Limitations and Alternatives

Despite our best efforts, there may be some accessibility limitations. Below are known issues and our ongoing efforts to address them:

  1. Low Contrast from Text and Images

    • Some images or text may lack sufficient contrast.
    • Images from third-party suppliers may not meet accessibility standards.
    • Solution: We are actively using the WAVE Chrome extension to identify and resolve contrast issues and have implemented the Accessibly plugin for enhanced user controls.

  2. Missing, Repetitive, or Odd Alt Text

    • Missing alt text often results from third-party image sourcing.
    • Repetitive alt text arises due to similar products.
    • Odd alt text may occur in third-party plugins, such as Google reviews.
    • Solution: We are manually adding alt text to missing images, diversifying repetitive descriptions, and ensuring key content is accessible through the main menu.

  3. Redundant Title Text

    • Products may have similar or identical titles due to their nature and manufacturer descriptions.
    • Solution: We are revising titles and descriptions for uniqueness wherever possible.

If you encounter additional issues, please let us know, and we will assist you promptly.
