Ergonomic Recline

The Stressless Wave Sofa has the best recline that we have ever experienced on an adjustable sofa. It is smooth, simple, supportive and supremely comfortable. As you recline the sofa naturally supports your back, increasing the lumbar support and the angle of the neck rest to reach a natural and comfortable reclined position for watching TV or reading a book. At this point simply lift the headrest you activate the full recline feature, allowing you to recline further into a sleep position, with the lumbar support and neckrest adjusting accordingly to suit your new position.

Leather Guide

There are 4 leather grades for the Stressless recliner. Each have been treated differently to suit individual tastes. To help you choose we explain the leathers below.

Batick - a corrected, pigment-improved leather, which has had most blemishes removed. Batick is a heavy-duty leather that has a protective layer of lacquer that simplifies cleaning.

Cori - a corrected, pigment-improved leather, with most blemishes removed. Cori is thicker and has a larger pebbled grain than Batick. Cori is a heavy-duty leather with a protective layer of lacquer to simplify cleaning. Some Cori colours have a slight two-tone effect the livens up the colour.

Paloma (a popular choice) - a slightly corrected leather which means that some of the natural marks, scars and insect bites can show through. This gives it a more authentic, natural look and feel. A thin coat of lacquer simplifies cleaning and gives some protection. Due to its soft, natural, comfortable feel and range of colours. Paloma is a very popular choice.

Noblesse - the most exclusive leather in the range is a full grain semi-aniline which means fully penetrated dye and has only a very thin protective coating. This allows the leather to keep the natural softness and warmth that characterises a first-class leather. Minor colour variations and natural marks can occur. Noblesse will gain the most character of all the leathers over time, will feel the softest to touch but will require a little more maintenance that the alternatives.
