I used them recently up to Kiruna and was quite pleased. I honestly don't recall the legroom, but we're tall and were quite comfortable. The return we were on left within 15 minutes of an SAS flight so all the passengers pretty much overwhelmed the little Kiruna airport, but I was happy to be on FlyNordic as they had a much better system for handling check-in (evidenced by the lack of a line but full plane) than did SAS, which had a very long and chaotic check-in line.
