Best Room Planner Apps (Free and Easy)

For most people the best free room planner is a browser tool with a to-scale canvas and a drag-and-drop furniture library, so you can test whether a sofa or bed fits before you buy. Planner 5D and Floorplanner are the easiest free picks; Sweet Home 3D is the only one with no watermark.
