One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Avoid multiple page redirects
7.1 sThe page goes through 2 redirects before it starts loading, costing about 7.1 s. Link and advertise the final URL directly.
Improve image delivery
5.3 s · 1,014 KiB23 images could be 1,014 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 5.3 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.2 s16 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.2 s.
Mobile performance score: 43
43/100Your mobile performance score is 43. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (fueltech.net, cloudfront.net and Shopify and others), adding 3.2 MB and 818 ms of main-thread time.
Reduce unused JavaScript
900 ms · 123 KiBAbout 123 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 900 ms faster on a phone.
fueltech.net adds 354 ms
354 msfueltech.net costs a phone 354 ms of main-thread work and 2.3 MB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 74 KiBAbout 74 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
cloudfront.net adds 287 ms
287 mscloudfront.net costs a phone 287 ms of main-thread work and 261 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
2,055 HTML elements
The page has 2,055 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
2 long tasks on the main thread
2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 165 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Document request latency
150 msThe HTML itself could arrive about 150 ms sooner: redirects, a slow server response or missing compression delay everything after it.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
30 KiB8 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (30 KiB).
Minify JavaScript
19 KiB19 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.
Chained critical requests
Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.
Minify CSS
5 KiB5 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 4.1 MB in 287 requests
4.1 MBYour homepage downloads 4.1 MB in 287 requests on a phone: images 1.3 MB (43), scripts 1.2 MB (106) and other files 1,014 KiB (104). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
CAMP_-_BN26_---Product-images_FT700_SAVE_1024x1024.png is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
3 images far larger than shown
43 KiB3 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example CAMP_-_BN26_---Product-images_FT700_SAVE_1024x1024.png at 1,024 px wide, shown at 298 px. Resized copies would save about 43 KiB.
About 1.2 g of CO₂ per visit
1.15 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.15 g of CO₂e: 138.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

18 form fields without a label

Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h3 → h6), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
