The user interface isn't that much friendly in my personal experience. But yes, coming from Ubuntu and other such tools we have already worked with minimal UI so Xubuntu isn't a deal breaker.

Zorin is very easy to use. As someone who uses both Mac OS and Windows, Zorin almost seems like a combination of both. It's very customizable and has a self-explanatory interface. As a Linux newbie, Zorin is a great place to start without feeling overwhelmed.
