Customer Reviews

I still believe the stuff packs are overpriced for the amount of stuff they offer. $12-15 would probably be a fairer price. So if you happen to find a sale, definitely go for it.
Mansion ; Gardens Stuff is by far the best stuff pack EA has offered. The three decorating styles; Second Empire, Moroccan, ; Art Deco, are lovely. The flowers are shrubs are beautiful, a welcome addition to landscaping. I like how the windmill ; solar panels will lower the sim's bills. The ceiling fans are a decorative object, but they do actually move so it's a nice realistic touch. I haven't noticed that they affect the temperature of the sims so they are probably merely decorative.
I love the Mansard roof pieces. It makes it so much easier to have attic space that my sims can live in without being affected by the weather. I've had issues in the past of them freezing or getting heat stroke if I had bedrooms in the attic with certain types of roofs.
Knock on wood, I haven't noticed any major glitches with Mansions ; Gardens. What a relief. The grand staircases are very nice, but they sure do take up a lot of space. Your sims will autonomously slide down the banister. Usually we do not get any new interactions with stuff packs, so this was a nice surprise. Our sims can smell the flowers too.
The only thing I didn't care for is that some of the new siding is too dark and there's only a few selections. I'm not really fond of the screaming bright yellow. I wish they would have added some of the previous siding colors we've had with the new corner trim. EA could have made this a real expansion pack with more items and options and I would have been over the moon.
I'd consider this stuff pack a must for Sims 2 players.

I really like the items in this stuff pack but it is full of bugs. Sims freeze in place or they freeze in bed. The coffee bar (barrista?) no longer exists. There is a problem with placing certain stairs inside a house. Those who prefer to build instead of playing with Sims will likely love this stuff pack. For those who play with Sims it can be very frustrating.
