I haven't used it that much, but from my experience it was incredibly difficult/verbose to create any custom designs, compared to HTML/CSS. It put me off so much that I just picked another language to develop my applications in.

Coming from Windows development since Windows 3.0, I have the exact opposite opinion.

With XAML I can make my ideas fly, with Web, despite doing Web since 1998, I rather let our designer do their magic with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, turning <div> into animated drop downs.
