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: 71
71/100Your mobile performance score is 71. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused JavaScript
300 ms · 576 KiBAbout 576 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.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Klaviyo, Clarity and Shopify and others), adding 1.2 MB and 597 ms of main-thread time.
Main-thread work: 3.4 s
A phone's processor spends 3.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
2,844 HTML elements
The page has 2,844 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
254 KiB21 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (254 KiB).
Klaviyo adds 139 ms
139 msKlaviyo costs a phone 139 ms of main-thread work and 313 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.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 69 KiBAbout 69 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.
Render-blocking requests
200 ms8 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 200 ms.
8 long tasks on the main thread
8 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 164 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Improve image delivery
88 KiB5 images could be 88 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Legacy JavaScript
49 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 49 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Duplicated JavaScript
11 KiB11 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.
Minify JavaScript
6 KiB6 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.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.2 MB in 265 requests
3.2 MBYour homepage downloads 3.2 MB in 265 requests on a phone: scripts 1.4 MB (101), other files 814 KiB (98) and images 638 KiB (31). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 0.9 g of CO₂ per visit
0.91 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.91 g of CO₂e: 109.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
44 buttons without a name
44 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
7 tap targets too small
7 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
ARIA commands must have an accessible name (1 element)
ARIA commands must have an accessible name: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
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.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (14 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 14 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
2 form fields without a label
2 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
2 links without text
2 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h5, h2 → h5 and h2 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 60 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
47 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 54 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 47 passed and 7 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
