Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Render-blocking requests
1.2 s24 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.2 s.
3,039 HTML elements
The page has 3,039 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Klaviyo, Google Tag Manager and Accessibe Accessibility Overlay and others), adding 13.1 MB and 630 ms of main-thread time.
Shopify adds 28 ms
28 msShopify costs a phone 28 ms of main-thread work and 11.7 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.
Mobile performance score: 81
81/100Your mobile performance score is 81. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused JavaScript
300 ms · 629 KiBAbout 629 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Main-thread work: 4.0 s
A phone's processor spends 4.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.6 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Klaviyo adds 140 ms
140 msKlaviyo costs a phone 140 ms of main-thread work and 311 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.
automizely.com adds 59 ms
59 msautomizely.com costs a phone 59 ms of main-thread work and 294 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.
9 long tasks on the main thread
9 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 131 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
102 KiB13 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (102 KiB).
Reduce unused CSS
49 KiBAbout 49 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Improve image delivery
43 KiB4 images could be 43 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Legacy JavaScript
27 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 27 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
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.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 15.1 MB in 312 requests
15.1 MBYour homepage downloads 15.1 MB in 312 requests on a phone: media 11.6 MB (2), scripts 1.6 MB (89) and other files 1,002 KiB (149). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
kame-specialty-sauce-mobile_375x.jpg 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).
About 4.3 g of CO₂ per visit
4.27 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 4.27 g of CO₂e: 512.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

All page content should be contained by landmarks (6 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 6 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
20 form fields without a label
20 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h3, h2 → h5 and h2 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.

Other pages
3 pages without a meta description
