I thought it was fantastic - a significant step up from Y and the DUT definitely made the sale for me - when not going CW (i.e. personal travel, westbound TATL) I'd pay for W over Y now (if the difference isn't too crazy).
I was surprised too, the two reports are in this thread:

Now I'm wary of diverting the thread from the main line of argument, however these LGW's refits are potentially the future shape of WTP. From the official BA photos the new cabin looks quite impressive, but from the link above, not everyone is happy with it. There are some differences with the LGW seat judging from the photos.
