Good extension but needs some CSS coding to implement properly
Review by Essam | May 18, 2012

This extension works exactly as promised. To implement in a nice way you need a lot of CSS coding though. Would be nice if there were options to turn of the title (since most category pages have titles already) and to have better control over which sub-categories are shown in the list.
Overall, I am still very happy with this Aheadworks solution! -
Great!

Nice and simple extension. Easy installation, requires some styling afterwards.
If I can give you guys a good tip: you should incorporate the possibility to have FEATURED categories by adding an attribute "Show in easy categories" to the category and a sort order attribute. This would give everyone the possibility to sort the categories inside easy categories hence having featured categories.
Keep up the good work! -
Simple and Quick Solution to Sub-Categories
Review by Office Slide | May 26, 2011

We needed to list over 300 sub-categories complete with thumbnails and this extension did it for us perfectly!
The extension is easy to use, worked perfect for Magento 1.4.2.0.
The thumbnail capability was a must have for us and it works great.
