Trying to design a kitchen... looking for good on-line planner

[doneill]

Hi Everyone,

I'm trying to design a new kitchen for my home and I'm looking for a tool or piece of software that would be ideal for the job, what I need is:

• Flexibility, the ability to add curved corners/units, tiles, styled and coloured finishes
• Ability to view the plan in 2D and 3D to ensure I put together a design I'm going to be happy with
• Something easy to use/intuative

I've plaid with a few online free tools, they either seem to be incredibly slow, limited in the style/options for units, geared towards generating a quote/business.

I'm serious about getting this right and don't mind actually forking out for the software if I know the results will be OK and give me something I can show the misses and kitchen fitters at least as a starting point.

Any recommendations appreciated and I'm interested to see examples of what others have done.

Cheers
Darren

Edit: it doesn't need to be an 'on-line' tool, just realised I can't edit the title

Why not visit your local Howdens branch - they will CAD it for you and you can view the design online

Sketchup, free, easy peasy and awesome, look on YouTube if you need some guides to get you going.
