The XootiX WooCommerce sidecart plugin is excellent and the FREE version has all
the options that most users who want a great side cart, need. It's a very stable
Plugin and I used support to enquire about one option and the response was rapid,
clear and fully answered my query. Very good plugin provider who I would certainly
recommend.

I really like this WooCommerce sidecart plugin which works far better and more reliably
than others I tried. But best of all is the support from the developer which is 
superfast, friendly and informed — among the best I've experienced as an amateur
WP developer. Highly recommended
