Anyone else would like vacuum cleaners and lawn mowers ?

I would love to have a vacuum. Especially one that will add functionality.

I wonder how a lawnmower might function and where it would fit within the game? Maybe within a farming pack, where you have to upkeep a plot of land? I think that would be really interesting! I also think vacuum cleaners could be done in a straightforward way. Like distinguishing floor messes as spills (like water puddles) and dust/dry messes (toddlers pouring spices on the floor)? From an animation standpoint, the vacuum object might be fairly straight forward to swap out the mop for :)

For lawnmowers to be usable, they'd need to make the grass grow. They could add patches of grass that grow.

Grass is just terrain paint in the game, so really having a lawnmower is pointless without a massive overhaul to how the game treats the terrain textures. Vacuuming can work quite well if you ask me.

It could work similarly to laundry. Without placing these objects, nothing would change, but adding them would require sims to maintain a tidy house or lawn.

YES.
And a stroller for toddlers. Hope they will do Generations... Great objects for Generations EP.

Omg I would love strollers in game I get anxiety when toddlers just run outside especially taking them to the park.

I'm kind of torn on these two specific items, I can definitely see why people would want them, they're every day items, super realistic and work well for adding at home activities. On the other hand it's the two household tasks I absolutely loathe in real life, so personally, probably not. Though a decorative vacuum and mower would be great.

I'd actually like lawn mowers a lot. In TS2 Seasons, on Spring, weeds can grow in sim's lawns and bushes need to be trimmed down:

If your sims live in apartments landlords will do it for them, or they can hire gardeners if they don't want to do it.

I wish those features would come back with lawn mowers that make sims take out the weeds faster. Sims could use them as a resource to make compost in those wooden boxes, to later fertilize their gardens. This sort of detail is what should exist in a lifesim imo. Simple yet realistic.

would love vaccum cleaners and lawnmowers ingame
