US demand for outdoor living products was $43 billion in 2022. While revenue will dip overall in 2023, that is due to the very high elevated base in 2020. Still, 2023 sales levels will be above 2019 pre-pandemic levels, reflecting the expansion of the customer base and their continued engagement in outdoor living and investments in their outdoor spaces at home. However, the industry is challenged by a number of factors, including rising inflation, the return to pre-pandemic habits, and a shortage of professional landscape workers.

This study analyzes the US market for consumer-grade outdoor living products for residential do-it-yourself (DIY) applications, and excludes products intended for professional or commercial use.

The study also identifies the most popular consumer trends and analyzes data-driven insights into consumer behavior, from psychographics to habits. This information comes from two sources: The Freedonia Group National Online Consumer Survey (a proprietary national survey conducted quarterly) and syndicated consumer research data. The data is then cross-tabulated by key demographic segments, including gender, age group, urban vs. rural setting, region, type of housing, and the presence of children under 18 at home.

Outdoor living products are segmented by the following applications:

  • Lawn & Yard Maintenance
  • Outdoor Cooking, Entertaining, & Recreation
  • Gardening
  • Outdoor Design & Landscape Materials

Lawn & Yard Maintenance products include:

  • Power lawn and yard equipment
  • Lawn care consumables (both organic and non-organic formulations)
  • Lawn watering products
