Broderbund 3D Home Architect Home Design Deluxe 6

4 stars (Great product for the price) - I've tried using those $9 dollar products you get in the value sections of shops and they all stink. This product is just a little more and it works great and has wonderful features. The 3D element is perfect and the program is easy to use. The only down side that I saw is that there is a slight (but not much) limited selection of certain accessories, but you can usualy find something that will work. Otherwise, great. 1 stars (3D Home Architect Home Design Deluxe 6) - Very basic program. Would purchase again if price was $20.00 or less just for the basic house layout. 3 stars (Powerful but not user-friendly) - I have been using this product for about six months to redesign several rooms in our house. It is fairly flexible and powerful and has a good variety of colors, textures, materials, etc. to work with. However, don't believe the "intuitive, easy to use" claims made by the company producing this software. I have run into many problems where the program required me to do something unintuitive, such as raise all of the furniture in a room off the floor by 1 inch in order to be able to put a rug in the room. Also, you cannot "nudge" objects using the arrow keys as you can in almost any graphics program, so exact placement of objects becomes a frustrating game of, "Can I let go of the mouse on this exact pixel?" For the amount I paid (which was $20 more than it should have been because of Fry's' typical refusal to honor the rebate that they themselves advertised), it is not a bad program. But it's sad that there isn't anything out there that's much better. ...
