Smog Vacuum Question

I cheated to get the smog vacuum through bb.showhiddenobjects but the game won't let my sim put it in his inventory. Is this item not allowed to be used for cheats?
  • You need to make it smaller so that is fits on a sales table. Once it is on a sales table select clear table and the vacuum will go into your inventory.

    oh weird. Then my sim will be able to use it no problem?


    Yes. I did the same thing with my sim and worked just fine.

    It might not be a playable object. I noticed some of the objects that you "cheat" for are strictly for show when I thought I could use a fireplace, but discovered that it didn't have any interactions with it.
