I would recommend the Turning Left For Less review of the Virgin A350 seat which was actually the most scathing review of a freebie I have seen in a long time. Compare with our review (which I'd say was middling) and the God Save The Points review which effectively described it as more impressive than the second coming of Christ would be.
If I don’t like something and I was asked to review it, well. Fair game
Sadly Virgin is still flying that ridiculous seat around. As Raffles pointed out, an enthusiast should be able to pick apart the genuine reviews from those buttering up PR.
