What kitchen layout planner software do you like?
Comments (3)I liked the software on ikea.ca. You don't have to use their cabinets, but it's GREAT to use software that lets you switch between layout and 3D view - that's where you can evaluate sightlines, which IMO are so important. You can also email the planner to yourself and then share the link with others in case they want to alter the layout....See MoreAny free software for kitchen layout?
Comments (3)If you have a PC (there is no Mac version) and have upper cabinets that are either 30" or 39" tall, with standard size widths, then I think that the Ikea software would be faster/easier to use. The Google Sketchup is more challenging, and you definitely need the tutorials, but the wonderful thing about it is that many folks have uploaded libraries into the "warehouse" so you can use pre-made models. I linked to a 3D Warehouse page having searched for "Kitchen Cabinets" - you could also search instead for search terms like "Kitchenaid" or "microwave" - lots of creative people out there.

Comments (4)Ikea would shut down on me right in the middle of a layout. I finally did my floorplan with Google SketchUp. The learning curve is looooong, though and it is not intuitive....See MoreKitchen layout help
Comments (7)Thanks Buehl. I hope your daughter is doing better. I could not post pictures the last two days as it was my sons birthday and we had party for him today and am totally exhausted. I really appreciate the time you have taken to draw out the two layouts. I dont think the Island would work out because of space issues. The second lay out could work. I really would love a Island or Peninsula and tried talking My husband into it but he is totally against it. He likes the open feel of our house and does not want to change it. thing is we wont stay in this house for more then 3 to 4 years so for resale point of view the openess is going to make the kitchen/family room look bigger (atleast according to my husband and a realtor friend we talked to). I know that leaves does not leave room for much changethere layout but I am trying to see if I can increase the counter space and at the same time keep some pantry. Our current pantry is 36" wide so I was thinking if we could make it 18 or 20 inches then we could increase the counter space by 16" and at the same time have a small pantry. Do you think a pantry of 18 or 20" is useful? What our cabinet maker is suggesting is simillar to plan1 you suggested with out an island and in place of the Pullout pantry we would have regular cabinet with space for microwave in the upper cabinet. Let me know if you have any suggestions. I really appreciate the time you are putting into this to try to help me....See MoreBuehl
