I'm a very, very big dude (6'2" and around 375lbs). That combination means that chairs are generally too small and too brittle; my last chair ($300 or so) lasted less than 6 months. Then I discovered this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000PWGZKW/ref=as_li_ss_til?tag=ih...; (Warning: referral link)
It's large enough to accomodate me very comfortably, it's built like a tank, it's adjustable to hell and back, and it's less than $400. The casters that come with it seem to be solid as well, though I replaced them with a set of nice rubber ones that would glide a bit better under the weight.
It's held me well for around 6 months now with no sign of letting up, and I have very few complaints (namely, that the headrest adjustment is done via discrete notches rather than a continuous adjustment). Can't say enough good things about it.
