What’s this? Here you’ll find 116 annotated “Spec Sheet” design examples from Baymard’s UX benchmark of 93 major e-commerce sites. (Note: this is less than 1% of the full research catalog.)
Our large-scale usability testing reveals that users rely on spec sheets to provide important product information. Unfortunately, nearly all e-commerce sites (92%) perform poorly or mediocrely when it comes to the product spec sheet UX performance, particularly with regards to scannability, consistency, and descriptiveness.
