Advantages of Cherry Picker (CP):
1. CP supports both: Product Types (VM1.1) and Custom Fields (VM2);
2. Optimized and polished search algorithms provide you best performance out there. You can search tens of thousands of products and still have low loads on your database!
3. CP comes with a variety of beautiful layouts:
• Simple List - regular list of filters;
• Checkbox List - you can select multiple filters with checkboxes and apply all with one click;
• Dropdown List - HTML-stylized list;
• Simple Dropdown List - provides an opportunity to search in Progressive Mode -- where you select filters one-by-one.
4. Color filters can be represented as actual color boxes;
5. Select ranges of filters (e.g. RAM from 4GB to 8GB): ——[]———[]—
6. CP has beautiful URLs (which Google will love). For example:
yoursite.com/shirts/?brand=Dolce&Gabbana
7. Update results with Ajax AND update Browser URL address, which means your visitors can bookmark results and return to the very same page;
8. Cherry Picker comes bundled with VM Breadz — a breadcrubms module that apart from categories also includes applied Filters, Manufacturers, Search keywords in its path!

9. And final but not least, if you want advanced experience, yo can use Fast Seller — a dedicated component with which you'll be able to manage filters super easily and super fast (which default VM interface cannot provide).

Great extension, great support. If you are running a VirtueMart site where you would like to add new cool features this is a 'must have' extension. It is very easy to install and configure. With Cherry Picker your VM-site become looks like a pro!
Many thanks for creating this excellent extension. Email support is also very quick and experienced.

I ran into some trouble with a site where i was importing lots of products. Support was quick, friendly, and my project turned out great. Even though there were pesky template and database issues due to my own customizations i repeatedly received prompt help. The staff is really knowledgeable and I for one am as pleased as I could be. Thank you.
There were some conflicts initially getting the checkboxes to work in one of the more popular mobilizer templates but the developer was very quick and helpful in working with us to get them to work and in the end it all is now flawless. We all recognize that frequently different extensions will conflict with others and it is support like this that make all the difference when developing custom-features in your site. HIGHLY RECOMMEND using this as your choice if looking for an Amazon-like filter functionality to virtuemart.
Hi,
I would just like to say that this module is the best. I did search filter with 60.000 rows for one category and it works great. I want to say that I did it with help of Galt team. They offered me a lot of help, and answered on all my questions. They helped me to modify module to work even faster. They are realy profesionalls and I recomend them and their module to everybody. It was very nice to work with them. Galt team, realy thank for everything, for your great module and for all help.

I'm very happy with the extension. The strongest points for me were:
* intuitive interface both for the customer and as well for the shop owner (using fast seller)
* filters can be translated and hence it works for any multilanguage shop
* helpful and quick support via galt

We purchased Fast Seller to use with VM 2.0.3. At first we couldn’t get the filters to work. Mask was a great support to us. We believed that it was Fast Seller problem, but after investigation we realized that it was our VM. Despite that Maks helped us to correct the problem and it works perfectly now. It took us literally minutes to set up the filters with Fast Seller (we have around 50 products). Great tool, excellent support! Thank you! Alexei
There can be no WebShop exist without good filters. Despite the large number of product and filter records, Cherry Picker is incredibly well and fast. Very easy to configure and style. After that the site visitor can use the most intuitive and intelligent filtering.
A very valuable VM 2.0 extension. Filter easily by using the default CF fields of VM.
Great support despite time zone difference.

I'm a web developer and one of my customer's wanted this and purchased it.
I spent hours trying to fuigure out WHY this didn't work.. and I send him an email. Turns out mu customer bought the wrong thing extension.. which needed more extensions at an addtional costs to work.
After having to spend HOURS to get this working I asked him to make this right. He didn't.
Sadly the software may be awesome.
I can certainly understand wanting to make a profit. But the customer support was HORRID. But well if there a problem with the people behind it. I cannot reccommend it.
I went ahead and went with another custom filter extension.

Owner's reply
Kind of funny situation here: the reviewer didn't think of time zones. And while there was a night time he considered the delay in reply as a "negative answer".
Let's keep that in mind.
I just can't think of a decent VM e-shop without filters. And for filters there's nothing like Cherry Picker. It is unbelievable how well (and fast!) it does its job without having to think of it all the time - you just set it once and forget about it. And still you have the most intelligent, intuitive and flexible filtering to offer to your customers.
First class support by Maks. Many thanks, this is one of the greatest extensions I've ever used.

Hands Down! The best, most useful extension I've ever used. Cherry Picker let me set up my Virteumart site with a search like Amazon.com or New Egg. The author delivers on his promises.
The extension, when used with FastSeller component is even more impressive. I set up a 3,000 item store in a fraction of the time I would have if I hadn't had these components.
Tech support is fast and free.
Don't tell the guys , but I would have paid twice as much for these components!

If you want a professional shop, without the Cherry Picker you would not have. Excellent service from Maks.
