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
Reduce unused JavaScript
2.0 s · 1.3 MBAbout 1.3 MB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.0 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.4 s7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.4 s.
Google Tag Manager adds 1.0 s
1.0 sGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 1.0 s of main-thread work and 1.6 MB of downloads while your page loads. That alone is enough to make taps feel slow. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Mobile performance score: 40
40/100Your mobile performance score is 40. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 8.8 s
A phone's processor spends 8.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
8,295 HTML elements
The page has 8,295 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 (Google Tag Manager, Shopify and Trust Pilot and others), adding 2.6 MB and 1.7 s of main-thread time.
Reduce unused CSS
450 ms · 92 KiBAbout 92 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 530 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Shopify adds 414 ms
414 msShopify costs a phone 414 ms of main-thread work and 618 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
150 ms · 130 KiB25 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (130 KiB).
Improve image delivery
200 ms · 69 KiB2 images could be 69 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 200 ms faster on a phone.
Minify JavaScript
40 ms · 3 KiB3 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.

Total Blocking Time: 1.6 s
1.6 sScripts block taps and scrolling for 1.6 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 5.3 MB in 315 requests
5.3 MBYour homepage downloads 5.3 MB in 315 requests on a phone: scripts 2.5 MB (78), images 1.4 MB (91) and other files 978 KiB (127). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
17 images in older formats
17 images (2.2 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.
8 images below the first screen load straight away
8 images further down the page (1.1 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 1.5 g of CO₂ per visit
1.50 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.50 g of CO₂e: 179.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 56 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 52 passed and 4 failed. 5 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
