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
2.1 s · 368 KiBAbout 368 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.1 s faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
600 ms · 689 KiB20 images could be 689 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 600 ms faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
850 ms · 171 KiB16 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (171 KiB).
Mobile performance score: 54
54/100Your mobile performance score is 54. 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 (Hotjar, Google Tag Manager and Klaviyo and others), adding 1.2 MB and 769 ms of main-thread time.
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 53 KiBAbout 53 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.
Render-blocking requests
350 ms3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 350 ms.
Main-thread work: 3.2 s
A phone's processor spends 3.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.6 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Google Tag Manager adds 172 ms
172 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 172 ms of main-thread work and 312 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.
Klaviyo adds 131 ms
131 msKlaviyo costs a phone 131 ms of main-thread work and 345 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.
1,596 HTML elements
The page has 1,596 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 19 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Minify CSS
150 ms · 2 KiB2 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
8 long tasks on the main thread
8 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 137 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
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: 4.3 MB in 288 requests
4.3 MBYour homepage downloads 4.3 MB in 288 requests on a phone: scripts 1.6 MB (80), images 1.5 MB (28) and other files 889 KiB (156). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
pj_slider_chimi_bogo_0926_mobile.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 1.2 g of CO₂ per visit
1.21 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.21 g of CO₂e: 144.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

SEO
