List of Sims 4 Stuff Packs and Features Review

It’s no secret The Sims 4 has many DLC’s (Downloadable Content) and as of this posting there are 18 Stuff Packs. These are smaller DLCs that add a variety of new items, outfits, and game options. The cost for these packs is around $10 USD and when they are on sale you can get them for as low as $7 a few times throughout the year.

Below is a review of the Sims 4 Stuff Packs, organized based on what I found to be the most enjoyable and generally useful, along with their notable features. I recommend exploring each pack’s features in more detail to determine which ones align with your own interests and gameplay style.

Tiny Living Stuff Pack

Tiny Living allows your sims to live in tiny homes with minimalist designs, saving space and reducing bills, which allows you to build skills quicker and make Simoleons at a steady rate with the Tiny Lot Type, which is very useful for new sims.

The Tiny Living Stuff Pack introduces Tiny Home Lots, which are smaller than the standard-sized lots in the game. These lots are perfect for players who want to build and decorate tiny homes. Learn more about Lot Types in our guide.
Lifestyle Benefits are rewards that players can earn for living in a tiny home. These benefits include reduced bills, faster skill-building, and more positive moodlets.
A variety of space-saving furniture items, such as a loveseat that can convert into a bed, a dining table that can be tucked away, and a Murphy bed that can be stored vertically against a wall.
The pack also comes with a variety of new build/buy items that are specifically designed for tiny homes. These include compact kitchen appliances, small-scale decor items, and other items that are perfect for creating cozy and functional living spaces.

Laundry Day Stuff Pack

The Laundry Day pack adds the ability for your sims to do laundry, including laundry machines and clotheslines. I’ve ranked this pack high on the list for the Build Mode items alone, if you’re a fan of building homes in the Sims 4 you will likely find every item useful for decor and clutter.

However, in my experience the dirty laundry gameplay became rather redundant and the dryer caught on fire more than one time. Thankfully you have the option to remove the laundry appliances or not place them at all if you’re not having fun with it.

With this pack your Sims will be able to wash, dry, and fold clothes adding a new layer of realism to the game and requires players to manage their sims’ laundry needs.
