Home Designer Suite

I use this software to draw floorplans for renovation, marketing, and construction. It is the best that I have been able to find. I have bought this for three different computers. Tech support actually answers the phone and is helpful when needed.

Not as user friendly as an older model that I used.

If you dont want JUST THE BASICS, dont buy it. Everything you want to do will cost you extra.

This is a good program for any one that is curious about building they own home. There are many options to choose from when designing any space. Not the most expensive or advanced but a good program to get your feet wet.

Bought this software because it is on Amazon, My goto location to buy everything. I have used cad programs in the past and always manage to fumble my way through to what I need. But this program was extremely annoying after hours of working I had only created 10 posts to hold my roof up! and no roof! So i went to punch software and bought home design 21. After about 8 hours on the punch program i already had the whole house laid out and a lot of windows in. No return policy means I just got screwed out of $107.79. My advice, if you are not familiar with Chief architect, then get Punch home design

I received the product about two weeks ago to begin designing a house. First, I have no design software experience as I only surf the internet and use Microsoft Windows /Excel/PowerPoint from time to time.

It is a good program but takes time to learn.

3d walk through is great for visualization of the concept. Paint colors, kitchen cabinets, bathrooms, even where a t.v. might look best on a wall. I also like how it doesnt end with the inside. I can layout flower beds, trees, patios, even landscape lights. You can truly get a look at the entire property inside and out.

Purchased the Home Designer Suite 2020 to assist in the design of new home. It was easy to install and in less than a week I had an acceptable model of my future building project that I could evaluate in 3D format! I does require some study due to the numerous options and details. I contacted the technical assistance number and had excellent response to fix my problem. Saved a lot of back and forth with an architect and great for a DIY guy.

Plumbing fixtures and dimensions are not available. Makes it pretty hard to plan basic space requirements. the product is quite quirky and requires multiple actions to adjust the working drawing. In hind sight, I should have purchased the more expensive product from another company. Whats more aggravating... this product is non refundable.
