According to recent findings from Parks Associates, the trend of smart appliance adoption is witnessing remarkable growth, with 23% of U.S. internet households currently owning at least one smart appliance.
Parks Associates emphasizes that although the smart appliance market is growing, various challenges persist. The demand for smart home connectivity is on the rise, but market players must navigate high costs and consumer hesitance before more widespread adoption occurs. In addition, many consumers are often unaware of the benefits that smart devices provide, such as remote diagnostics and enhanced maintenance capabilities.
As expressed by Jennifer Kent, VP of Research at Parks Associates, the smart appliance sector is building a robust foundation for new services. The connectivity offered by smart devices not only provides users with essential maintenance features but also paves the way for emerging revenue streams through service-based models.
As the smart appliance market evolves, Parks Associates will continue to shed light on emerging trends, innovations, and what they mean for consumers and businesses alike.
