Product Variants are best explained using the style / colour / size scenario. Imagine that product CV149 is a hi-vis safety vest. It's available in several different sizes and colours. CV149SMYY is size small, colour yellow. CV149MDYY is size medium, colour yellow. In fact, when you list all the possible colour and size combinations, you might have upwards of 20 SKUs just for this one product. But uploading and maintaining 20+ variations for dozens of products on your site isn't very efficient. The end result would probably overwhelm your customers, too. That's where Variants come in.
