Paul, it is very important what you are saying; a user-friendly URL is fundamental element to position better in google search and attract thus organic traffic to the site.
URL has to be user-friendly, should contain key words (which not nesesarily is the product name), it should be aa far as possible to the left. Having the possibility to easily customiz/configure URL is important.
