Easy to use-But very limited
I bought this and the Punch interiors software. This software is easy to use compared to Punch, but I suspect thats partly because H&G is very limited in options. For instance in Punch you can design your doors exactly as they are. In H&G you choose a style and have a few options. Punch also has a large library of trees, shrubs and plants to use to landscape your design. H&G only has potted plants. With H&G there are few backgrounds to use, and most look like they were taken from the west coast...

Limited
As another reviewer said, the furniture selections are very limited and fairly lame in appearance. That includes lamps, rugs, accessories etc, too. You will not be able to duplicate a space that you see in the design magazines, but you will be able to get a general idea of what your space will look like in terms of color combinations and furniture arrangement.The object selections are just not comprehensive enough. The software is fairly stable, but slow ( I am using a 1.7ghz computer with almost...

Good software and fun, too
I have not spent tons of time working with the program yet, but have done enough to know that the learning curve is reasonable if you are somewhat publishing program literate.

Not usable as intended
I tried to like this product.As previous reviews have said it has significant design limitations.If you only need a 2D floorplan there are better tools for the same money or less.The object libraries that come with the tool - furniture, fabrics, etc. - are really lame.This limits it's value as an interior design tool.I did not attempt to return it so I cannot comment on their return policy....

Should be called CAD for Dummies....
I was a little skeptical about this program- until I tried it last evening for the first time. I am really impressed.....I did not even use the tutorial before I dove in and tried to play a bit.I created a single room in less than 3 minutes, using simple walls, doors, windows, and a fireplace.Adding flooring and coloured walls was so easy it was almost sinful!LOLI am most anxious to do more with the program and learn about all its capabilities.Today I watched the tutorial and was really surprised...
