Depends how much you want to spend. I have a Steelcase Leap Chair and it's one of the best investments I've ever made. Needed something with a lot of support because of my back and it came down to this or an Aeron. Just think that the padding has much better support than mesh does.

Make sure you can get your feet flat on the floor and be comfortable sat upright in that position (some good lower back support helps).  I broke my pelvis, snapped my coccyx off and had compression fractures in my lumbar vertebrae last year (as well as fractures in both knees, breaking my left humerus and fracturing/dislocating my right thumb).  After all that, I needed something comfortable to sit on!
 
My solution was to continue using the really crappy beat-up wooden chair I found in a skip over 20 years ago, but I added a 1" pressure relieving cushion (e.g. like you find in wheelchairs) and use a pillow to support my lower back.  Most comfortable thing I've ever sat in (the pressure relieving cushions are really amazing).

I had an Aeron for 5 years and miss it a lot! I bought an Office Depot Caluzo chair but after 2 years, it's cushion sucks. So, I've been looking at used Aeron's and this Serta chair at Sam's Club for $169, that is unbelievably comfy! I could work for hours and hours in the Aeron, and am aiming for that level of comfort.
 
I have a lot of other studio priorities, so the Leap would have to be used for me!

Something far more embarrassing.  Lost concentration on the M25 and went flying into the back of stationary traffic.  Superman'd over the first car and hit the one in front.
 

Where do you get those "pressure relieving " cushions? OUCH!!!



Quite a lot of places do them, e.g. Amazon.  Try searching for 'wheelchair pressure relieving cushion'.  Mine's a 1" deep one.  They should have individual blocks cut into the foam ('nodular foam').  I highly recommend them for comfortable sitting, particularly if you've got any back issues but regardless.

If you want something that is top of the line for back issues, then you should look at a Lifeform Chair. They are the best of the best for ergo. Expensive though, I dunno what they cost in Europe (they are made in Canada). Here you could get one for the US equivalent of 1000 Euro but it might be more there. I'd seriously consider them though, they are the premiere chair for back issues.

I bought a Herman Miller Mirra from them last year.
They have both new and refurbished Herman Miller chairs.
I got a great deal on a new Mirra after first ordering a refurbished one.

I have a Herman Miller Mirra 2, the best investment I ever made. It has lots of features that make the chair fit to you even to the extent that when you lean forward slightly the chair back follows you.
