For legroom it's OK, as the encroachment of the slide at the emergency exit is far enough in front of you that you can stretch out.
Seat width is a problem. Tightest CO seats I have ever flown (and I don't think I ate that much dim sum in HKG!). Width reduced because of tray tables and video in armrest. Lucky for me, middle seat was empty - my left shoulder literally spilled halfway over into the middle seat.
Window is also mis-aligned. It's farther back than usual, so you have to stretch a bit to see out, and my right shoulder could not use the window well - I was compressed by the cabin wall.
I would still choose this over a normal seat, but only because the middle was free.
Is the seat any narrower than row 16?
