Looking at possibly buying new chair, want recommendations

I currently have a pretty old office chair that I'm thinking about replacing. I've used several different chairs before and I don't really have a preference for any specific type, I just want something with decent support.

 

I'm a pretty big guy, 6'3" and 200 lbs, so I would like something that would fit me pretty well. I would also like to stay under 250 USD if possible. (location US)

I have a Bayside Metrex Mesh Chair and I like it a lot. It has good support for my lower back but nothing really for my upper back and head (I'm 5'9" and 150lbs).

I don't have an Ikea near me, only a Staples.

Ikea Markus. I weigh 145kg and am about 187cm, and so far (it's been about a year) no complaints. Chair is comfy, sturdy and since it's IKEA it should have nice warranty. (Here in Belgium it's like 10 years or lifetime, I'm not sure).
