Plan Your Room
Truly freeEntirely free to lay out rooms in 2D and basic 3D with exact dimensions, but there's no paid tier and no real file export; you print to keep a copy, and the save system is widely reported to lose work.
Sweet Home 3D
Truly freeCompletely free and open-source for personal and commercial use with no feature paywall; the only real limit is that the online and mobile versions can't import custom 3D models or export OBJ, which the desktop app handles.
