I finally have some money to spend on the Sims 4, but I'm really struggling to pick which stuff pack to get. Please help me decide on which to get!1. Moschino (Yes, I know it's controversial at the moment, but I'm a YouTuber so this pack might be fun to review since it's brand new. I mostly don't care about the actual stuff, though)2. Kid's Room Stuff (I'm playing the 100 Baby challenge, and the build/buy seems really nice for that challenge (not to mention CAS))3. Toddler Stuff (It seems like less comes in this pack, but I'm playing the 100 baby challenge and this pack could add more clothes and activities for toddlers)4. Cool Kitchen Stuff (you can never go wrong with more counters (also has pretty nice CAS))5. Backyard stuff (this pack is just so cheery that I feel drawn to it. It seems like it would brighten up the game and help a lot with building yards)Thanks for your help :)

I'll say this: don't buy cool kitchen stuff because you want more counters. It will be disappointing.Honestly, none of these are my favorites so my feedback may not be super useful, but I'd probably go with toddler, kid's room or moschino (although I don't have the latter yet so I'm just going off a feeling here :))

@SimTrippy Good point! I wish there was just a bit more info on Moschino out there so I could be sure it would be worth getting.

Well, it depends on your own play style which SP is best for you. I would personally choose either Backyard or Toddler Stuff from your choices since I probably use them the most. Backyard Stuff has a lot of really lovely CAS and BB items and I almost always use the bird feeder, wind chimes and drink tray in my builds. It also works well with Seasons if you have it. I also really love Toddler Stuff since I play with toddlers a lot and it gives them some much needed CAS and BB items. I enjoy taking my toddlers out to toddler parks on play dates. Kids Room is just as good and a must have if you play a lot with child sims. I am also quite fond of Cool Kitchen and often use the CAS and BB items. The ice cream machine works well with Dine Out too. I can't really judge the Moschino SP yet, but from what I've seen it would probably be my last choice. I'm not a big fan of brands in my game and I can't see myself using the CAS much. The BB looks nice, but I don't often play modern style builds. The biggest draw for me is the photography update, particularly the poses and toddler/group photos, but I don't feel this is enough for me to get it straight away. Every player is different though so I recommend checking out the SimsVIP guides and other reviews if you haven't already to see which appeals to you the most. :)

My favourite out of those would be Kid's room stuff. I love the voidcritters and the CAS is good.

I vote either toddler or kids room stuff! I use both of those packs a ton in my family gameplay. I probably use the kids room stuff a little more just because the kids life stage is longer, but the toddler stuff clothes are super cute!

Which Stuff Pack Should I Buy Today?

Ikr I'm refreshing the forums trying to find out what people think but I can't really seem to find many opinions :sweat_smile:

I'm always so jealous of people who actually use the voidcritters actively. For some reason, I just can't watch my sim kids play that any longer than 3 seconds :( Always loved the idea of it but couldn't get to actually enjoy it in-game.

@annaliese39 agreed about the windchimes, I love those too!

Thanks, everyone, for your feedback so far! It seems like Kid's Room is the most popular so far, so I'm checking out a review on the pack. Although I'm sort of also talking myself into Moschino...
