In contrast, on a very recent flight on a 320 (seems a new cabin but still old-style seats, namely F-GKXR) things were MUCH better.
Would be interesting to see a study of so-called "legroom" vs seat pitch (and vs weight) for various seat designs. Sensitive info I guess...

After few recent flights in Economy, I do not find the new seats comfortable at all: legroom seems less than in the past and/or the seat in front has some very discernable hard structure (knees not happy).

Ah, very confusing isn't it I did not like the new leather interior, to be precise I did not like the (unavoidable) feel of the seat in front.
