Flew my first one last week from EWR-LAX.
I've used this seat on the 77W before but wasn't prepared for it feeling more more narrow in a 1-2-1 configuration on the 787. There's definitely limited legroom in the middle. That said, if you're flying with someone the center seats which face forward are a nice way to travel together, though it's really easy to accidentally raise the middle divided without meaning to.

Just did 12+ hours of 787-10 from IAD to PEK. Sat in 7L
In terms of privacy, Polaris is second to none.
in terms of comfortable, current BusinessFirst on PMUA and 787-8/9 is still better when comparing to the 787-10.
The footwell, though narrower seems be deeper than the 772 and 773, so my knees are well under the tray table in the sleeping position. As a side sleeper, my knees hit the tray table each time I turn my body.
I have no problem in the sitting position, but the sleeping position does feel coffin-like not because of the width of the seat but the footwell.
Others may have different experience.
Overall, the 787-10 is a nice aircraft and the Polaris cabin is nicely finished.

787-10 Premium Plus
Req assist from FT Experts!
Just cleared PP for three of us on UA 960 EWR-FRA.
Any advantages between Rows 21, or 22?
(I’ve attempted SeatGuru with no results)
Many Thanks!

- there are no issues with the forward lavs, there is a curtain drawn and traffic is just from the business cabin. Some very sensitive individuals may notice their presences but no worst, no better for Row 20 than any row on other aircraft adjacent to lavs. (Side issue, would be nice if PP was included for the lavs -- but that another discussion)
Row 21, 22 are not adjacent to the lavs, so they are not an issue.
As for Row 21,22 -- there are identical. Row 22 is closer to the E+ cabin and perhaps bassinets. There is a bit of a barrier behind Row 21 which helps. All equal I would go for Row 21.
Note leg rest in 20 are different from 21,22 and taller folks seem not to like them

Just flew this for the first time, EWR-LAX last Friday (8/30/19 4pm) and definitely nice!
Seat 8A, note there's only one window and slightly misaligned. Even this seat which isn't as private as the odd numbered ones, was still plenty private. I couldn't see anyone else when leaning back watching TV or reading.
Good amount of storage space and the direct aisle access is huge. I always prefer a window seat but dread waking someone up to get out.
Great flight overall

Anybody know if the bulkhead 44 DEF is a bit cramped like some bulkhead seats can be?
I have a prosthetic leg and need more legroom, but sometimes it's actually on the contrary at the bulkhead. I have been assigned 44F for my flight to BRU-EWR. Is it better at the other economy+ seats?

Row 30 would be a better choice if you can get it.
