For a free app it works quite well and we have integrated it into our site without hassle. I only wish that it would allow for more than 100 collection filter variants as we offer an extensive size range. Additionally it would be amazing to customise different filters per collection page.

This could be so good however there is a ridiculous "maximum of 25 filters" limit in place making this utterly unusable for any medium or large sized stores or even small stores with ambitions to grow. If you offer a wide range of products don't even waste your time downloading this app. Really poor given that this is an app developed by Shopify.

5000 product cap is ridiculous as that is the whole reason we want to show our entire range of unique products and then be able to filter them down. Very disappointed as with most things with Shopify basic functionality that is usually missing

This pathetic 5,000 product limit is a total joke in late 2025, once your collection hits 5,001 items, EVERY filter vanishes completely. No price, no brand, no size, no fitment, no vehicle compatibility – nothing. Customers get dumped onto an endless, unsearchable wall of products and immediately abandon cart. I sell alloy wheels and vehicle parts: a single "All Wheels" collection blows past 10k–20k variants in days. Filters die instantly, forcing me to hack the site into hundreds of tiny, stupid sub-collections ("Wheels – Brand A 17-inch", "Wheels, Brand B Black", etc.). The navigation is now a confusing nightmare, looks like a cheap amateur site, SEO is destroyed, and customers rage-quit because they can't find anything. Conversions? Obliterated. Bounce rate? Through the roof. Support tickets? Exploded with "your site is broken" complaints. Shopify's official "fix" is to split everything, yeah, thanks for killing the customer experience on every automotive, electronics, or fashion store with actual inventory. This limit hasn't budged in years despite thousands begging for 50k+. Total garbage. Avoid this "free" app like the plague and pay for a real third-party solution that isn't stuck in 2015. Shopify, remove this insulting 5k cap NOW or admit you don't want serious merchants. One star is generous.
