Works
I honestly doubt this has any impact on SEO, especially since it's only for category archive pages. The meat of SEO is on the content pages. But regardless, this plugin works just fine and does what it says without an issue. The SEO side affects are likely just a placebo however.

Perfect
No settings and just does what it should. Activated an voila: gone is the category base.
