As my back gets older it no longer likes the medium quality recliner that we have owned for the last 10+ years.
Yesterday I went to a high end furniture store and looked at recliners ranging from $2000 to $5000.
I specifically looked at Norwegian made brands, Stressless and Fjords. Both were well made and comfortable with price range of $2000- 3000.
I have read the prior thread where Bogleheads were highly satisfied with Stressless but I did not find much mention about Fjords.viewtopic.php?t=404328
I found a Fjord to be much comfortable for me and I am likely buying it but wanted to know Bogleheads opinion about it especially about how it compares with Stressless. The sales person told me that Stressless is much better for heavier people (more strongly built). We weigh between 130 to 150 lbs and she opined that Fjords was strong enough for that weight.
I found this one most satisfactory after sitting in it for 20-25 min. https://centuryhouseinc.com/product/fjo ... n/?cat=197
I thought that their highest quality leather (Astro Line/AL) was the most cost effective.
Thoughts?
