It remains a nice comfortable seat, it has access, storage and is rear facing, sort of ticks the boxes for me.If they’d been a whiff of an upgrade I’d have taken it. I personally find it more comfortable than CS, which i find restrictive, particularly the part where the seat begins that narrowing, which makes side sleeping difficult for me. But what is now unacceptable on the old seat is the IFE, and USB power. The USB managed to add about 5% to my phone battery in 8 hours, pitiful. The IFE screen is beyond dated, scratched and hard to see, refused to stay in place, and could only be controlled with the remote.
