Customer Review: PRO??? Not worth the extra.
Brought this having used previous versions of Floorplan and TurboCAD to design an extension. Last time the drawings went straight through planning permission. In this version the bridge software between FP and TurboCAD is non-functional on V9 drawings thus making the ‘pro’ bit useless. Still waiting for reply from avantquest support who neither respond to email nor phone support for this one. (it was also dodgy on V7 & 8 but fixed by patches) I would recomment either getting a version you have seen working on a friends setup or looking elsewhere. Not sure whether I would risk the newer versions in case they have the same reliability problems.
Customer Review: Not for unusual shaped houses
Perhaps unsurprisingly given the price, this software is quite limited. I bought it hoping to do some floorplan designs but soon found that it wasn’t man enough for the job - if you’re house has any unusual features (has more than 3 levels, anything but a regular-shaped roof) then this probably won’t be the package for you. If you’re looking to redesign a single floor area, then this should be fine.

Customer Review: Brilliant torch
This torch is very compact and gives out such brillant white light that looking directly at the light cannot be good for your eyes! We use it for looking in the cupboard under the stairs and for walking at night in unlit country lanes. Its so compact and light you can easily put in in your trouser pocket or handbag. Battery life is excellent as a negligiable amout of heat is produce - all the energy goes to a chip to make the light. A first class product.
Customer Review: Silly price, sensational technology.
OK …..with LED light technology, most of the electrical energy is converted into light, whereas with filament bulbs, most of the energy is converted into heat. This is why I’ve bought several LED torches over the past 5 years because the batteries last 4 or 5 times longer than conventional torches. However, the light output was never a match for a large chunky Maglite 4D cell. However the Luxeon technology incorporated in this torch ( and others in the Lenser range ) defies all logic. It simply makes no sense whatsoever. How can a torch this size ( its tiny!!! ) outperform every other torch I’ve ever owned or seen ?…….. obviously its magic ! Its a daft price to pay for a torch, I know, but it has excellent build quality and the light output has to be literally seen to be believed. However, this torch is most defineitely not suitable for children……seriously !
