    The video is too fast, in my experience I thought, the video was too fast, often many times I had to pause and figure out what he pressed. Why not say " press F and then left Click " not "and then do this ", because it is hard to figure out what "this" function that serves the purpose. sorry but i kinda regret buying this. Its a good tool, but in my experience the instructions could have been better.

    The first plugin I purchased and the best. Done so many modeling with it and recommend it to anyone who is new to hard surface modeling .

    I'm sure this is a powerful tool, but I'm really struggling to learn it. "Intuitive" is the absolute last term I would use to describe this.

    All the English tutorials are in an extremely thick French accent which is very difficult to understand. The 'documentation' is just more YouTube videos. I've tried following along with the videos, but the creator moves very quickly, seemingly unaware that anyone watching is not going to be able to keep up. The screencast shows mouse/key presses but it requires micro-pausing and rewinding to catch them. Basic principles (like when you should/shouldn't click or right click, or what native Blender shortcuts and UI are locked while you use this) are not covered, which makes getting started even harder. On top of that, duplicating his inputs seems to produce very different behavior from what is shown.

    I thought this looked impressive, and I'm sure it is. But at this point I regret buying it.

      Hi David,
      thanks for this feedback. Reading you I think you didn't see that there was speechless, slow and fully subtitled documentation.

    Not nearly as intuitive as suggested. Also, product crashes 2.82 regularly (and I'm not using CTRL-Z). No conflict with other mods as I don't use any. Needs much better documentation, at least in my opinion.

    I think Fluent is great! I was hesitant to get it because of a previous review reading that Ctrl-Z can cause blender to crash but I've been using it a lot for the past 2 days and it hasn't crashed blender 2.82 once. Maybe another add-on is conflicting with it somehow? Anyway, I definitely think Fluent was worth it since it's definitely a time-saver.

      Thanks for your comment. I fixed the Ctrl+Z problem few months ago.

    You just gotta appreciate a dev who is so responsive and great. I love it, I love the simplicity of it.

    Great tools with lots of power however documentation is sparse and moves very fast with no voice over just text and Holy cow is it unstable if you try using CTRL-Z! Crashed my blend file 4 times in an hour doing that. Stability aside it is a cool addon
