Beautiful Furnishings for my simmies to enjoy
I am a sims aholic . I seen this coming out I had to have it. Glad I picked it up as I love building lots being one of my favorite things bout sims games. Creating lots beautiful houses. Having open for buisiness will be fun with this pack as well. Make my own Ikea store for my sims to shop in. I think the furnishings and decor that came in this pack are beautiful. I am glad I picked it up when I seen it. I am also looking quite foreward to that apartment life pack as well. They just keep makng beautiful things for our sims. I can't wait to see what they're going to do with the sims 3 it should be amazing. I have followed the Series since the sims 1 was out. The entire collection just bout of the sims and the sims 2. probably will 3 as well. Its just so much fun to build, play with our sims. See their reaction to the things we get for them. This here as with the real ikea stuff in real life adds beautiful touches to the homes I build makes them more visually appealing as well. Thats all I have to say bout this other then I am highly impressed with this pack.

Lacking in Stuff
Stuff packs are packs Maxis produces to add additional content to the Sims2 franchise. Some packs are better than others. This pack was rather mediocre. First, there really is nothing that is all that great. The furniture is cute, but... er... Rather plain, and the accessories would suit any modern home or college dorm room, but most sims will soon be pining for the more comfortable stuff that costs more simoleans.
In general, I might consider this good value if there was about twice as much content and some new stuff in the high comfort bracket. I'd pick this up in the bargain bin, but this is by far the worst 'stuff pack' around. Disappointing

Disappointed
I love the Sims and I love Ikea so I should have loved this. I was hoping for low cost stuff that was comfortable and improved the environment. Instead I got stuff that was mid price and not high on the comfort or environment scale...someone at Ikea should complain. There also didn't seem to be a lot of stuff in this pack. Since it doesn't offer wallpaper, paint or clothing...you would think it would have a lot of furniture....but it doesn't. Overall...I think it's the worst of the stuff packs.

My daughter loves this stuff pack!
I honestly have to say that the latest expansion pack The Sims 2: Ikea Home Stuff has been more than a great add on for my daughter's collection. She absolutely loves the cute and trendy items that come in this expansion pack & for 20.00 it wasn't that bad of a price. Your paying 20.00 for items that can be used all around your sim's home. You get new beds, dining tables, chairs, desks, bookshelves, rugs, accesories to complete your sims home to give it that modern edgy look we have today in the 21st century. The expansion pack also comes with 2 fully furnished houses so it's move in ready. I suggest to any sims lover you purchase this stuff pack. Every dollar was worth it!

Not bad!
Well, I just bought this stuff pack the other day, and frankly, I find that it's not half bad! I don't care for the new wallpapers much, but that's just me.
The person before me mentioned that they could not tell the old stuff from the new. Here's a way to make that easier. All you have to do is go into "Buy Mode" and below "Sort by Room" and "Sort by Function", you'll find an icon that looks like a folder. That is where your IKEA stuff collections (as well as other themed collections) will be stored so as to get to it more easily. Now, for those of you Sims 2 veterans out there, you already know this, but in writing a good review, I feel it's helpful to explain as much as one can.
I guess the only thing I was disappointed about was the fact that the IKEA stuff pack did not come with a pre-made IKEA store lot, the way H&M stuff came with an H&M store.
As far as the issue with SecuROM goes, I had no problems installing this game, OR playing it. That being said, the computer I play it on is NOT connected to the internet, and it is a fairly new computer (only a few yrs. old). I suppose it all depends on the individual's computer.
Anyway, I hope this review was helpful to you all. Have a great day, and Happy Simming!
