Item limit
How are we supposed to improve our lifestyle with such a small in house item limit? Its not possible to collect all hobby and work rewards and still have a functioning house. I just paid for the chris...
Forum Discussion
Possibility to remove the maximum number of items in the house limit, also we should get the ability to expand houses further into the empty space that is occupied by grass (it seems that there is currently no way of removing this grass and so it gets in the way of being able to make additional rooms).

EA StaffHi @yasfinite,
Thanks for your feedback on the object limit. Would it be possible to get your player ID so I can share it with the team?
Regarding grass - you should be able to remove grass when you get to certain lifestyle point level, a bit at a time. Could you try that?
Thanks again!

Note: I've inserted two screenshots to portray this issue.
Limitations:
There are some limitations in house designing that need to be reviewed and changed.
1) After purchasing all the new plants in surplus, I've added a front yard to my house, and designed a garden. Now, I am unable to refurbish the interior of my house with any items. I did not purchase all of these plants for a garden to only be unable in placing interior items.
Plant layout:
Item limitation:
Suggestions:
1) Not to overstep my boundaries, but I've been a supporter of this game, and like everyone else, we would love to see a change in increase in the house item limit.
2) Another suggestion: Sell useless items; Throw away useless items; Implement categorization
If it is not in near future development or is being planned for players to be able to sell house items we no longer favor, then can you give us the option to throw away these items? In case neither of these options are plausible, then may I suggest implementing categorization for housing items? Similar to the Store, developers can implement categories with titles that can be used to associate several distinct items. It is often frustrating for players to hassle through items which we are not looking for.
Thank you.
I hope everyone takes a look at everything above, and I look forward to seeing other players' opinions.
(Edit: changed title, took out IMPORTANT, as it might create confusion.)
- Couldn't agree more with your suggestions! Hopefully they see all these post and really start doing something about it all. Would make playing The Sims Mobile so much better !!
- I hope so as well!
- thank you for the information. I never know that there is limit to put items in the house. but perhaps if we increase the lifestyle so the total number that we can put also increase?
Yeah, I was unaware of the item limitation as well. It's frustrating how they don't provide a distinct number and how unidentifiable it is.
Reasons why Lifestyle level is not involved:
1) Given my Lifestyle level, it is not possible to be limited to a few items
2) Amount of plants I have with imposed limitation contradicts the amount of the house items I've placed previously.
To elaborate on these two reasons:
1) Lifestyle does not affect your item limitation. My lifestyle level is "Uniquely Chic," and this level is towards the end of the 4th division from the last obtainable one.
2) The amounts of plants I have outside sums up to 32. Collectively with the other 3 items I habe inside, the total is 35 items. Now, given my level and my purchases of almost all of the House Item packages, I've had my house decorated with much more items than 35. (I was going to refurbish my house after purchasing the plants).
Thank you for you suggested resolution, but that just isn't the case.
Could not agree more!!!
1) I purchased 4 new plants and built a front yard as well! I currently placed only about 90+ furniture (including windows and doors), and 4 new plants. I have friends who have the exact same level and lifestyle with me but placed more than 100 furniture. BUT!!! They do not have any new plants! So new plants might be the reason!
Also, you are absolutely right! Lifestyle does not involve in the item limit. I leveled up in lifestyle this morning to "Best Nester." It is a level of a new room. But the item limit did not change.
I guess the developers are either designed the item limit logic in a bad way (e.g. each item should be counted as 1, but new plants are designed to be count as 5) or there are bugs in their code for those new plants! The developers definitely should increase the limit or decrease the weight of new plants (or fix the bugs)!
2) If selling the useless item won't happen, having a more organized storage would help a lot.
Thank you for taking a look at my post, Irisx0411!
The observations you made about the differences in plants use and home decor use, your affirmation in regards to Lifestyle not being involved with the item limits, your suggestions of the developers' activity, and your analysis about the plants were much needed.
I concur with your suggestions at the end of your response. These plants could very well be valued higher than items at the house. If so, then I question the developers: why beds, refrigerators, TVs, etc. are valued far less than plants?
Thank you for your insight, Irisx0411!
- I'm getting an item limit notification. I can't put decorations up for my party. Is there anyway to increase your item limit?
No there is not, try taking out some and adding the decorations.
- I'm having too many item limit as if I shouldn't have bought the items in the first place. Why limit me to what I can have in my home...I had a plan to expand and have multiple rooms if you give me 4 sims and only two rooms??? My id is iambuddybih... I think as you go up levels the limit should too....why have a storage with nice items you can't use... I spent good money with this app because I wanted to expand and decorate please help.
@buddybee32 I noticed with this update, I'm getting "Item Limits" again when I'm just trying to change the color of something. This time I don't have any heirlooms to put away either. I've already put a tree and a chair back into storage. So EA can keep the new items they want us to buy. I'm not putting anything else away! Raise the item limit EA or no more real $ !! 😬
- I totally agree.... I don't understand the item limit... We have a storage full of items we can't use heirlooms we can't even display???? This has to change...
