User Rating
15/15

A perfect 100 score from 13 ratings is impressive, though the small sample size means the rating carries limited statistical weight.

Support Health
8/15

There are zero support threads on record, so we cannot confirm how responsive the author is when users run into problems, which caps support health at a neutral score.

WP Compatibility
15/15

Full marks here because the plugin requires PHP 7.4 and WordPress 6.4 or higher, aligning with current WordPress environment standards.

What It Does

Cart Weight for WooCommerce adds a line showing the total weight of all items in the cart and at the WooCommerce checkout page. No settings or configuration are required, so the weight total appears as soon as the plugin is activated, provided products already have weight values defined in WooCommerce.

Who It's For

This plugin suits small to mid-size WooCommerce stores selling heavy or bulky goods such as furniture, groceries, building materials, or wholesale products, where shoppers need a clear weight estimate to gauge shipping costs before reaching a carrier-specific rate quote.

Who Should Skip It

If you already rely on a shipping plugin that displays cart weight as part of its rate calculations, or if none of your products have weights configured in WooCommerce, this plugin will add no value to your store.

The Bottom Line

Cart Weight for WooCommerce does one thing and does it with zero configuration, earning a respectable 75.93/100 overall quality score. It is a solid pick for stores that just want a quick cart weight readout, but stores needing weight-based shipping rules or carrier integrations should look at the alternatives.
