With its Golden Gate Bridge-inspired shape and bold color options, our <a href="http://store.hermanmiller.com/Products/SAYL-Chair" target="_blank">SAYL chair</a> is beautiful enough to share the spotlight with star-packed movies like <a href="http://www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2012/04/designing-the-hunger-games/255317/">the <em>Hunger Games</em></a> and buzzy TV shows such as <a href="http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/home_blog/2012/06/true-blood-the-authority-suzuki-ingerslev.html" target="_blank"><em>True Blood</em></a>. But how does the Yves Béhar-designed seating stack up in the every day? Take a look at how this affordable, ergonomically supportive, and ecologically responsible chair performs in a few real-world home offices.<span id="more-16936"></span></p>
<p><a href="http://www.hermanmiller.com/lifework/home-office-tour-kate-baxter-of-fabric-of-my-life/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-16332" title="FOML01" src="http://www.hermanmiller.com/lifework/wp-content/uploads/FOML011.jpg" alt="" width="480" height="599" /></a><br />
<a href="http://www.hermanmiller.com/lifework/home-office-tour-kate-baxter-of-fabric-of-my-life/" target="_blank">This new SAYL</a> recently became part of the London-based workspace of interiors stylist, writer, and publicist Kate Baxter of the blog <a href="http://fabricofmylife.co.uk/" target="_blank">Fabric of My Life</a> &#8212; and its new owner was sold on its benefits right from the start. Kate explains: &#8220;&#8230;the very first time I sat down to work in it, I was the most comfortable I’ve ever been sitting at my desk.&#8221; (Photo: <a href="http://www.hermanmiller.com/lifework/home-office-tour-kate-baxter-of-fabric-of-my-life/" target="_blank">Kate Baxter</a>)</p>
<p><a href="http://www.treehugger.com/eco-friendly-furniture/the-sayl-chair-really-is-the-best-for-the-most-for-the-least-product-review.html"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-16939" title="sayl_treehugger_812" src="http://www.hermanmiller.com/lifework/wp-content/uploads/sayl_treehugger_812.jpg" alt="" width="480" height="342" /></a><a href="http://www.treehugger.com/eco-friendly-furniture/the-sayl-chair-really-is-the-best-for-the-most-for-the-least-product-review.html" target="_blank">TreeHugger</a> design editor Lloyd Atler doesn&#8217;t use office seating &#8212; he instead opts for a standing desk &#8212; but his wife Emma does, and <a href="http://www.treehugger.com/eco-friendly-furniture/the-sayl-chair-really-is-the-best-for-the-most-for-the-least-product-review.html" target="_blank">she reviewed this SAYL chair</a> for him on the eco-focused website.</p>
<p>&#8220;There are so many ways to adjust it that it&#8217;s quite easy to make it fit you properly,&#8221; Emma says. &#8220;You can get your back right up against the mesh for support and it&#8217;s comfortable enough to sit in all day.&#8221; The only downside? &#8220;The cat loves it too, and I occasionally have to wrestle him out of it to get my work done.&#8221; (Photo: Emma Alter /<a href="http://www.treehugger.com/eco-friendly-furniture/the-sayl-chair-really-is-the-best-for-the-most-for-the-least-product-review.html" target="_blank"> TreeHugger</a>)</p>
<p><a href="http://www.amodelrecommends.com/2012/07/24/sitting-comfortably/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-16946" title="AModel78188_n" src="http://www.hermanmiller.com/lifework/wp-content/uploads/AModel78188_n.jpg" alt="" width="480" height="480" /></a><br />
She&#8217;s a fashion model by trade, so <a href="http://www.amodelrecommends.com/2012/07/24/sitting-comfortably/" target="_blank">Ruth Crilly</a> has to have good posture to make a living. But it wasn&#8217;t until the arrival of <a href="http://www.amodelrecommends.com/2012/07/24/sitting-comfortably/" target="_blank">her SAYL chair</a> &#8212; and instruction for adjusting it to fit her &#8212; that she learned how to not slouch off the runway, too.</p>
<p>&#8220;With the back tilted forward but set to &#8216;free float&#8217; it’s like having continuous, gentle support for your back, neck and shoulders &#8212; you’re right where you need to be, right over the desk,&#8221; she states. &#8220;But instead of slouching your back makes contact with the chair back, guiding it into a long, upright position!&#8221; It&#8217;s helped Ruth stay comfortable during long days sitting in front of a computer and writing for her website, <a href="http://www.amodelrecommends.com/2012/07/24/sitting-comfortably/" target="_blank"><em>A Model Recommends</em></a>. &#8220;I can’t tell you what a difference this is making,&#8221; she says.
