The Herman Miller Coyl is a very handsome and modular gaming desk

Key points

• Legendary furniture maker Herman Miller has tried its hand at gaming desks before.
• However, its latest effort looks like a big step up, as the Coyl features an even more sophisticated modular design along with gorgeous details including a wider variety of finishes and better cable management.
• While it probably won't come as a surprise to anyone who has seen the price of an authentic Eames Chair, the Coyl certainly isn't cheap.
• It starts at $1,095, but its cost rises to $1,635 in its "primary configuration," which includes an upgraded desktop, extended range legs, a shroud and a cable management trough.
• That said, from where I'm sitting, the Coyl looks like a nearly ideal desk for work, gaming and pretty much anything else.
