The most fasicnating thing about Linux mint to me was that it has very robust as well as simple UI. which can be handle from a beginner to a pro.
But the best out of these is were it comes with very very import softwares pre-installed.
It offers a lot of flexibility as well.
The customer support of mint is also good as they are active very often to help you out.
It also come pre-installed with ubuntu which make integration with other linux distros. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
