    It should be the first option under the Cog.

    Unless google has a time limit on switching between layouts.

    They give me 2 weeks to switch between old and new layouts...

    Think you only get 2 weeks before the switch is permanent...

    If you use
    https://mail.google.com/mail/h/
    you will get the Basic HTML version, which hasn't changed much.
    You can also install Stylish or Stylus browser add-ons and change the style of GMail in your browser eg Old School Terminal Theme

    I changed mine about a week or so ago ... the option is still there for me to change back under the cog icon.

    An aside. I find it amazing how many companies feel the need to "improve" a perfectly good interface. More often than not I prefer things as they were. Maybe I'm just a dinosaur or Luddite.

    even though mine only changed yesterday, I do not have that option which is a blooming shame. I have been with Gmail for a long time but won't be staying
