Well, I don't know about my architectural or materials science skills, but "Sweet Home 3D" IS a fairly straight forward tool for playing around with your design ideas. It takes some getting used to, if, e.g., like me, you have no CAD experience. It's interesting seeing your thoughts take on real shape.
I would like to be able to easily define objects as having standard dimensions that I can drop into place. The functionality may be there, but it could be more obvious...
For example,
1. hallways should be a standard width, but room dimensions can vary a lot.
2. A closet object would be useful...
3. I would like to define a standard resizable room that has a user specified number of walls

The Windows installer for this program also installed AVG SafeGuard toolbar on my wife's laptop, which changed many of our web browser settings, will not allow us to change them back to our preferences, and will not uninstall, even by directly running AVG's Uninstall.exe. AVG entries are now all over the Windows registry, and being a Linux user, I'm not comfortable messing with that monstrosity. I'm rating this down at one star because of this mess. In all other respects, this is a great program, but there is no moral excuse for an installer that sneaks additional software past people who might have missed the checkbox (which my wife did) that changes your settings and can't be uninstalled. That's just immoral. I know you gotta make money, but these kinds of things MUST be opt-in only and never opt-out by default.

for a free application it works really great. you can import furniture from anywhere; make your own, etc. and you can export the whole thing as obj, the plan as svg, its great. The user experience inside on the other hand could be better, its not so easy to hit the exact spots on the grid and moving the 2d view is missing the "drag with middle mouse" feature. But those are just small things, I would really recommend this to all my friends if they want to build/design houses

I downloaded this program just to play with it. Little I knew that this piece of heaven was going to be so easy and complete for my needs. Absolutely great piece of software. This is the kind of quality that you will expect from the "big guys" that they so often fail to deliver.

Great program. Our family used it when bought new house in Brazil.

Logiciel performant et suffisant pour vérifier la faisabilité/pertinence de projets domiciliaires. Pas facile de mettre des toits, mais on y arrive grace au forum d'entraide très utile. Au delà de mes attentes pour un logiciel gratuit. Un 2e écran est bien utile.

Excellent, fun, easy and quick to start with. I was able to make my "dream" project in 2D & 3D in no time... Thank you to the developers. I'm sure it will be helpful for realizing that project with professionals (haven't checked that part yet) at least they could see clearly what I want. Haven't tried support but will give a 5 anyway.

Awesome! With no previous knowledge, within 2 hours a simple model can be made from a floorplan, including basic furniture. Great tool!, simple to use

The best for free.

ABSOLUTELY CRAP - ALL I GET IS ERROR MESSAGES AFTER UPDATING. DON'T UPDATE OR YOU CAN'T USE IT.

Fantastic !

Отличное бесплатное приложение для несложного моделирования и проектирования

Hallo in die Helferrunde! Wie kann man das fertige Sweethome-Projekt - das Haus - in Google oder als https oder auch mit einem anderen Programm präsentieren? Kann man NUR am eigenen PC erstellen, anschauen und sich daran erfreuen? Export zu HTML5 funktioniert nicht! Neues Java ist installiert. Wer weiß was? Bin seit Stunden auf der Suche, doch vergebens. Herzliche Grüße von Gitta

After updating to a recent version and a little study, a useful tool.

I have used commercial products, that had more base objects, but the no-crash fast performance of this application is fantastic. It is very easy to use. Cannot thank the developers enough. Great job.

Easy to use once you get the hang of it and very useful tool to have available, thank you.

Best home design program I've ever used and I've used a lot. Turbo Home Plan, Sketchup, SmartDraw and many, many more. Not only is Sweet Home 3D intuitive to use in so many ways, but you can also import models from the 3D Sketchup library, meaning a virtually endless supply of designs. If I had any criticism I would say it's limited on being able to add mechanical and engineering levels like plumbing and electrical. I would happily pay for an advanced version.

Excellent Software to plan the layout of a house. We are now planning to built a new house (a real one), so this software is very helpful to find the perfect layout. The feature to change the size of the furniture is just awesome, so you can easily adopt furniture from the library to the size you need. All changes done in 2D are directly shown in 3D and the feature to walk around in 3D is just fantastic. You can download the software for free and directly use it. Since I am very satisfied and the software helps us a lot a donation is just a logical consequence. Thanks a lot to provide this software.

The project is just awesome! Many thank to the authors!

Outstanding ! Easy to use and it seems to have a great deal of features and possibilities. This is all new to me and I find it very involving and entertaining.

Requires obsolete Java package. This thing needs to be rewritten to free it from dead third-party dependencies. I won't saddle my system with deprecated junk.

Sweet Home 3D Rocks !!

The software is awesome. It is very easy to work with, even a newbie can easily start working with it and understanding things quickly. There are some features lack still there which is need to be improved. For example I got difficulty in drawing custom stair case for my home. An option must be given to the user that he may draw stairs as he draw a wall. Also another feature I think is not there or may be it is there but not easy to figure out how to use it, is the option to draw a home little bit higher than the ground level. Using different heights for one room to another.
