    Product was brand new – still in Apple Box, never opened. Came in record time – saved more than $50! Thank you!

    The software is easy to use and reasonably intuitive to learn for those who postpone using the manual. To date I’ve only designed simple floorplans for a retirement home and found that it is easy to make and change layouts and features. I recommend this for the Mac if you are looking for a low cost design package with excellent features and ease of use.

    This program is extremely user friendly and is great for designing a basic floor plan. However, I was trying to design my dream home, a 3500 sq ft house on a half acre lot, and after only designing the house and backyard (and not furnishing/decorating the house at all), the program transitions EXTREMELY slowly from 2D to 3D views. I simply solved the problem by creating 2 separate files, one is just the house, the other is just the backyard, and this seems to keep the program transitioning faster.

    Sorry to add my voice to the others who found this program frustrating. Many small bugs and large flaws. Trying to make alterations to existing walls was the last straw. I saw this at an Apple Store, and assumed that they stood behind the software they sell. They should take this one off their shelves.

    I’ve worked with CAD software before, but it was Windows based and I needed a program for my Mac (running Snow Leopard). Buying this was a costly mistake, in terms of both money and time.

    It took hours to enter a basic floorplan, due to inadequate help and a less-then-friendly interface, and then my Mac froze and the work was gone. This is the first time in three years my Mac has frozen. When I called tech support, I reached a recording which ensured a return phone call “within 24 hours”. I can’t really stay in one place all day awaiting their phone call.

    The second attempt to use the program resulted in a freeze after about five minutes.

    Obviously, this program has not been adequately tested. It should never have been put on the market.
