Amazon.com Review:
Home renovation software takes a big leap forward with 5 in 1 Home Design, a package that lets you draw an imagined future home or work on altering the one you have--without investing in building materials or architects up front! Divided into a series of specialized applications, this program makes it simple to hone room layouts, design decks, fine-tune furnishing designs, and landscape any size or shape of building lot. And when the individual pieces are polished, 5 in 1 Home Design pulls everything together into the big picture of your dreams.

Unlike many comparable packages, 5 in 1 Home Design provides a fast and streamlined process for drawing floor plans from scratch. Moving wall by wall, rather than room by room, a user can lay out everything in detail. Whether you are reconstructing an existing house or dreaming big, the program's learning process is swift. It is still possible to end up struggling to convince the package that an interior room is indeed inside the house (and thus deserving of carpet rather than lawn), but these glitches are rare and relatively easy to amend. Anyone interested in having a basic plan done both painlessly and fast will love the interface this program offers.

Other tools in 5 in 1 Home Design allow you to walk through the three-dimensional model of your house, print out pieces of a model so you can build it yourself, and fit the home inside and out with furnishings and finishes. You can switch to these tools without ever shutting off the core floor plan, moving to an overhead view of the house and back, then breezing into a furniture-building application. To minimize headaches, all the data on each house is kept in a single file.

In short, 5 in 1 Home Design will help you put together homes just as you imagine them. The power so handily available in this design program makes it an obvious first choice for those new to home design software and a real boon for anyone looking to brainstorm ideas for constructing, decorating, or renovating a house. --Alyx Dellamonica

Use the 3D Home Exterior & Interior Design program to view your home in thousands of subtle paint color choices, or design walk-out basements and split-level designs with the slope tool. When you're ready to landscape your home design, just add your plantings to your existing file. The software lets you landscape without redrawing your house plan. Your results are rendered in high-resolution 3-D, complete with shadows just like a photograph.

Design the perfect deck for your home plan with Ultimate Deck. Multilevel or multistory decks with 3-D photorealistic textures, stairs, railings, object placement, and color capabilities give you the ability to design exactly the deck you want. Deck Wizards walk you through railings, baluster options, and more. Also create objects from scratch or modify furniture from the included library. Change colors, fabrics, patterns, textures, and more, then use your creations to furnish your home plan.

- Just Don't
I bought this program awhile ago, and I absolutely hated it. I no longer have it. It crashed constantly and although it had many good features (landscape, exterior, decks, interior), it was difficult to use...and yea theres plenty of better programs out there

- Very Disappointing
I bought this software to replace an old Visual Home software I have had for many years. I will probably uninstall Punch and re-install Visual Home because Visual Home is much easier to work with. Also, my old software has much better kitchen and bathroom fixtures, furniture and at least offers more garage/shop items to place in the model. The only advantages to this Punch software is the deck design and the fact that you can design additional floors over the first floor footprint. I have not ... Read More

- Keep Looking
Ok, I too bought both 3d home Architect that is marketed by Broderbun and Punch Pro Home Design. The Broderbun product is bad but Punch Pro is horrible. I have read the manual so that is not the problem. While the software is not intuitive, and the documentation is superficial, learning the software is not the problem. It's just plain bad. Standard features in any package like this - 2d (plan view) zooming in and out, undo, selecting a feature to modify, etc, just don't work correctly. Advanced features ... Read More

- It just misses
This is a program that seems to have so much, but then you find all of these stupid limitations that suggest the program was never "play tested". These limitations have made it almost useless to get what you need. Examples (in no particular order):
1. With the CAD tools, you cannot "group" graphic items like you would be able to do with any simple drawing program (let alone CAD).
2. The screen can show the "grid" spacing, but you cannot make a floorplan printout with the grid, which can be very ... Read More

- Punch vs 3d home architect 4.0
Punch is a limited program that is not very intuitive. The walls dont self sguare for a room, door choices are few, closet doors are limited, and measuring is difficult. I went to 3d Home, faster more intuitive, easier to use. Punch was a waste.
