I think NFS requires to have some knowledge for how you want to use it. The defaults seem reasonable, but I also get confused with all the v3/v4 differences etc. I use it at home to connect everything to my NAS and it works very well for me. My export is this:

  /mnt 192.168.8.0/24(rw,sync,insecure,no_subtree_check,crossmnt,all_squash,anonuid=0,anongid=100)

and my client config with autofs is this:

  rxd01 -fstype=nfs4,ro,soft,noatime,nodiratime,intr,rsize=65536,wsize=65536,nosuid,tcp,allow_other 192.168.8.3:/mnt/rxd01

If you know what each option does, how your network is setup and what your server/clients are capable of, you will eventually find the right settings, but it's not a good OOB experience.
