Have you used Firefox's pinned tabs[1]?
I have just two bars[2] for either browser, enough real-estate for me (wish I had a high resolution though).

Again, Firefox has no portable way to remove window decorations like Chromes does. There are Windows-only extensions, KDE-only extensions, and unreliable Gnome extensions.

May be you should go for speed dial extension. It lets you set bookmarks in a newly opened tab. Just open new tab and click on the required bookmark.
1) Chrome's behavior where you get bookmarks bar in new tabs is far more useful.
2) Even without the bookmarks' bar, I have 4 bars (window decorations, menu bar, tab bar, URL bar), whereas Chrome has 2 (tab bar + window decorations, URL bar).
Screen-space is still wasted compared to Chrome, and you don't get bookmarks in new tabs.
