Once you get the hotkey driven workflow and the, personally amazing, non-overlapping windows it's super fast to use. I'm much faster of an artist in Blender than 3ds Max or Maya. I do admit that it took awhile to learn, but since I've been using Blender which is since before they went open-source, I became accustomed to some of it's unique features. I will admit somethings are horrible in the UI, like a hotkey available but not a menu item. Or the Keyframe Type being in the Timeline but only viewable in the Dopesheet. (I argued with the developer to no avail.) But the idea of the interface, with non overlapping windows just works.
