We have what I believe to be Steelcase Leap at my work, and they've been outstanding for 12 hour shifts and 24/7 use for years now. Best office chair I've ever sat in.
Some desireable things to look out for are a back that pivots separately from the seat (major deal-breaker if not), a tensioner on the backrest so that you can lean forward and back naturally without using a lever, adjustable armrests (the more adjustment options the better), the shape of the armrest (convex is better than concave), correct height, correct seat depth, and correct backrest height.
Is that a personal preference or something backed up by science? I ask because I typically really dislike chairs where the seat and back aren't at a set angle. I don't like leaning back and feeling like I'm just laying down.
Definitely personal preference but not sure if backed by science. Though having to lean the base of the seat back with the backrest can't be good for your legs. With the Leap V2, the backrest has an adjustable tensioner and a lock to limit how easily and how far back the backrest leans.
