Yeah, FreeCAD is great, but I can only think of one project that I've done where SolveSpace absolutely could not work for the geometry I needed and I had to rebuild it in FreeCAD. But that's just a product of what I am building: simple things like brackets, knobs, and replacement lids mostly. I don't need chamfers, drafts, lofts, etc. and I get what I need with minimum of time and effort using SolveSpace.
When I do need those features, complex geometries, or modification of pre-built step files, FreeCAD has never failed me.
