Speed
Main-thread work: 6.6 s
A phone's processor spends 6.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.4 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
3,494 HTML elements
The page has 3,494 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Mobile performance score: 60
60/100Your mobile performance score is 60. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Shopify and omnisnippet1.com and others), adding 1.6 MB and 763 ms of main-thread time.
Render-blocking requests
750 ms6 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 750 ms.
Improve image delivery
100 ms · 562 KiB8 images could be 562 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 100 ms faster on a phone.
5 long tasks on the main thread
5 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 583 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused JavaScript
480 KiBAbout 480 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.
Google Tag Manager adds 369 ms
369 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 369 ms of main-thread work and 695 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.
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 120 KiBAbout 120 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.
Font display
350 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 350 ms).
Shopify adds 201 ms
201 msShopify costs a phone 201 ms of main-thread work and 579 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.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
169 KiB19 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (169 KiB).
Legacy JavaScript
29 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 29 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.

5.1 MBYour homepage downloads 5.1 MB in 385 requests on a phone: other files 1.7 MB (142), scripts 1.7 MB (180) and images 1.1 MB (21). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 1.4 g of CO₂ per visit
1.44 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.44 g of CO₂e: 173.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
