Not really, both are quite new to me as well.

On a first glanced I prefered sh

However: plumbum works also on Windows systems.

As I have to write some code for Windows, some code for Linux and some 
code for both platforms I think plumbum might be nicer as I can stick to 
one syntax.

So far I used both of them just in very tiny scripts.

Most of my code still uses subprocess.Popen or my own clumsy wrappers 
around it.
