I also don't understand controls. The one closest to the seatback raises it to seating position while the middle button to some level of horizontal. Not sure what the third button is supposed to do, since all it does is shift the seat back and forth when not fully horizontal. There is no way to control the back and leg portions of the seat separately.

Anyway want to see if anyone else shares my opinion, and could explain what that third button is supposed to do.
I would take it even further than Goldorak and claim that this is the first negative post about BEST that I have seen anywhere. The actual seat can be discussed down to personal taste of course, but the overall experience as Goldorak points out is light years ahead of NEV4/old cabins.

But hey, this is a debate and we can of course disagree
