Reply to comment by iamheero in Fresh from Norway, my custom Ekornes Stressless chair by Gerbski

I had one for about thirty years and on mine the leather on the armrests started deteriorating. Wasn’t able to buy replacement armrests.

To be fair I never used leather conditioner on them and I’m pretty sure that would have helped protect the leather from many years of lotion covered arms.

That said, they are the most comfortable chairs I’ve ever sat in and would buy another.

We had ours re-upholstered by a local specialist, it was cool to be able to choose the leather etc but keep dad's favorite chair. Cost as much as a used chair to do, but worth it.
