Stressless Furniture in Knoxville, Tennessee
Tennessee's official Stressless destination. Experience the world's most comfortable recliners, sofas, and chairs at Braden's showroom.
Born in Norway. Perfected Over 50 Years.
Since 1971, Stressless by Ekornes has set the global standard for comfort seating. Every recliner, sofa, and chair is designed and manufactured in Sykkylven, Norway, where generations of skilled artisans combine Scandinavian design principles with precision engineering.
What makes Stressless different is the patented Plus™ and Glide systems—mechanisms that sense your body's weight and movements, then adjust the headrest and lumbar support automatically. No levers. No buttons. Just effortless, personalized comfort from the moment you sit down.
At Braden's, we've been an authorized Stressless dealer for over 20 years, offering the largest selection of Stressless furniture in Tennessee. Every piece in our showroom is ready for you to experience firsthand.
Norwegian Craftsmanship in Every Detail
Each Stressless chair takes days to build. From hand-selected European beech wood to precision-cut Paloma leather, nothing is rushed and nothing is compromised.
Solid Wood Frames
Stressless bases are crafted from cold-cure molded European beech, hand-shaped and finished for lasting strength and warmth. Each frame is tested to support years of daily use.
Premium Leather
Stressless offers over 80 leather and fabric options, including their signature Paloma and Batick leathers—soft, durable, and treated to resist everyday wear while aging beautifully.
Precision Steel
The patented Stressless glide system relies on precision-engineered steel mechanisms manufactured in-house at Ekornes. These are the components that deliver effortless recline and swivel.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Stressless chairs different from standard recliners?
Unlike traditional recliners, Stressless chairs use a synchronized system of springs and foam that responds to your body weight and movement, providing continuous lumbar support that “follows” you as you move.
Are Stressless recliners good for back pain?
Yes. The Stressless collection is endorsed by chiropractic professionals worldwide due to the Plus™ System, which maintains correct spinal alignment and provides dedicated neck support.
Where is Stressless furniture made?
Every piece in the Stressless collection is manufactured in Norway by Ekornes, utilizing sustainable energy and high-quality Scandinavian materials.
