Looking for a simple programme to layout units in new kitchens based on
location of windows, doors etc.
For example what sizes of units will fit in a given space.

Freeware or reasonably cheap.
Any ideas?

most of the sheds and some builders merchants do free kitchen design, just
measure the kitchen out and let them do the hard work!

Squared paper. Scissors. If you want to be fancy, cut the shapes from
Post-It notes (ensuring each bit includes some of the sticky end).

The IKEA program is quite good - I downloaded it.
What I forgot to mention is that this program is for a friend who makes
cabinet units to fit along with the appliances so he really wants to be able
to lay out the kitchen and get it approved by the owner prior to going
ahead.

Thanks for all the replies to date and the suggestions - this is a very good
group.

Use a piece of paper and a pencil, I doubt whether anything else
would be cheaper.

The IKEA freebie gives you an idea of what the 3D viewing stuff will do. Of
course it only accepts "their" units. Quite handy for giving an impression.
But like Alan I still use paper.

Try the IKEA kitchen planner, available from their website
