Vueling A321 row 10 seats 2-2 ?

I purchased an IB ticket for a VY flight (TFN-BCN) which allows seat selection in advance. The VY site seatmap shows row 10 as having only seats B,C <aisle> D, E -- no seat A nor F.
SeatGuru doesn't show this config. (It shows all coach rows as the usual ABC/DEF).
Can someone please comment on Vueling A321 (possibly/probably also A320/A319) row 10-ish missing the two window seats, and whether that makes the BC/DE combinations much better for a couple traveling together, or somehow much worse because of some oddity of that row?
(I'm already guessing that the seats may have limited recline as there is an exit row behind).
thanks!

I've moved this thread from the Iberia forum to the Other European Airlines forum, where the Vueling experts hang out.

It's common with A321, LH have a similar configuration where the row next to the exit has only two seats with no recline but more legroom.
It's up to you to decide if the privacy of having only two seats and the extra legroom are worth the limited recline (no recline at all usually)...

Thanks TLVtraveler. Well, we'll find out, and I'll post back (travel date is end of December, so it'll be a while).

Are you sure about that? The IB forum heading currently says "Iberia Group (Iberia, Iberia Express, Iberia Regional Air Nostrum), Vueling, Binter" and while it has little activity, it does have a significant proportion of VY threads I think.

I tend to agree, this thread should be in the Iberia Group forum in my opinion....

Perhaps even rename the subforum to "Iberia Group and Vueling", to make it more visible?

report, Vueling A320, 2-seats row 10D,10E

So, we flew this.
Row 10 has less leg/face room than other rows around it, and there is a flight attendant seat (rearward facing) in the 10F space. Most of the time that seat is not occupied, of course, but my wife found the space claustrophobic. Also, there is no window here, as this row 10 is at the front of an exit door.
On balance, not really desirable seats, although it's hard to say that any seat except the first four rows of Vueling's A320 aircraft are 'desirable' in any case.
