Please help a semi newb, just want a usable device

So I used to root phones years and years ago. HAvent felt the need since.

I just got this the tab s 8.4. Lovely tablet, fast ,good build quality, etc. But I've been using nexus devices since the nexus S. Samsungs interface has me wanting to throw this tablet again the wall.

I just want a stock android experience on this otherwise wonderful tablet,

I looked a bit through the android development section and realized how lost I was. I just want to know the easjest way to get rid of this awful interface so I can run vanilla android.

Is that going to a require a root and rom flash? And there programs out now that do it for you so your back end involvement is mimimized?

Please point me in the right direction of what I need to do to have this wonderful tablet running stock android.

Any help is much appreciated. If someone really helps me out and walks me through the process I have no problem throwing them a few bucks on paypal. Just want this tablet to run the way I want it.

Thanks for your help. Feel free to text 561 808 9694 for quicker response as I may forgot to check this as often as I should.
