Stressless Admiral Classic Chair & Ottoman
The Admiral has a quietly authoritative quality that sets it apart from softer recliners. Its silhouette is structured and upright, the seat is intentionally firm, and the distinctive stitching detail running the length of the backrest gives it a tailored, purposeful look. This is a chair that feels considered in a room rather than simply comfortable — which is not to say it isn't comfortable, only that it earns its place aesthetically as much as functionally.
The adjustable headrest extends an additional 4 inches, making the Admiral particularly well suited for taller users. The Classic wood base swivels a full 360° while the Glide™ System lets the chair move with your bodyweight. The ottoman completes the setup.

Why You'll Love It
- The firm seat provides a structured, supportive sit that many users — especially those who spend long hours seated — prefer over a softer option.
- The 4-inch headrest extension makes this one of the better-sized options for taller frames in the lineup.
- The tailored stitching and upright proportions read as an armchair first and a recliner second — useful in rooms where you don't want the recliner aesthetic to dominate.
