Add Pillow Insert to Pillow Cover with Color/Size variants?

Hi all,

If been going through all the bundling apps - and am still struggling to figure out how to add on a Pillow Insert to a product (pillow cover) with size and color variants. Basically want to accomplish what they are doing on Pottery Barn below.

Thank you!

Hi, @corrie .

Great question. You would be looking for a product options app in this case. Product options allow you to add multiple options to the variant and allow you to adjust the price. I’ve linked 2 below, as well as a link to more apps.

Variant Option Product Options

Hulk Product Options

Other Shopify Product Option apps

Try using one of the free apps and follow their setup guide to enable this type of option selection on your shop!

Hi

You can achieve this without any apps as its the native variant options that Shopify has. If you need more than 3 options then would need to look into options apps.

You would only need to consider using a bundle app if you want to track inventory of the pillow inserts that are selected as part of the product. Without an app you would see the orderline with whatever the buyer purchased but inventory would not adjust as that order line would contain 2 separate products (if pillow insert selected).

There are 2 parts to managing inventory of bundles. The stock available of the bundles based on components and updating stock levels after a bundle sells. Our bundle app has 2 main features that solves these issues.

1. Bundle Inventory

It lets you connect up your bundled product to components and it then updates the inventory based on the component stock level. So when a component product stock level gets updated the bundle also updates based on what can be made up along with any other bundles that also use the same component SKU.

2. Order Fulfilment

When you sell one of the bundles the stock level won’t reduce automatically. What Bundleup does is update the order post purchase by replacing the order line with the component SKUs as order lines which then reduces stock of the components and that feeds into point 1 above.

I totally get your struggle with bundling apps. It can be overwhelming to figure out how to add different options to a product, especially when it comes to size and color variants. I haven’t tried Pottery Barn’s bundling system, but it sounds like they have a pretty slick setup! Speaking of products that make our lives better, I recently got a mattress cooling system that has been a game-changer for me. It’s amazing how something as simple as regulating your body temperature can make all the difference in getting a good night’s sleep.

Hi @corrie ,

Achieving the setup you desire is a breeze with the Easify Product Options app (Free plan available). This app empowers you to create a “Pillow Insert” as a custom option for your main Pillow product, all within the app itself. The best part is, this won’t impact your Size, Color options, or the overall quantity of your Pillow product :blush: .

Let me guide you through the process:

  • Start by creating your Pillow product with Size and Color options only.

  • Next, install the Easify Product Options app and set up a new option set:

  • Add an option for selecting “Pillow Insert,” and you can choose from a variety of option types, including Buttons (or any of the other 25 option types available in the app).

If you wish to apply an extra fee for each type of Pillow Insert, this can be easily accomplished as well. Furthermore, if you have a need to track the inventory of Pillow Inserts, you have the option to create them as distinct products and then assign them to each option value within the app’s settings.

  • Now, assign the “Pillow Insert” option to the relevant Pillow products, and you’re all set!

As you can see, managing your requirements with this app is a straightforward process. I highly recommend giving it a try :raising_hands: .

Corrie, did you ever find a solution to this? I was able to find a way to add the option of adding a insert for an additional charge, but I can’t find a way to link it to inventory.

I’m currently working with the Globo app.

Thanks are you happy with it?
