I am surprised how much of a difference it made for me but I really like it on my Voyage and don't think I would go back to a recessed screen as long as the Voyage or Oasis are available. (I also have a PW2 for my kids and I can't stand reading on it, partly for the recessed screen and partly because of the lack of buttons/squeeze to change page feature.)
Kobo was the first company with a flush screen ereader, the original Kobo Aura. As soon as they announced it I ordered one. I've bought a couple more on Ebay since then. They're very nice devices. The front light isn't as good as that on Kindles, it's much less even. But it's the kind of thing I notice when comparing and never notice while reading.

This is the vendor I bought from on Ebay:

They were in perfect condition with good batteries and came in the original box. A few others in this forum have bought from them with similar results.
