Pros:
- No seat in front of you, most private
- Least amount of cabin traffic as galley and lavatory is in the back
- Reports indicating that the feet is not constricted in the semi foot-well area
- Closest for traveling companions, yet still apart for individual passengers
- Served first during meals

Cons:
- No overhead bin until further back
- Last F passenger off the plane, more of a problem if L2 is used
- A bit away from the windows for a good view, row 2 and 4 better in this respect, and some reports preferring the "window" seats vs the "aisle" seats since the seat is a bit further away from the aisle traffic.
- Lack of overhead air vents - although this is actually for the whole plane
- Forward storage closet being accessed (this could be comments from other JAL 744 configuration)
Bassinet position is commonly listed as a con (more likely to be disturbed by the baby or bumped to accommodate a passenger appearing with a baby). Is it a con of JAL Skysleeper Solo 1C and 1H?
