My opinion was based on the ride; I haven't found the seat space (row 12) or noise to be objectionable. The E145 has pretty high wing loading, making "turbulence" more noticeable. I've been pitched around pretty good in the E120 but still didn't feel as impacted as on the E145.
I guess it doesn't help that it's all been out of/into IAD and various delays and problems colored my impressions
