Sims 4 Eco Lifestyle Items Missing

I downloaded the  Sims 4 Eco Lifestyle pack on Origin when it came out (I have all the other expansion and stuff packs as well) and I don't seem to have all the items from the pack... I'm not sure why. I know a double bed is missing, it shows up in the game as I'm playing it but if I was to place it in the build myself, it's not there with the rest of the beds. That's the one thing I noticed missing. I downloaded a build from SimsPandy and she had it but I didn't. It showed up in my game, but if I was to "clone" it, there was an error message saying "there is nothing to clone/item cannot be cloned". That's just an eco lifestyle bed but I'm not actually sure what else is/could be missing. There could be more items missing from the pack that I just haven't noticed yet. What should I do?

  • @oleswoles  Thank you for the screen shot. With the Eco Living pack comes the feature of Fabricating, where the sims can create furniture etc with an object creator machine, bought from Build/Buy mode. The items created in that are not accessible through ordinary Build/Buy mode; but can be bought through the debug menu. 

    Here is the beds in ordinary build/buy mode, sorted on the pack:

    The bed in your picture I could access through debug menu, by opening the cheat console with Ctrl+Shift+C; then typing:

    testingcheats on (Enter)

    bb.showhiddenobjects (Enter)

    bb.showliveeditobjects (Enter)

    I never use testingcheats in my playsave; but build in dedicated folders. I always exit testingcheats when I'm done, by typing: testingcheats off (Enter)

    This is the Fabricator:

    Hi, thanks for your reply! This is the bed. (attached screenshot) I'm pretty sure it came with the little eco-lifestyle icon - I think I seen it in another video where they actually showed all the items as they were decorating the apartment and the icon was beside it. Yet I don't seem to have it. That's why I'm curious to see if I'm missing more than just this bed from my pack.
