Providing the most comprehensive and up-to-date information and analysis of the UK Small Domestic Appliances market including the behaviours, preferences and habits of the consumer.
COVID-19 disruption since March 2020 has seen the online channel gain in importance, as just 39% of consumers purchased in-store in 2020, down sharply from 49% in the previous year. As a result, online-only retailers have strengthened their hold on the market, with 46% of consumers purchasing from them in the past year. This was driven by Amazon (40%) – a standout winner from the COVID-19 disruption as it extended its lead in the market.
The market remained resilient, although growth slowed to 2.1% in 2020. However, alongside the fundamental shift in how consumers purchase appliances, this disruption has had a significant impact on the market. The announcement on 4 January 2021 of a national lockdown, is likely to see the continuation of the trends of the past year for, at least, the first few months of 2021.

Written by Marco Amasanti, a leading analyst in the Retail sector, his extensive knowledge delivers in-depth commentary and analysis to highlight current trends and add expert context to the numbers.
The small domestic appliances market remained resilient in the face of COVID-19 uncertainty in the past year. Although the rate slowed slightly, spending grew again, aided by the market’s pre-existing maturity online and immediate opportunities amid extended periods inside, the uptake of new pastimes and a new focus on diet. Nonetheless, the unequal impact of this disruption has polarised demand in the marketplace, squeezing mid-market retailers as spending is divided between those limited to essentials and those upgrading as a result of this new demand.
