757-300 Row 6, First Class -- lean back?

Just got switched to a 757-300 redeye from LAS-ATL after March Madness. Only row with 2 seats open in first is Row 6. I KNOW I will want to sleep.

Does anyone know if the seats in row 6 have limited or reduced recline due to lavs behind?

Thanks.

Unfortunately, seatguru doesn't say anything about recline being limited - one way or the other. Just like it doesn't say anything about limited recline on the 737-900 in 5C/D, which I know has limited recline from experience on another redeye. Trying to avoid a similar situation here.

Row 6 recline may be slightly limited, as the seat back contacts the wall when fully reclined. Going from memory, the recline is still enough to be comfortable. This will be subject to change as the 753s start to go through the planned reconfiguration, such that there will no longer be a wall behind row 6.

Yeah it's ok, I don't think its 100% recline, but its at least 80% and comfortable enough.

Seemed like 100% when I flew in 6C recently, but it could be less and I didn't notice.
