Render-blocking requests
1.1 s4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.1 s.
Mobile performance score: 67
67/100Your mobile performance score is 67. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
300 ms · 664 KiB13 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (664 KiB).
Reduce unused JavaScript
150 ms · 298 KiBAbout 298 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Main-thread work: 2.7 s
A phone's processor spends 2.7 s on main-thread work while loading, 878 ms of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
1,954 HTML elements
The page has 1,954 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Shopify adds 21 ms
21 msShopify costs a phone 21 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.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (pop-convert.com, Cookiebot and Klaviyo and others), adding 793 KiB and 253 ms of main-thread time.
4 long tasks on the main thread
4 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 198 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 32 KiBAbout 32 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
72 KiB4 images could be 72 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Legacy JavaScript
19 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 19 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.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.3 MB in 212 requests
3.3 MBYour homepage downloads 3.3 MB in 212 requests on a phone: scripts 1.1 MB (56), images 963 KiB (28) and other files 952 KiB (109). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
Luna_Lounge_Chair_at_Sunrise_header_image_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).
2 images far larger than shown
36 KiB2 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example Designer_-_Nanna_Jorgen_Ditzel.jpg at 600 px wide, shown at 165 px. Resized copies would save about 36 KiB.
3 images in older formats
3 images (152 KiB) 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 0.9 g of CO₂ per visit
0.92 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.92 g of CO₂e: 110.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
15 text elements with low contrast
15 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
2 tap targets too small
2 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
1 image without alt text
1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
24 links without text
24 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (1 element)
Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h3), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
46 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 50 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 46 passed and 4 failed. 1 more 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 (“Sika-Design.com” and “Passion for Rattan”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
1 link with vague text
1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.
