Excellent support! Also, excellent theme but always it can takes better and better! A very useful idea for next theme update is; add a "note" feature in the product page where the customer can write something special/personalized for each product. Very helpful for us in the fulfilment. Thanks!

A clean, easy to use theme with fast load times. As we’ve grown, Impulse has become limiting as it's quite locked down in terms of styling options. We’re now using a lot of custom CSS to make the store look unique - without custom CSS it looks very generic. So, a lot of our store's look has very little to do with the theme itself. $350 might be a bit on the steep side, with this considered.

Great support when there was a minor request from them! Good looking theme overall with nice features.

Came back to the new update and very disappointed that adding a focal point to an image is not supported anymore. Update: It says theme does not support image focal point but for some reason they gave me an option through editing the photo and now I have a working focal point...
