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
Mobile performance score: 56
56/100Your mobile performance score is 56. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Improve image delivery
750 ms · 124 KiB3 images could be 124 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
800 ms2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 800 ms.
Reduce unused JavaScript
540 ms · 107 KiBAbout 107 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 540 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 35 KiBAbout 35 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.
2,907 HTML elements
The page has 2,907 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Main-thread work: 2.1 s
A phone's processor spends 2.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 845 ms of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Shopify adds 51 ms
51 msShopify costs a phone 51 ms of main-thread work and 672 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.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Clarity, Shopify and Klaviyo and others), adding 823 KiB and 201 ms of main-thread time.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
150 ms · 26 KiB11 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (26 KiB).
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.
1 long task on the main thread
1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 75 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
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.
Minify JavaScript
3 KiB3 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Images and page weight
5 images far larger than shown
494 KiB5 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example [email protected] at 600 px wide, shown at 64 px. Resized copies would save about 494 KiB.
Page weight: 2.9 MB in 226 requests
2.9 MBYour homepage downloads 2.9 MB in 226 requests on a phone: images 1.4 MB (51), other files 831 KiB (114) and scripts 505 KiB (49). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
9 images in older formats
9 images (1.2 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.
About 0.8 g of CO₂ per visit
0.83 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.83 g of CO₂e: 99.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
