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...
Great theme for our fashion store, does everything we need it to do, super stylish, with fast and helpful support. Would recommend.
