Buy Mode set is half-baked in general
Lets be honest, The Sims 4 has the best build mode but I see a huge weakness which is repeate with every pack and base game updates. I want to highlight some weaknesses and show some things which need...

I totally agree about the swatch issue I'm so tired of all these pieces of furniture that almost match but don't actually. It makes building and decorating such a challenge if I want everything to look cohesive. It's why I frequently stick to black/white/wood tones since they're the easiest to match and even THEN it's still hard to have matching wood tones ?
The window thing is also weird cuz like...it's literally the exact same window. The ones in Spa Day at least have a different tint to the glass but like....? I'm paying for this?
Out of both principle and spite I still refuse to buy MFPS haha. It's just so obvious from the furniture that it was supposed to come with Cats and Dogs and I just will not pay extra for something that was split up from another pack so blatantly.
I actually use the vintage stuff a lot in my builds... You can use table chairs as desk chairs so I never had a problem with that. I usually use that pack to build fancy bedrooms for my rich actor sims or just sims who have expensive tastes haha. I also love the globe bar it really comes in handy for a small space and I like the platter of drinks you can make. Also even though there are bugs with the butler I do like having one for my wealthy sims.
I do wish that Dine Out came with more kitchen things you're right it is pretty spare which is surprising for a dining pack... But I do use items from that pack a lot especially in my restaurants or just cluttering up my kitchens.
I still can't believe we didn't even get island counters in the set that came in a pack titled Island Living haha we got them later in an update. I like them a lot but yeah...more swatch problems...
AND YES about the size of windows and doors sometimes it just makes no sense to me. There are a few doors that are locked to the medium wall height but should still JUST fit on a small wall height and it's so frustrating. And then sometimes there's a set of windows/doors with different heights so you cant match them easily. I love TS4 build mode but things like this and the swatches really get on my nerves haha.
