I haven't had the "bad smell," but as soon as my Sim put the Cooker in her inventory she cleaned out "spoiled food" and the Cooker disappeared. Same thing with the tea pot. Then tea pot couldn't be removed from her inventory, so I ended up selling it rather than having it thrown out.

I am experiencing the same issue in any lot that contains the pressure cooker or tea kettle. I'm playing without mods.
My neat sim has a constant uncomfortable moodlet and complains of dirty surroundings when the pressure cooker and tea kettle are on the lot. My non-neat sims do NOT get the moodlet, but will still wave their hands in the air and get the stinky boot bubble in random parts of the living room. Removing these appliances solved the problem.
Please fix this as soon as possible! These appliances are the only reason I got the For Rent expansion pack and provide amazing gameplay.

My Sim is complaining about dirty surroundings but only in kitchens with the appliances mentioned on this thread. It happened after I accepted the Neat Trait for her when it popped up, she was fine before that. I've rebuilt her kitchen completely, replaced everything and she still had it. She visited her boyfriend and again in his kitchen she was miserable and complaining but his flat is brand new. It hadn't been used yet and it was spotless. He's not complaining it's dirty when I play his household. I also switched households to her sister and sent her over as she doesn't have the Neat Trait and she was fine while standing in the same space.
I've been going around in circles trying to figure out what was wrong. I chose Cleaning Frenzy, I vacuumed everywhere, bathed her dogs daily, nothing works. So after finding this thread I tested moving some appliances into the utility room and sure enough she's fine now...until she goes into the utility room.

I am having this problem too, first encountered at 11C Sungai Point. My Sim constantly has the negative moodlet because she is a neat Sim. It's very annoying, I'd like to be able to enjoy the new appliances without this problem

Oh my god, THANK YOU!!
This has been driving me up a wall all week. I never even considered it might have been one of the appliances, or anything related to the pack at all since I’ve played with it since release and not had the issue. I’ve never placed the pressure cooker before and my sim was constantly uncomfortable from dirty surroundings that weren’t actually dirty.

Seeing that NateTheL0ser already figured out what's wrong, this should be a quick fix, right? And all the other appliances with the same incorrect tuning will be fixed too, right?

Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Mostly the crockpot thing put it on the counter and leave it there for a little bit then your sim should be disgusted when they enter the room even though it's not dirty
What happens when the bug occurs? When I use the crockpot thing
What do you expect to see? I expect my sim not to get disgusted every time she walks in the kitchen with appliances in it
