I personally don't like row 1 and always avoid it, trays in the arm rest are often wobbly, can't keep handbag with me, then of course the main problem being bumped into when the whole plane walks past you esp in 1C, seen people sat there tutting as it happens, people waiting for the toilet standing in your legroom area, it's often cold there too, hand luggage will be stored in lockers behind you. You'll still get served very well in rows 2 or 3.
