I just recently shopped for a good chair as well. I've used Aeron chairs before and they're great but I really didn't like the mesh feeling.

After digging around, I have decided to go with the Steelcase Leap. http://www.steelcase.com/en/products/category/seating/task/l... I liked this because it is just as configurable as the Aeron (I'm short so these things matter a lot). I liked the fact that i can choose the fabric so it matches my home office. They have a ton of color swatches and fabric types. They have a 10 yr warranty and has good customer service so far. Its all personal preference, but make sure it fits your body. For example, can you clear at least 3 fingers between the edge of the seat and behind your knees. When I sat down on this chair, i just knew this one would be good for me.
