- Is the Consul big enough for a tall person?
- No. The Consul is the smallest Stressless recliner, with a 16-inch seat height and 25.5-inch depth. It suits users around 5 feet 9 inches and under; taller buyers should look at the Consul's larger siblings such as the Stressless Sunrise or Mayfair.
- How does the Glide system work?
- You shift your body weight to recline and the chair follows, and it swivels a full 360 degrees on its base. There are no buttons or levers, and the headrest adjusts with the recline.
- Does it come with the ottoman?
- This listing pairs the Consul recliner with its matching ottoman, which measures about 21.5 by 15 inches and stands 15.5 inches high. Check the listing contents, since some Stressless chairs are sold alone.
- Is Batick leather good for daily use?
- Batick is a corrected-grain leather with a protective finish, so it resists stains and wear and wipes clean. It is firmer and less breathable than Stressless' Paloma or Noblesse leathers.
- How much floor space does it need?
- The chair is 33.5 inches wide including the tray and 25.5 inches deep, and it needs clearance behind for reclining. The ottoman adds about 15 inches of depth in front.
- Can I add a headrest or tray later?
- Yes. Stressless sells matching accessories, including the side tray included in this width figure, and the headrest is built into the back. Confirm the specific accessory fits the Consul frame before buying.
- Where is the Ekornes Stressless Consul Recliner with Ottoman cheapest?
- At Skandinavia Contemporary Interiors, for $2,595.00, as of our latest check.
