Birkelund.
Ekornes set out to create a sleeker, more interior-friendly chair, one that reimagines the traditional motorised recliner. With the simple press of a button, you can recline into the perfect resting position. Carefully chosen materials offer excellent support and pressure relief, providing comfort exactly where it’s needed most.
‘We have dedicated significant time and resources to developing this chair, aiming to achieve the perfect comfort, beyond what similar chairs on the market provide today. Our ambition is to be the leading name in Nordic comfort, quality and style. With Stressless Adam, we stay true to everything our brand represents,’ says Birkelund.
‘Stressless Adam isn’t just another motorised recliner – it’s our best product in this category,’ says Mariana Sousa, Stressless chief designer. ‘It’s designed with advanced features while still maintaining a sleek, modern aesthetic.’
