I paid the $25 for the stretch seating on a recent flight from Denver to Vegas, and it might have been worth the extra $$ if the flight attendant had not insisted that, due to the lack of overhead space, the folks in the bulkhead just go ahead and place their belongings (purses, laptops, small carry-ons) under the seats they were sitting in (in other words, in my footspace since I was in row 2). So much for that "extra legroom".

Even when questioned about this rather unusual policy by some upset STRETCH passengers, the FA just shrugged and admitted that "yes, TECHNICALLY, it is your footspace, but I need them stow their belongings in that space anyway."

Definitely won't be wasting my money on that product anymore.
