Lawn and Garden Equipment

This study examines the US residential market for power lawn and garden equipment. Excluded from the scope of this report is machinery used in commercial and agricultural applications. The residential market comprises equipment sales to homeowners and other individuals for private use (i.e., not for commercial purposes). Residential landscaping that is paid for by building owners or occupants and carried out by professionals is considered commercial.

Historical data for 2009, 2014, and 2019 and forecasts for 2024 and 2029 for demand are provided in current dollar terms (which are not adjusted for inflation).

Products include:

lawn mowers (e.g., riding, walk behind)
trimmers and edgers
garden tractors and rotary tillers
snow blowers (e.g., single-stage, multi-stage)
chainsaws
blowers, vacuums, and sweepers
other equipment and parts and attachments (e.g., hedge trimmers, pole saws, multi-tools, utility tractors

Excluded are push reel mowers and any other non-powered equipment.

Since the vast majority of engines for power lawn and garden equipment are used in OEM capacities, engines are excluded from the scope of this study, except insofar as they contribute to the value of the equipment that they power.
