Advice re 2 class 744

Hi folks, this is my first post on FlyerTalk. I am a Platinum QF member but achieved and maintain my status all on discount economy flights (so does my boss, so it's hard to argue). As such, I fly a lot on 747s to/from Europe and USA. Generally I have been choosing a window in the twin seats down the back (view, side room, etc.) . In October I return to Oz on LA~Bris rather Syd or Melb and I note that I'm on a 2-class 747 with standard 2-class plan. QF have given me 26K - row 1 window in std Y (no PE) and I'm a little nervous:
1. While bulkheads mean no seat in front, I hate trying to sleep with feet jammed against the wall. How much space is in that recess they talk about?
2. I'm also nervous re the width of the seats with table and screen in armrest.
I'm just under 6ft and 75kg, so not huge, but I'd love to hear from anyone else who has sat in these seats with comments. Seat Guru warns caution but says "good seat". Cheers,
