It's currently my daily driver, seems to work fine. Though on my macbook, I can't move the address bar to anything other than the sidebar. ~~Not sure why~~ (I think I just found out how to do that, in the settings, but I'll have to check tomorrow evening, when I'm back home if my hunch is true). On my windows laptop no such issue.
My hunch was true. I needed to dive into the settings a bit more to find that option, now Zen works comfortably for me on my Macbook as it does on my Windows laptop.
Also my daily. I've been a vertical tab person for many years with treestyle tabs and then sidebery. The tab management features in zen without the need of extensions is the primary selling point for me. Everything just works smoothly for my workflow and the UI is well thought out. I haven't had any issues with stability or memory usage since moving over from firefox.
