I have been searching for software that I can use to design kitchens and baths for a few different properties that I own. I have posted this question here and elsewhere in the past under a different user name. The problem that I have been having is that the software that I did end up buying before is just plain too hard to use (in my opinion).
I found something online called Plan3D, and I bought it a few days ago. So far, I like it and I am learning to use it. I am finding it much easier to use than everything else that I have seen.
When I went to the Plan3D website to read about it, it seemed like the only option was to go ahead and buy it, and I ended up doing that. Their website says that it costs $15.95 to buy it and use it for one month, or $35.40 for unlimited use of the software for one year. I took a chance and did the one-year option.
After I signed up, I realized that there is a way to try out the software for free. The free version allows you to do everything that the paid version does, but you can't save your work. So, in case anyone wants to try it out and play with the software for free, here is a link to do that:
One drawback that I do not like about the Plan3D software (as a paid user) is that there does not appear to be any user group or forum where users of the software can post questions and help each other in figuring out and using the software. That's unfortunate, and I hope that at some point to company that created the software will set something like that up. I think that would be a huge improvement.
Since there is no Plan3D user group that I could find, I decided to set up a Plan3D Yahoo Group at:
NOTE: I don't work for the company and I don't get anything out of this whether people buy or use the software or not. I'm just passing on this information.
Also, if anyone knows of other kitchen and bath design software that they would recommend or suggest, please post that here.
