I found it pretty rough. Only go for 'proper' berths now. Then again I am longer in the leg and last time I did it there were people at the other end of the carriage talking and drinking cans pretty much all the way to Carlisle. I doubt this happens all the time but fuck that.

It can be hit or miss as you say. Maybe for the return leg it is an option as you'll be so knackered you could sleep anywhere.
If travelling as a pair the berths are a lot better value compared to solo as you can no longer get paired up with a stranger in a sharing one.
Cheapest I've seen is £200 for 2x each way, so 100 each. Not that much more than a seat at £80 odd (assuming that was 1 way)

Sleeper seated isn't too terrible. It is a reclining seat like an airplane. Better than a normal train seat by far.
Usual direction is S. to Glasgow.
