I've had mine a few days and I'm really pleased. I kept the cost down by opting for the all black and getting the height adjustable arms (not the 4d) and leaving off the additional lumbar support on advice from the sales person, but got everything else. The chair was originally designed without additional support and it works just fine. The back is surprisingly comfortable and the seat is firm but comfy. Would definitely recommend!

Oh, and it has a 12 year warranty. Only chair you'll need for a decade.

Great review! I got an Aeron in 1999 and it remains in excellent shape for my spouse now working at home. Need to replace the foam lumbar and foam seat pan ring because they wear out over time, but it is still rocking otherwise. I just ordered a Sayl from HM for myself bec/grad school efforts will be home-based for foreseeable future. Hope you still enjoy your chair.

Just ordered the black version, used to have an Aeron at my old job, but id say the Sayl meets the max price id pay for a chair. Great review man, much appreciated!

Finally a gaming chair that is not a racing seat! *checks price* Ok looks like I'll be getting a race car chair now..

nice vid keep up the good work

Thanks for this video. I bought an all black Sayl about a month ago. Your review helped me to decide which chair as I was looking at loads of them. The Sayl isn’t a big monster chair as you pointed out. Just big enough and doesn’t take over the whole room. Super comfy and I just love it. So thanks a lot. Sorry I do not know your name.

i ordered this chair a week ago for $725. i canceled my order because now there is a spring sale and it cost $616. im so happy that i canceled it in time haha

Just got mine! Black and red. It’s amazing.

beautiful chair

I still use a flippin 100 year old rocking chair for my gaming Now this would be an upgrade

Hey nice setup, what was that pre-amp you were using with your microphone??? Good vid for the chair!

The arm rests also turn in and out, and the chair has a forward leaning position. I've had one for about a month and it's ascendant! Great chair.

Hey, thanks for the review. How is it a year since?

I have a Sayl and its a really great chair I plan to have for a long long time. I suggest going with the non-gaming version. First of all you dont have to pay for the "gaming" markup and the regular version comes with more customization options for ergonomics and colors.

I like your room. Look tidy and clean.

You dont get the hype you deserve 👊👊🔥👑

Any updates on this? Do you still like it as much?

Great first impression video, would love to hear your thoughts in a full review. Purchased the red gaming version and waiting for it to ship :)

Kind of hard to tell, but is that seat the gray or black version? What was the black friday deal out of curiosity? May have to wait for the next one..

The Gaming Sayl where i live has the Medley fabric instead of the Sync fabric, is it still worth getting over the regular Sayl? The regular Sayl uses the Cosmos fabric. The cost difference between the two is about 37. Both don't come with the adjustable lumbar support.

hi, is your chair noisy ? specially when your back touches the back of the chair i get a clicky squecky sound so when i move around a lot its very annoying.....

I have been sitting on it for the last 2 days, and I feel the net back is not soft and is unconfortable.

cool chair

Is paying the extra $50 for high height adjustment worth it im 6ft

Yo, where's that long-term review at @Olli43?? On the fence about buying one, would love to hear how you still feel about it :)

Funny story, I notice the existence of Herman Miller on a book I was reading, Blink by Michael Gladwell, and also I'm that crazy animal crossing gamer, so this chair in teal is a YES for me!!!

What is this channel now? I thought you weren’t posting on here anymore?

What brand is your desk?

Please do more reviews/review the chair at a later date 👍

How you doing with this so many months later ? Also what’s your height

Hey dude, had a look through your vids and didn't see a review, just wondering if you liked it or not? Cheers P.s. of the Sayl reviews I've watched so far I really like this review style the most!

what is your camera arm mount thing? :o

Are the arms removable?

6:21 ive got this same pinky, keyboard to blame I think.. I bet when you put your hand in a natural position it closes automatically doesnt it??

How tall are you?

How will we get extra FPS ..... it doesn’t have RGB 😑😆

Cool chair, EVEN cooler ollie, making a vid! Keep reviewing stuff ill keep watching x

its not a gaming specific chair, it existed as an office chair before. The gaming version is just the colorschemes ;)

With the 12 year guarantee the amount of value you get out of this is probably better then an ikea or staples chair which will bairly last 5 years. Embody, Aeron and Cosm are expensive and there you definitely pay a premium for the extras you get but saying the Sayl is overpriced is borderline stupid for what you get

I have love-hate relationship with Sayl. The seatpan has a very weird shape, so you posterior is kind of hanging off it and is sandwiched between the plastic backrest and the seatpan which is not comfortable at all. This chair has no vertical position. The default position is reclined around 15-20 degrees. I looks like it's S-curved, but in reality the curve is so low, that you basically always seat recline and that causes neck strain. If you want to seat kind of upright, you have to use forward tilt. The problem is that this places armrests and seatpan in a very awkward position, reminds me of riding a motorcycle with clip-ons. The tiltlimiter is there, but the spring in this chair even at the lowest setting is so strong that the seat won't recline even to the first "tilt-lock" position if you weight 63 KG or less (neither me, not my girlfriend can put it to tiltlock position with just body weight, we have to flex leg muscles to do that). I have to put couple of ankle weights to the backrest to make it work more or less properly. I have no idea how HM designed this chair, but it does not follow the curvature of human spine and does not let you seat in an upright position without slouching. I always find myself slouching in this chair and trying to find comfortable position instead of working. I try to give it a chance everyday, but end up switching back to either ikea work chair or a regular chair. Anyone buy it from me? I am in Portugal.

Great video . . . . . BUT I am really intrigued as to EXACTLY what makes a 'gaming chair' different from an 'office chair' ? In reality the truthful answer to this is 'absolutely nothing' other than marketing purposes???

Of the Herman Millers that I can tell this one gives the most ASS Support (Firm) aside from perhaps the Embody but the Mirra and Aereon are less supportive and more cusion like. Firm is what I like/snjoy.

Does the seat get warm super fast ?

for a chair that costs over £500 you would expect it to be good

I think the HM Logitech G embody chair is by far the best out in the market right now. I was able to find one brand new for $1100 shipped to my door. I love my embody chair.

Hi dear! Can I ask how tall are you?

12 year warranty damn.

wait, i thought this was a channel for live streams. what is this video?? i'm so confused as to what to expect from each channel xD

What happened to George? I miss watching you guys play together

Approved comment section test

I have one of these except I stole it from my dads office lmao. I love tho it’s great

Chair

herman miller doesn't use headrests ever.... that's my only complaint

Plz do a review of the chair in a month or so.

If you're over 6 feet tall I would suggest you look elsewhere, I'm 6'2" and I found this chair to be rather uncomfortable...the whole thing just felt too small - I couldn't make it tall enough to get my legs at a comfortable angle, I couldn't slide the seat pan out far enough to accommodate my the top half of my legs, and the back of the chair was too short and pressed right under my shoulder blades.

Can you lock it when you lean back? Like it stays back till you unlock it again to sit normal. Couldn´t find any answer.

I want to say something

but theres no neck support tho..

The design is nice but looks a bit cheap for the price

For 1195 it better fucking hover

Hi lol

what make a chair gaming? gaming desk? gaming everything......is this just a marketing thing??

£500 for a chair?! Is that a normal thing 😂. Only 17, and stuck with a rip-off GT Omega chair (GT Force, lol), so that's a genuine question.

Hard rubber = Silicone

I just broke my 1300$ chair from Ligne Roset.

First

m

£500 though

That chair looks like some kind of cheap chair for kids

I hate this chair is worse than my old Mira :(

that plastic shit cost that much?!

What a terrible review
