You should maybe not use characteristics for all the attributes of your product. For example, if the "Panel colour" does not change the price of the product, you should use either an option or a custom item field: [ www.hikashop.com/en/support/documentatio...ct-form.html#options](http://www.hikashop.com/en/support/documentation/integrated-documentation/19-hikashop-product-form.html#options) [ www.hikashop.com/en/support/documentatio...p-field-listing.html](http://www.hikashop.com/en/support/documentation/41-hikashop-field-listing.html) They won't need any variant combination and thus reduce the amount of variants to manage whil still displaying roughly the same on the product page.
