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
Improve image delivery
1.6 s · 691 KiB9 images could be 691 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.6 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.6 s10 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.6 s.
Mobile performance score: 41
41/100Your mobile performance score is 41. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 5.5 s
A phone's processor spends 5.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.0 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Klaviyo, Reviews.io and rebuyengine.com and others), adding 2.3 MB and 1.0 s of main-thread time.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
650 ms · 484 KiB24 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (484 KiB).
Reduce unused JavaScript
300 ms · 716 KiBAbout 716 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.
Klaviyo adds 253 ms
253 msKlaviyo costs a phone 253 ms of main-thread work and 607 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.
rebuyengine.com adds 221 ms
221 msrebuyengine.com costs a phone 221 ms of main-thread work and 711 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.
Reviews.io adds 224 ms
224 msReviews.io costs a phone 224 ms of main-thread work and 329 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.
2,539 HTML elements
The page has 2,539 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Reduce unused CSS
270 ms · 83 KiBAbout 83 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 270 ms faster on a phone.
16 long tasks on the main thread
16 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 183 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
58 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 58 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Minify CSS
6 KiB6 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
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 JavaScript
2 KiB2 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Core Web Vitals
Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors
Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.
Time to Interactive: 26.9 s
26.9 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 26.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 9.2 s
9.2 sYour largest element takes 9.2 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Speed Index: 7.7 s
7.7 sVisually, the page fills in at 7.7 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Real-user LCP: 2.9 s
2.9 sReal visitors wait 2.9 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.
Real-user FCP: 1.8 s
1.8 sReal visitors see the first content after 1.8 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.233
0.233The layout shifts by 0.233 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.
First Contentful Paint: 2.7 s
2.7 sThe first text or image appears after 2.7 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Total Blocking Time: 433 ms
433 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 433 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
9 images without width and height
9 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors
+5%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 146 ms to 153 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors
-7%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.6 s to 2.4 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
Page weight: 32.4 MB in 281 requests
32.4 MBYour homepage downloads 32.4 MB in 281 requests on a phone: media 26.2 MB (4), images 3.3 MB (71) and scripts 1.9 MB (105). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image over 500 KB
MOB_Homepage_Banner_a6b733c1-e14c-4a1b-a9a6-7fc34b63b6b2.gif weighs 1.3 MB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
1 image far larger than shown
632 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example MOB_Homepage_Banner_a6b733c1-e14c-4a1b-a9a6-7fc34b63b6b2.gif at 1,600 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 632 KiB.
2 images in older formats
2 images (1.4 MB) are JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
MOB_Homepage_Banner_a6b733c1-e14c-4a1b-a9a6-7fc34b63b6b2.gif 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).
5 images below the first screen load straight away
5 images further down the page (232 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 9.2 g of CO₂ per visit
9.17 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 9.17 g of CO₂e: 1100.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
7 text elements with low contrast
7 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
4 tap targets too small
4 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
Scrollable region must have keyboard access (1 element)
Scrollable region must have keyboard access: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
6 images without alt text
6 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Zoom is disabled
The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.
1 link without text
1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h3, h3 → h5 and h2 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
50 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 58 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 50 passed and 8 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
2 H1 headlines
There are 2 <h1> headlines (“Koh” and “Reduce, reuse & refill”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
112 internal links, 12 external
The homepage links to 112 pages on koh.com and 12 external pages.
7 checks passed
Meta description: 153 characters

AI search readiness
4 checks passed
AI answer engines may read the site
Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.
Organization data: 4 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and description; sameAs (social profiles) and contact details would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,016 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://koh.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 8 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
2 pages without a meta description
https://koh.com/collections/best-sellers and https://koh.com/pages/help-centre have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
15 pages without an H1
https://koh.com/collections/all, https://koh.com/collections/starter-kits, https://koh.com/collections/refills, https://koh.com/collections/universal-cleaner, https://koh.com/collections/bathroom and https://koh.com/collections/laundry and 9 others have no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
15 pages with very little text
https://koh.com/collections/all, https://koh.com/collections/starter-kits, https://koh.com/collections/refills, https://koh.com/collections/universal-cleaner, https://koh.com/collections/bathroom and https://koh.com/collections/laundry and 9 others have under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.
