What merchants say about Studio Shopify theme

Merchant sentiment summary

AI

17 of 39 reviews are positive, 4 neutral and 18 negative. Merchants most often praise the theme's visual design, customisation, and ease of use, and some say it is intuitive for non-technical users. The most common criticism is that updates break existing stores or lose saved edits, and that some features such as product filtering, blog tags and product reviews integrations are missing or do not work reliably.

Great theme and Shopify keeps it up to date - we use it for high-end multi-image single-item products and then products with many variants. Works with B2B as well with no issues.

Hi, in general I love it but for my business I am struggling to add the app: Judge.me Product Reviews App - the template does not seem to support it however I need it for product reviews. Please can this be enabled?

You get what you pay for. I have issues using the template pages for more that one page. If you use the 'Default' page for home, that template can't be used again for any other page. I have created 'new template' based on the page and it still gets over ridden by whichever page has occupied it first, but hey, it's free.

I still have font colors that I can't change in the default pages, and someone decided to change my font from yesterday to today, September 10, 2025. Please fix it. I pay a lot of money to Shopify to not look like an amateur.
