It's built like a tank, ridiculously wide, and has a decent tall back on it. Apparently it's rated for 500 lbs. I find it supremely comfortable, as I can lean to one side, slouch, sit up straight, anything. Sadly, I can't find it anymore so I'm holding onto it for dear life.
I sit and sleep on solid, hard surfaces. None of that springy, bouncy, squishy surfaces for me. My bed is custom build from hard oak wood with a very thin layer of cushioning. And my main work chair has also a solid wood seating area, with some thin cushioning of the base.

Not exactly that but pretty close.
It's surprisingly comfortable and happens to be at a perfect height for me, but not so comfortable that I can sit in it all day. This encourages me to get up and walk around every couple of hours.
Net/mesh chairs are just nonsense for me. Why is that even recommended? Is it because people sweat profusely when they sit?
The trouble with chair recommendations is that the best chair for me isn't the best chair for you. If you are able, going to a warehouse or store of some kind where you can try the chairs out will make all the difference. To answer your q directly: I have tried Herman Millers in the past but they just didn't do it for me, too stuffy and I dislike the arms. I went for a Humanscale Diffrient World instead, it is all me…
I own two "Autonomous ErgoChair Pro" and I'm pretty happy with them. I have a standing desktop and I work standing around 30% of the time, daily.
