Best WooCommerce Themes for WordPress: 20 Options Compared

Laura Ž.

WooCommerce remains one of the most preferred tools to build online stores. And to create a seamless shopping experience, WooCommerce powered sites need to use a good WordPress theme.

In this article, I will take you on a tour of the 20 best WooCommerce themes available on the market. Further down, I will also give some insights on how to look for a suitable theme for your WooCommerce store.

Your WooCommerce Theme Is As Important As Your Store

Appearance is one of the top things that people notice when they visit your site. A study on website first impression reveals that 94% of participants left design-related comments, while the remaining 6% were about the actual content.

Another report shows that if a site’s overall look doesn’t appeal to visitors, there is a 38% chance they will leave.

That being said, appearance is not the only reason why you need to use a good theme for your WooCommerce store.

Your theme should also be responsive, meaning that it is designed for any screen size. As proof, 62% of companies have seen an increase in their sales after making their sites mobile-friendly.

Another thing to watch is your site speed. As a rule of thumb, your site should load in three seconds.

Zitmaxx Wonen, a Dutch furniture retailer, saw a positive outcome after making its site faster. Its mobile conversion and revenue increased by 50.2% and 98.7%, respectively.

Last but not least, a good WooCommerce theme has to include various online store features, such as product listing pages, checkout forms, image galleries, and many more.

20 Best WooCommerce Themes

Here are the best 20 WordPress WooCommerce themes chosen based on their features and price.

On top of that, ShopIsle PRO supports famous WordPress page builders like Elementor and Beaver Builder. These tools allow users to edit more elements of their websites.

To make your site more unique, the built-in parallax scrolling feature makes it possible for you to use videos or slideshows as the site’s background.

Divi’s features do not stop there. With the find and replace function, you can change any design element on your page with a single click.

For starters, the WooCommerce theme has three demos that can be easily modified with WoonderShop’s drag-and-drop page builder. Should you need more editing freedom, the theme is compatible with Visual Composer.

Some of the functions that make WoonderShop worth using are the mini cart in the header, distraction-free checkout page, and fast product filters.

But the most impressive feature of this theme is the ability to make appointments directly from your website. Usually, you need to use an additional plugin to get this feature.

You can play around with WoonderShop with its seven-day trial. After that, you can buy it for $79.

11. The Gem

The gem bannerThe Gem is another multipurpose WordPress theme that you can use for ecommerce sites. With 70 demos and 60 section templates, setting up an online store has never been easier.

Editing your website’s appearance with The Gem is also easy since it comes with the Visual Composer page builder. Thanks to the plugin’s drag-and-drop function, you can customize various parts of your site without any technical knowledge.

However, customization is not the only thing that makes this theme worth using. The Gem can also boost your site’s ranking with its on-page optimization. The higher you rank, the more traffic and customers you’ll receive.

Basel best woocommerce themeAnyone who wants to have an affordable theme with an irresistible plugin bundle will love Basel.

The price and the support renewal fee for this theme are the same as the previous one ($59 and $17.63, respectively). But along with free updates and six months of support, you also get WooCommerce, WPBakery page builder, Slider Revolution, and WPML translation plugin.

Aside from those bonuses, there are several features that you won’t find in other themes on this list. For instance, there’s a 360-degree view function that allows customers to examine your product from every side.

Furthermore, you’ll find a little surprise when you hover over a product thumbnail. A box will pop up and display the products’ price, color options, sizes, and many more.

13. Neto

Neto best woocommerce themeNeto is a lightweight theme with more than 70 templates. What is more, each template has multiple layout options for the homepage, product list, and product description.

Even though Neto’s templates are ready for use, you can customize many of their aspects through the theme settings. The options include, but not limited to, typography, header and footer, and custom widgets.

Plus, you can insert videos into the product description fields.

Neto is currently priced at $34.30. The theme can be used on unlimited sites, and you’ll get one year of support and updates.

14. Nitro

Nitro bannerNitro is another theme apart from Divi that offers many out-of-the-box features.

It enables store owners to create multiple popup messages that will enrich customers’ experience. For example, you can show a popup about ongoing promos once customers land on the homepage.

Then, if they see an out-of-stock product, visitors will receive a popup message encouraging them to opt for notification emails. They will be notified once the product is in stock again.

Nitro will save a lot of your money because it comes with many third-party plugins. This includes Revolution Slider, Visual Composer, Contact Form 7, and a few other useful plugins that are worth around $130.

This theme only costs $59 on Theme Forest. Therefore, I strongly recommend it for those who want to cut down on expenses.

15. EightStore Pro

Eigstore pro bannerEightStore Pro’s homepage already provides you with the essential elements of an online store — featured products, subscription boxes, and deals of the day. These elements can be enabled or disabled according to your preferences.

Like Basel, EightStore Pro allows you to display an add-to-wishlist button when someone hovers over product thumbnails. There’s also a quick-view option where visitors can zoom in on the products’ images and then add them to their carts.

But the most useful feature of this theme is the banner editor. With this function, users without photo editing skills can easily create attractive call-to-action banners.

Furthermore, users can add promo tickets on the website header — which can help to boost the sales of discounted products.

For only $55, you’ll get access to the forum, email, and chat support.

16. Shopkeeper

Shopkeeper bannerShopkeeper is one of the best WooCommerce themes for those who like a minimalist design. The theme takes away distractive page elements to give customers the best shopping experience.

Creating your website with Shopkeeper is easy because it provides multiple layout styles for important pages. There are also some portfolio layouts if you are going to sell your services.

For the product list page, you can decide the number of items per row and assign different headers for each category. The sidebar with product filters can be hidden so customers will get a full-screen display of your products.

To make further modifications, you don’t have to install any additional page builder because Shopkeeper already has a built-in WPBakery.

All in all, it doesn’t take too long to launch an online store because the theme’s customization settings are simple and easy to use.

Shopkeeper and its six months of support are available for $69. To extend the support for another half of the year, you need to spend $21.38.

This theme does not have built-in advanced customization settings. But fortunately, it supports WPBakery Page Builder that will help you to create the site of your dreams.

Besides, it is also possible to create a parallax header with an animation overlay on top of it. This option will make your website looks more unique.

To get Atelier, you only need to pay $53. Though, like other Theme Forest products, it only has six months of support. You can extend it for $15.38.

18. XStore

XStore best woocommerce themeXStore is the only theme on this list that lets users launch an ecommerce site for multiple vendors. To do so, you only need to use either one of these plugins: Woozone, Dokan, WC Marketplace, or WooCommerce Product Vendors.

To help customers find products from certain vendors, XStore adds a feature that filters the listings based on brand names.

XStore’s admin panel offers advanced settings for customizing your site. If that’s not enough, you can use the WPBakery Page Builder plugin.

There are other plugins that come along with this theme as well, including Slider Revolution and GMAPS for WPBakery. In total, all of them worth $250.

Considering that the theme only costs $59, it is an excellent deal for those who are on a budget.

The theme also has three pagination options to create different site looks: infinite scrolling, pagination, and load more button.

For only $59, you’ll get some premium plugins such as Revolution Slider, WPBakery, and WooCommerce PDF Invoice.

Things to Look Out for from WooCommerce Themes

There are several essential aspects to remember when looking for a WooCommerce theme:

  • Ease of use. Choose a theme with advanced customization options and page builders that won’t require you to have any technical knowledge.
  • Compatibility. Check the theme’s compatibility because not all themes work well with certain WordPress versions and plugins.
  • Support. An ecommerce site has various functions that can be quite hard to configure. Thus, finding a theme with reliable technical support should be on your list.
  • Updates. You will not want to buy a theme that does not receive constant updates. Outdated themes can expose your site to security issues and other bugs.

Final Check: Testing Them Out!

When it comes to running an online store, loading speed and website responsiveness are very crucial. To know how your site performs in these criteria, I recommend using Pingdom Speed Test Tool and Google Mobile-Friendly Test.

Pingdom Speed Test Tool

Pingdom test tool homepagePingdom has a couple of website performance monitoring services, but it is most known for its site speed test.

Upon entering its homepage, simply enter the URL of your theme’s demo, choose the location, and press enter.

Pingdom then reveals the performance grade, page size, load time, and the number of requests the page takes.

If you scroll down, the tool also shows what can be improved to increase the site speed and the break-down of page element sizes.

Google Mobile-Friendly Test

To use it, simply paste the URL of your theme’s demo to the given field. Then, the tool will assess the page using Googlebot.

the result of google mobile friendly testIn the results page, you will see the overall state of your website’s responsiveness and how it looks like when viewed from mobile devices.

Other than that, do not forget to check the issues your site might have. For example, the result below says that the demo site I use has some page loading issues.

If you click on one of the issues, you’ll get a brief explanation about the problem and a link to an article that further describes how to solve it.
