Stressless are good...but very expensive and not as adjustable. In addition to that, they don't stay put because of that round base, and always need to be adjusted. I know because I had another brand of chair that looked just like a Stressless.
Finally, at least in my 11x13 listening room, the separate footrest was always in the way. Now, if I'm not reclining the chair is just a chair.
