## Review summary

Users praise Big Cartel for easy setup, beginner-friendliness, and affordable pricing, and note improvements over older versions. However, many report ongoing crashes and bugs, particularly on startup and during listing tasks, and frustration with recent UI updates that reduce usability. A frequent pain point is the lack of bulk editing tools (bulk activation, bulk price changes), and some essential features have gone missing or behave inconsistently (e.g., quantity display, shipped status management). Overall, reliability issues overshadow positives for many merchants.

### Pros

- Easy setup and user-friendly onboarding.
- Improvements over previous version with smoother workflow.
- Affordable pricing options including a free tier.
- Well-suited for beginners and helps you start selling quickly.

### Cons

- Frequent crashes and instability, including crashes on startup and when listing or uploading products.
- New UI/layout updates have made the app less intuitive and harder to use.
- Missing/broken bulk actions (no bulk option to activate/deactivate items or bulk edit prices).
- Missing or removed essential features (e.g., lack of quantity display on listings; inability to manage shipped status from the app).
