Better Homes and Gardens Home Designer Deluxe Description:

Better Homes and Gardens Home Designer Deluxe review:
5 stars (Peerless at the price) - This software is easy to learn and use. I was up and runing the first day. That said any software competance comes from the end-user but the provided CDROM Tutorials, Users Guide, Web and Tech support I was able to make it do everything it is designed to do reasonabley quickly (You get out what you put in)for the more advanced tools.
5 stars (Better Than Most Non Professional Home Design Programs) - Better Homes and Gardens Home Designer Deluxe is easy to learn and even though it has a lot of limits in it you can work around them by being a little creative to get it to do what you want. There are a few problems however, the auto roof tool goes wacky on me when I know that what I want to do can be done, I haven't figured that one out yet and it is slower than than the professional version. It is a great program and is fun to play around with. I am a retired home designer and purchased Better Homes and Gardens Home Designer Deluxe to check it out. It is the best product out in this price range as it has several features as some of the professional products. You can not have it all in this price range and the people who complain about its limits should understand this.
