Flew this plane last week on a RDU-LGA route in First Class and I was very impressed.
I had seat 1A which had great legroom. The seats are better than the UA CR7 seats, especially the tray tables and the cupholder built into the armrest. I liked the newer style lighting and the small bins above the A seats as well. Service was better than two class UA as well as we received drinks in a real glass, predeparture drinks and nuts (sadly not warm) in a glass as well as hot towels.
My only complaint was that my tray table seemed to have a downward cant to it and at one point while not paying attention, I let my glass slide off it. Overall however, a big ^ to this plane. Well worth the burned sticker.
