HOME furniture disappearing from HOME apartments and clubs on PS3

The disappearance of HOME furniture has been reported by many users, with rumors a gang of thiefs are exploiting well furnished residencies throughout the HOME community.

I have two apartments, lovingly maintained and both have been burgled. On occasions it's just simple items like lights, but sometimes large plants are taken, further reinforcing that it's a well organized criminal network that is taking advantage of peoples' new dwellings.

But seriously.

It's unknown what's causing the issue, there have been reports that if you leave your lights off, your furniture doesn't disappear. This is an interesting theory, and although untested it's possibly true. I've installed many lights in both my apartments, so many I get a warning telling me so. This glitch is possibly a combination of too many objects / resources allocated to one person causing items to disappear.

Whatever is causing it, it's really frustrating. Just as you stand back admiring your perfectly positioned furnishings, you revisit at a later date and half of your items have disappeared.

I've now given up furnishing my apartments and won't purchase any new furniture until this glitch has been patched.
