Great plugin!
What an awesome little plugin. After tinkering with default woocommerce shortcodes, css hacks and a lot of wasted time, this plugin did EXACTLY what I wanted, and then some. I absolutely LOVE the category slider on the left. One small issue which has been addressed in the support forum. When you copy the shortcode from the sidebar and paste it into the classic editor, it will insert it as "Preformatted". This will cause the static category pictures to display under the category slider. To fix this, in the dropdown under the "Add Media" button, switch it from "preformatted" to "paragraph", and it will display correctly.

Great!
Just added today and it really made a huge different on my shop site. I had many questions and trouble with my theme affecting the plugin, but the online support chat was really helpful with everything. They were really fast too I was surprised, but great plugin and great customer service.

I had trouble with the Additional Categories images not showing and these guys came to the rescue and in no time at all found the conflict with my WordPress template and supplied a fix. Worked perfectly, well done guys.
