My Review 

Not much creative freedom and it won't work correct with common CSS.

It looks like it is easy, but when you have experience with other editors it's "up hill" to make a proff. website and "up mountain" to make changes and updates on a existing website.

The visual editor don't work on HTML5 and it can't show all CSS controlled stuff.

I think it's a modernised old fashined editor which could be usefull for newbees, but with ambitions of creative freedom it's not very usefull.

Would you recommend this to a friend? 

No
