pros and cons:

I thought this program would be perfect for my do-it-yourself-er husband. We could visualize different scenerios for our home.

of the features are well labeled and easy to navigate (not to mention
a very complete help page), however, many of the details will require
patience and doing the research through the help section do
effectively use the program.
