 Very Frustrating January 13, 2008
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I tried to use this product in order to create some visualizations for our kitchen redesign. After sepnding a lot of frustrating time learning the product and building up the room dimensions, doors, etc... I found that the library is EXTREMELY limited in terms of the types of sinks, ranges, etc... you can put in. The result it it is worthless for actually visualizing what appliances, cabinet colors, etc... would look like. The product may be fine for laying out rooms and the like but I would have expected a version called "interior designer" to have a *much* greater selection of objects to be even mildly useful. I'm returning it if I can.
 Easy to use! January 13, 2008

I designed a bathroom and a kitchen remodel using this software. The bathroom is completely done and the images from this software really helped. There were no surprises. We did change around the plan many times before construction, but after looking at the images we were very sure of what we were getting. The kitchen will be started soon. I have been trying to imagine the kitchen layout (not a big change) for about 8 years. This software allowed me to move things around easy, then see a picture of it from any angle. One big help is the web site has a forum. If you need to find out how to... show a 5' square skylight, with a beam in the middle, and a ceiling fan hanging from that beam... some one on the forum has already done it. Just search for what you need and a step buy step description is right there.
Love this product! January 8, 2008

I have had this product for about a month and I love it. I am still learning new things every time I use it. I would recommend this product to others.
Excellent Product for the Price! December 8, 2007

We are remodeling our kitchen and bathroom and we bought this so we could make better decisions before we drop big bucks and start knocking down walls. Our architect put together schematics and a cardboard model but Interior Designer brought it to a new level by giving us a full color 3D view of the end result.
Interior Designer makes it incredibly easy to layout the walls, add doors, windows, and fixtures. It's super easy to click and drag cabinets, refrigerators, and other appliances into the design.
The product is not perfect - there are some constraints that make it difficult to place appliances where they barely fit or add custom geometry that's outside the bounds of normal designs - but for $50 I think this is an incredible product.
Using interior designer, we got a MUCH better feel for our finished remodel. Well worth the price.
Nice value for money November 21, 2007

This is a nice product, require very little training. Choices for furniture and appliances are less but good enough to give you the idea.
Drawing curved stairs has limits only few options are there.
Customer service is good and received email response within 12 h.
If you want to draw in metric units (m, cm) you have to start the plan as metric and cannot convert inch to cm units once the plan is drawn!
