Ekornes Stressless Seating ordered for Home Theater today

[tigerhonaker]

Up-Date Feb. 1st 2012

We just went back and purchased the Stressless Double Ottoman.
We just tried the one out that was on Display and it is great.
It has tons of storage and you can slide the ends out and lay the center wood section on for a table.
Same leather as the rest in Paloma, Rock color, Wood for table in Black.

I think we are all set now as this completes the set.
We have limited room to the sides so this seating is going to work out perfect.
It is all in the Medium size which is OK as we are not big people.
And it will fit in the room with space to walk around.

Played with the Stressless On-Line again.
I might be getting actually better at this.

This is the one we looked at in the store this evening.

Home Theater Members & Guest,

Since Cathy & I found out that it is going to be the end of February
or 1st week of March for the New Gear to arrive,

We decided to go ahead and order all new HT (Home Theater) seating.

I did a lot of research On-Line as usual and found what we think is a great product.

The name of the Company is EKORNES.
The line we chose is Stressless Wave.
We ordered 1 Stressless Wave High-Back Love Seat.
The leather we went with is called (Paloma).
We chose it as it seemed to be for Adults durable.
The color of the Paloma leather we chose is (Rock).
That is very close to Black but not the sheen of Black more a brushed look.
The Alternate Legs we chose for it are (Wooden hoop) in Black.

We ordered 2 Stressless Atlantic Recliners.
Paloma leather in Rock color with Black wood base.
They come with the Ottoman in same matching Rock color and base in Black wood.

The existing seating in our HT (Home Theater) has been there for Plus 9-Years.
So it is certainly time to replace the seating with more modern High-End furniture.

Below is some information on EKORNES for those that might be in the market.
I can tell you that Cathy & I tried out the exact seating we ordered only in a different color.
You will not be disappointed in this furniture when you are ready.





















You can go On-Line and do what is called, (Room Designer).
I did that and then took a picture with my camera just to get an idea of what it looked like.

The seating is correct in the two pictures below but it did not have the correct colors to match our HT room colors.
But it was fun to play with and gives a rough idea of what the seating looks like.
Sorry about the quality of the pictures.
If you try taking a picture of your computer screen you know how difficult that is.





I made the attempt to try to come close to our HT colors below.
(They are not but better than the Grey color above)

They are from Norway and my first time sitting on them was in Norway. They sold them briefly at a local furniture store. I bought a recliner-rocker and it was around $1800 but not up to snuff.

Hopefully your choices will pan out better...I returned the chair but still love the styling and comfort the company makes.

We have several and love them. One of the best features is that you can order the chairs in sizes to fit your body. Very comfortable.

Hi Tiger,

Bought my "Savahna" in 2000. Replaced the seat pad and arm rests last year and it looks and feels like new.

Expensive but very well designed and built. Worth it if you are into the contemporary, minimalist look.

And yes, very comfortable to boot.

Thanks guys for the comments & compliments.

We just got back Home as we went over and dropped a few more bucks this evening.

The European Seating Store is only like 20 minutes from where I am sitting.

We decided to jump on the Stressless Double Ottoman to go with the loveseat & recliners.

Tried the one out on Display with the exact reclinder we have on order.
It works great and the loveseat as you know is simply two of the recliners together installed in a frame.

If you go back and check out Post #1 I did Post some Pictures.

Things are looking up for the Ole HT with New gear coming anf now a New Fresh look in the seating for it.

Of course it is time as things have been there for going on 9-years.

Thanks again guys,
Terry

I scanned the small sample of the Paloma Leather with Rock color.

This is close to what it looks like.

Terry,

May I ask what the price of one normal single chair is in the US. They are pretty expensive over here (up to 4k).

Thanks
