13 More Custom Appliances I cannot live without is part 2 of my blog post, "10 Custom Appliances I cannot live without!" Now, I bring to you thirteen more awesome appliances that you and your Sims can enjoy.
Installing Custom Content and Mods
Step 1: Every mod/custom content should be placed in My Document>Electronic Arts>The Sims 4> Mods.
Step 2: If the cc/mod you download is in .package format, you can place it anywhere you want in the Mods folder. If it is a SCRIPT mod, you cannot put it inside a sub-sub folder. If it's a ZIP file, first unzip it and follow the instructions above.
Step 3. Enable cc in-game. If you're using script mods, also enable script mods in-game.
Installing Sims and lots
Step 1: Every mod/custom content should be placed in My Document>Electronic Arts>The Sims 4>Tray
Step 2: If it's a ZIP file, first unzip it and follow the instructions above.
Step 3. Enable cc in-game. If you're using script mods, also enable script mods in-game.
Step 4. Go to your Sims 4 Gallery in the game, and look for your Sims or the lots you had just installed. If you cannot find them, you might need to enable your custom content in the gallery.
NOTE: After each patch, the game will automatically disable custom contents; you have to enable it again in-game. Need more help? Please check my guide.

I am delighted with the way the pancakes look - and those custom plates!
11. Functional Grinder
Description
This mod gives you the option to make your sugar and flour at home. It also gives you (3) three styles: Modern Grinder, Medieval Grinder, and a Functional Grinder, a perfect addition to a Farm House. Of course, you will need to learn to grind - the book called "How to Grind" can help your Sim with this. Other than sugar and flour, you can also make green tea powder, Cocoa Powder, Coffee Powder, Sandalwood Powder, Potpourri, and more.

Thoughts
I'm a nut for cc and mods that add awesomeness to my gameplay, and this grinder is one item that lives up to that. Corn Flour, corn sugar, coconut flour, coconut sugar - I can use them as ingredients or sell them on plopsy if I prefer.
10. Functional Churn
Description
The churn is used to produce dairy products that can be used as ingredients or sold in plopsy. The best thing is that it is base game compatible.

I think this is a beautiful creation. I genuinely enjoy making the butter and cheese the most. I highly recommend this churn.
09. Functional Mill
Description
This mill comes in (2) two types: industrial and rustic. Different products like wheat flour, rice, sticky rice, sugar, cream cheese, and many more can be made from this mill. However, your Sim will need to learn to mill by having to read the Milling Manual. As your Sim's skill increases, more products can be made, and they can either be sold on plopsy or be used as ingredients in many recipes.

Thoughts
This is another helpful appliance for on-the-go Sims. One good thing about this fryer is that it is quick and easy to use. In addition to all its greatness, the dishes are fantastic.
07. Silk Processor and Silk Farm
Description
This appliance allows your Sim to farm silkworms which will create raw Silk for your Sim to collect. Once the Silk is collected, you can either sell it raw or process it using the Silk Processor (you can steam and dye the Silk to be ready for weaving, see functional loom for this.)

This is similar to the Donut Machine of Pied Piper because it makes it easy for your on-the-go Sims to quickly grab and go when they are both hungry and in a hurry. However, it is good to have both in my game because they both serve me in different ways, and each way adds a little something to my game.
03. Counter-Fit Washer & Dryer
Description
Functionally, the objects are identical to the originals. This gives you the ability to build a laundry room using counters etc. This does not override the sources, so you can still use those in other builds if you would like.

Counter-Fit Washer & Dryer (Website)
Thoughts
For some unknown reason, there are times when I forget to build an extra room or leave extra space for my Sims' laundry area. Having this washer and dryer under my counters and still having access to my counters is very practical. Most of all, it saves me space.
02. Toaster Oven
Description
The toaster is a Ts2 to Ts4 Conversion, part of the 8-3 Kitchen Accents set. It is functional, and it acts as a microwave instead of a toaster.

I found this green toaster in my game which was so retro-looking, and it was also so adorable. I genuinely adore this green toaster. Once, I deleted a custom content and failed to realize that this green toaster was a part of that file - when I realized it was missing from my game, I spent hours just trying to find it. Luckily, I did, but I had no clue where it came from and what its name was. I searched for it on the net every way I could and found it a month later. I am happy. Although I cannot find the link to the original creator, I was able to find recolors with the mesh included. I am not sure why I adore this green toaster, but I do. I hope that it could make others happy too.
