How can I tell what model my chair is?
To tell what model your chair is, first look under the seat or on the legs or base for markings. Some makers, like Herman Miller and Steelcase, mark their chairs with their model numbers or model names. If you don't find information about the model on your chair, research the maker using trusted online resources. By examining catalogues and image galleries, you can often determine your chair model.
