well, lxde is basically a combo of different exisiting projects such as openbox, pcmanfm, leafpad, xarchiver + some of their own apps.

1. What did you like or dislike about this

Never used lxde but i'm a huge fan of openbox (the window manager), it is extremely elegant. ultra fast and simple but very powerfull yet and low on RAM. configuration is done through a xml file but there are some apps to help you (obmenu or obconf). i guess lxde projects includes some of those apps or variants. in addition, nothing can beat, in my opinion, the right click menu under the mouse cursor (all the *box do that, xfce as well), it is _very_ efficient and fast.

in any case, the best way is to give it a try.
