United has two versions of 752's with lie flat seats. This version flies internationaly trans-Atlantic flights from the east coast, especially to closer cities in Ireland/Great Britain, premium transcontinental service (p.t.s. or aka PS), some Hawaii flights and occasional hub to hub flights. There are 16 BF seats, 45 E+ seats, and 108 E seats.
16/153 75b https://www.aerolopa.com/ua-boeing-75b
--- FIRST
Row 1 has wider footwells but 3" shorter bed length.
Seats 1E/1F may be slightly darker and quieter than 1A/1B, which are more susceptible to galley lights and noise.
--- ECONOMY
All economy seats share power (2 outlets per 3 seats), and have VOD screens in the seat back.
Exit row seats are Row 7ABC, Row 20, and Row 21. Row 20 seats have limited recline. Row 7ABC has "unlimited" leg room, although there's an FA jumpseat facing those seats (probably out of reach of anyone but the tallest person).
Row 8DEF are bassinet seats and also a bulkhead. There is an additional ~6" cut out at the bottom of the bulkhead for extra leg room.
Row 10A and F and 11A and F are missing a window (you get one next to the seat, but not towards the seat back of the row ahead).

16/160 75s https://www.aerolopa.com/ua-boeing-75s
-- ECONOMY
Exit row seats are Row 7, Row 20, Row 21, and Row 22. Seats 22A and 22F have "unlimited" leg room. Entertainment screen is housed in arm rest. Row 22BC and 22DE have about the same leg room as an E+ seat. These seats do recline.
Row 10A and F and 11A and F are missing a window (you get one next to the seat, but not towards the seat back of the row ahead).

WineCountryUA the wiki says that they have limited (not no) recline. I suspected that this was wrong (do seats directly in front of an EE ever recline?) but since I wasn't sure I didn't want to change it. Should this be updated (and also should it include info about row 12)?
Personally I always just assume that anything in front of an EE row won't recline and therefore avoid those seats, even if they are EE themselves.
21F continues to be my go-to seat; it always seems to be available when I book. It seems that people prefer E+ seats closer to the front rather than having a reclinable seat with EE legroom with the seat in front of you being unable to recline.

1A Footwell info
I’ve read galley light/noise is issue for 1A/B vs 1E/F but are foot wells the exact mirror image of each other?
1E/F is taken but considering 1A over multiple options in 2-4 on redeye transcon.

Tangentially, I am pretty sure 1EF is about an inch or two shorter (in full recline) than is 1AB.

Am booked on the 752 in F on DEN-EWR at the end of the month and EF is showing 3AB and 4AB as blocked, but flight is J4 — any idea why they'd be blocking 4 F seats (but still selling them) and when these will open up?

At least 2 752 seats are usually automatically blocked for crew rest as the a/c is used for int'l flights (Europe), but will open the seats for selection in last 7 days for domestic flights.

1F is my preferred seat on the 752, as long as you don't mind climbing over a sleeping pax to use the lav. 1F is a bit darker than 1A (galley lights) and has the larger footwell.

I'll echo that 1F is actually the best seat. Indeed, the larger foot well, and compared to 1A/B, it sits further back, I found that 1A/B look directly into the galley and is especially disturbing on a redeye flight. 1F is kind of hidden away from the galley, so-to-speak.
As for the window, I sat in it a few weeks ago and I don't recall it being bad in any fashion. There are at least 2 windows, and I think the 3rd is covered by the storage area of the seat.
...I mean, no...1F is horrible. Stay away from it.
