Things that are on the pricey side but worth spending it for because of amount of use and longevity:* Herman Miller chairs.

I'm 6'2, I've got the herman Miller cosm high back, I like it, it's comfortable but I'm always swiping at my cat who wants to get my attention by putting his claws in my back...
