Looking for a software program to help with home design drawings

I'm looking for a software program or app that let's me work on re-design of home layouts. We often find properties that have crazy layouts that need to be changed (like a bedroom that can only be accessed through another bedroom or a ridiculously large room that should be split into two rooms, etc.) Looking for suggestions on an easy to use, intuitive software program that will let us tinker with layout. It should also allow for specific re-design, like placement of kitchen cabinets, fixtures, etc. There are a LOT of programs out there, but I'm looking for something tried and true. Any suggestions will be much appreciated. Thank you BP community!

    I use Chief Architect's home designer suite. The full suite costs around 500 bucks but you can get the basic module for about 100 bucks and it will have most of what you would use. It's super simple to learn how to use, which is what I like about it, and the 3D fly-through to see how your proposals will work out is great, fast, and easy to use as well. I use it mostly to put ideas to "paper" when I'm thinking about changing the layout of something I buy.
