The US dominated the global power lawn and garden equipment market with nearly 50% market share in 2014.

Power lawn and garden equipment are used to maintain a healthy lawn. Proper mowing, irrigation, fertilizing, and thatch control provide a healthy, dense, and high quality lawn. The power lawn or mower has witnessed transition from the traditional hand-guided mowers to the automatic electric mowers. The global robotic lawn mower market is witnessing massive growth in its sales worldwide.

Manufacturers of power lawn and garden equipment are increasingly incorporating cutting-edge technologies to enhance productivity and income. The introduction of robotic and battery-powered outdoor lawn mowers has increased sales on both a per-unit basis and overall market basis. Consumers face issues such as high fuel prices and environmental concerns while operating equipment powered by ICEs. Therefore, they are increasingly opting for electric or battery-powered products. Approval of fuel blends with a high proportion of ethanol at fueling stations is also a major concern for consumers. This has increased the popularity of equipment that runs on electric power.

According to the report, the need to provide aesthetic appeal to residential and commercial properties for recreational as well as official activities has increased the popularity of landscaping in the country. As a result, the landscaping of outdoor spaces and yards has gained considerable momentum. The construction of decorative structures, patios, ponds, and green winding paths is gaining traction in the outdoor landscaping market in the US. Unfavorable weather conditions such as heavy snowfalls, floods, and dry summers create demand for the repair of different types of landscapes, including lawns, hedges, trees, and gardens, triggering a need for power lawn and garden equipment.
