Kinda related story;

My grandpa passed about 5 years ago. Avid deer hunter, but he didn’t hunt his last 10 years. His deer stand sat abandoned the whole time and slowly rotted. Finally about 2 years ago the wind knocked it over. I discovered this a few months after it happened and was picking through the mess. I found the mangled remnants of an authentic Herman Miller lounge chair from the 1960’s. I mentioned it to my dad and showed him a picture of what the chair was supposed to look like. He said that chair was in there house as a kid, got moved to his shop in the 80’s, and finally ended up in his deer stand.

Looking around quick online this chair are worth up to $10k+. I couldn’t believe it.

I was wandering around an antiques store in Tampa FL many years ago and they were rearranging to put one of these in the front. Price tag $400, Condition nearly perfect. I had to crawl underneath to make sure it was a real one. Saw the label, paid, and carried it home. Best purchase that trip!

I've got one for you. Brought my daughter to daycare. Noticed the outside door of their shed attic blown out by wind and inside I saw a glimpse of Eames fiberglass chairs.

I made a remark that those are quite expensive chairs to be standing in the attic. They took them down and appeared to be 1955 originals in nearly pristine condition. They've found these chairs years ago when someone clearing a house put them out for trash. They had 10 of them. I got a bottle of Champagne to thank me after they sold them to a collector.

Similar story, my wife buys antiques and I was picking up a mcm dresser from a house that was getting flipped. They had the dresser in the garage and it was surrounded by plastic chairs. I found the markings on them and they were original Sam Avedon molded plastic chairs. 20 orange and 20 olive green. I asked what they were doing with all the chairs and they said they wanted to get rid of them because they weren't stackable and took up so much space. I offer them $100 for all the chairs and they glad accepted.

I love the Ekornes recliners, but be aware - peoples’ heads have quite a combo of oils and acids in their hair, even clean hair. Without regular cleaning and conditioning of the leather - say, annually - the leather will eventually break down and you will have a raggedy-ass hole in your gorgeous chair.

We had one, but be mindful to wash it regularly (wipe down with a leather cleaner, super easy) if you want it to last a long time. Apparently the oils from your hair can really wear down the leather headrest.

Histrix t1_j66orpx wrote

I had one for about thirty years and on mine the leather on the armrests started deteriorating. Wasn’t able to buy replacement armrests.

To be fair I never used leather conditioner on them and I’m pretty sure that would have helped protect the leather from many years of lotion covered arms.

That said, they are the most comfortable chairs I’ve ever sat in and would buy another.

I’m 5’8” 220, aka short and fat :) so I’m not sure about someone taller. The headrest on my model (Admiral) is height adjustable though. Of course, only he would know for sure if it works.

They’re super expensive so definitely need to be sure if you’re going to commit (unless you’re lucky and get it free like I did).

ETA: These apparently come in different sizes, so hopefully you can find the correct one that way.

How would you compare the two for comfort and style?

Gerbski OP t1_j661e3q wrote

The Stressless is more comfortable definitely, it reclines as well and just pulls you in. The eames chair is my pick for style but the wife likes the stressless for that category as well, she likes the leather back because “we have enough wood furniture already.” Nothing as timeless as a Herman Miller eames chair imo, stressless comfort is just unrivaled though.

I had looked for over a year for a used one with black leather in a style and base that I liked. I’m not a fan of the standard wood ring bases and figured if I still wanted one after over a year that I wouldn’t regret the purchase.

This is the Opal line? We get those for around $1500 in Norway.

I live across the fjord from Sykkylven where Ekornes is based and let me tell you, no one in Sykkylven knows the real price of furnitures. Traditionally Sykkylven has been a furniture power house with several furniture makers. I think theres around 5 left now, Ekornes the biggest among them. Aaanyway, everyone either works with furniture or knows someone that works with furniture, so everyone gets employee prices on furniture. Every house has top notch sofas, recliners, beds, tables and so on.

CupIsHalfEmpty2 t1_j65j232 wrote

Hey, so I bought a used ekornes stressless chair. Got it home and realized the seat springs were broken. It turns out the seat springs are molded into the seat foam and not replaceable...

Fortunately I found an aftermarket kit and was able carefully cut the foam from the bottom and extract the broken springs. Hooked up the new springs and carefully put everything back together.

Not exactly the best BIFL experience. Glad I got a great deal on the chair but would have preferred if the spring would have been a standard replacement.

lwhite1 t1_j68gf16 wrote

How could you tell that they were broken initially?

1

CupIsHalfEmpty2 t1_j68i4vf wrote

The chair seat felt low when I bought it but I just thought that was the style of this model.

After a couple days I started to think something was up. I can't remember exactly how many but the seat has either four or five springs. I was able to push down on the seat and could feel the center springs push down a lot further and not spring back compared to the springs at the front or the back of the seat.

When I flipped over the chair, you can unzip the fabric. I could see a split on the foam where the spring was broken and the foam over stretched.

Opal, with Paloma leather, and cross base, with ottoman wound run you around $2400 here in Norway, at MSRP, but 20-25% discounts aren't unheard of, so you could get them down towards $1800-1920 then.

I ordered a Wing with Clover blue fabric (not a huge fan of leather, and I don't have pets) and the signature base, got it for around $1650 with 25% discount, estimated delivery in week 7, so I'm excited to get it soon!

As much as I love their chairs, I'll never spend more than about $100 on one as long as I have a cat.

Which means I'll probably never own one.

Needs 5 'feet' on the chair instead of 4 for stability and weight distribution. Withoout rollers it is no good for a desk chair. Sorry to be so picky but I have just went through searching for and purchasing a used computer chair as my old $12 chair broke and it cost me $12.01 for the replacement. lol

This wasn’t bought for desk use, they do make desk bases with rollers though. This is a 4th comfortable seat option for our small living room next to the couch.
