Better Inventory System Needed
I know this has been mentioned before but .... Really we need this now. The current inventory system is a time waster and extremely frustrating to use My first two sims have long lives and drank much...

@dopaminedroid I never considered that chests might share a single inventory if you don't use mods for them. I've used coolspear's storage mods for so long, I may have forgotten what some of the 'features' it adds are.
I checked his mod description and it seems to imply that you are correct, default game behaviour shares storage across the chests. This is from the mod description; I bolded the part that seems to indicate you are correct regarding non-modded game behaviour:
The purpose of the Personal Storage mods here is to open up many objects in the game to have a new kind of storage facility that does not exist in the game.
Firstly to offer a unique storage hold for each object, so that it can hold absolutely anything inside which a sim can normally hold in their own personal inventory. No restrictions, If a sim can hold it, so can these objects. Secondly, to make each object its own private storage space, so that what you place inside one, will never be available when opening another. This is not Resident Evil, we don't want to find the same stuff in every storage box we open. And lastly, for this set in particular, to give each item the Live Drag function so you can drag the objects in and out of a sim's inventory, or command the sim to "put in inventory" or "place in world." So that our sims can carry them everywhere for quick storage use and access wherever they may travel.
That's unfortunate, as it certainly makes the storage chest much less useful for folks who are not willing to use mods.
Yes, that's the problem I've got - I try to avoid mods (just because I don't want to waste time updating them with every patch), and my storage chest is a mess. I've also wished we could store things separately in different bookcases and refrigerators - it would be nice to have a fridge for potions, spices and other things I rarely use, and one for leftovers and pomegranates. And a personal bookcase for each Sim, so that anything she's already read can be tossed into the family bookcase.
