How we revamped our product filters

#Feature Friday: our filters have been revamped

Our product filters help you find the right products. We've now redesigned our filters to make it even easier for you to find what you're looking for.
Having received many requests and suggestions for our product filters, we took time to discuss how to implement these. What we realised rather quickly was that the column on the left doesn't offer enough space to create a user-friendly solution. Therefore, we gave our filters a complete overhaul and built a basis for further filter features.
All filters are now displayed above the product list on our desktop and mobile versions. This eliminates the need for scrolling – and it gives you an easy overview of the filters you’ve chosen.
..and this is what it looks like:
We've also reduced the annoying waiting times and added a search across all filter options. Our new «Select all» feature makes it easy to exclude specific options.
However, we're not stopping here: in a next step, we're going to introduce a range slider. This will make it easy to define a range instead of having to select dozens of options. Our Community members have often requested this feature.
What do you think about our new filters? We’re looking forward to reading your feedback in the comment section.
