Just to be contrary, I actually don't like the Aeron.

I sit in one 8+ hrs a day and I don't know if it doesn't fit me correctly (I'm 6'4") or what, but I'd prefer a different chair. Unfortunately the only other chair available to me is some terrible ikea chair that is wrong in ever possible way.

For as much as they cost, I thought they'd be way more comfortable.

They come in three sizes, A, B and C. Since you're 6'4" you need size C. You can tell the size of the chair you're sitting in by feeling under the top part. If you're in the wrong size chair, you're probably not going to like it. FYI.
Yep. If it doesn't fit you, it doesn't matter how much it costs. I'm only 6'2" and the Aeron C is a hair short for my legs, so I can well imagine that many 6'4" wouldn't like it.
