Until the motherboard died, I had both GNOME 3 and Xfce on my Wheezy
laptop, and I'd go between one and the other.
I got quite used to GNOME 3. When I started mousing into the hot-corner on
non-GNOME systems, I knew that GNOME Shell had won me over.
But I'm still using Xfce from time to time.

Xfce4 are as often broken, as they are for GNOME, assumed
Why don't you try installing MATE? There is a MATE repo available for
Wheezy: 'deb http://packages.mate-desktop.org/repo/debian wheezy main'
