Experience in IMPERIAL Class (Transereo)

I was wondering if anyone's had any experience in Imperial class. Namely, how does it compare to the big boys (CX, SQ, LH, BA, etc...)? Both hard and soft comparisons would be great!

From my experience (more then 20 flights with UN in F) it's brilliant: VIP (ZOLD) lounge, personally supervised fast-track and boarding processes at DME, legendary cuisine from the most famous resto in Moscow - Pushkin, superior drink selection and freshly squeezed juices (even carrot juice ), excellent onboard service as oblygatory. Less service at other airports ... depends on the particular airport.
Seat and meal selections are available via call-center. Limousine service is serving at DME, JFK, LAX, MIA, YYZ, PEK etc. tipically Mercedes-E.
Seats: 4 fully flat beds (about 90") on 773 and 11/12 on 772 and 744. All salons just came from SQ&JL.

My personal verdict: it's more then comparable with BA,LX&LH.

What airline is this? It seems to be IFC, so not SU.

They fly to MIA and I was told that the J fare is upgraded to the Imperial cabin.
