For example, while the macro-economy has been challenging, consumers are still willing to spend on lighting and furnishings whether they are renovating an existing home or moving into a new residence. Exactly what they intend to purchase and where (online versus various types of brick and mortar retailers) are among the revelations found in that CIN research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to French, two out of three consumers surveyed indicated they were willing to pay more for quality since they tend to hang onto these pieces for some time. \u201cThey are looking for durability, and they\u2019re willing to spend a little bit more if they think it\u2019s going to last,\u201d she said.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>French noted that today\u2019s consumers are omni-channel shoppers who combine online shopping \u2013 primarily for conducting research \u2013 with an in-store visit before making a purchasing decision. Younger Millennial consumers said they have used AI chats (i.e. ChatGPT) to search for furniture and make selections.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI encourage everyone to use their smart phone, pull up ChatGPT, and ask some questions, like, \u2018Where should I buy a sofa in my area?\u2019 Or, \u2018What\u2019s the best mattress to buy in my area?\u2019 and see what those results are because consumers are using that as a resource,\u201d French advised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Russell agreed, adding, \u201cConsidering the importance that people place on going to stores to buy, or as the second part of their shopping pattern after they do their research online, it seems like there are some takeaways for retailers to be aware of this tool that especially younger consumers are using.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To learn more about today\u2019s consumer shopping habits and what they report are the home furnishings categories they intend to purchase during the balance of the year, click the video link below to hear see the entire interview.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=QxZmPTEE3AY\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"583\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/lightingnewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Video-screenshot_1580-1024x583.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2108 lazyload\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/lightingnewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Video-screenshot_1580-1024x583.png 1024w, https:\/\/lightingnewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Video-screenshot_1580-300x171.png 300w, https:\/\/lightingnewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Video-screenshot_1580-768x437.png 768w, https:\/\/lightingnewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Video-screenshot_1580-1536x875.png 1536w, https:\/\/lightingnewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Video-screenshot_1580-450x256.png 450w, https:\/\/lightingnewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Video-screenshot_1580-20x11.png 20w, https:\/\/lightingnewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Video-screenshot_1580-225x128.png 225w, https:\/\/lightingnewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Video-screenshot_1580-900x513.png 900w, https:\/\/lightingnewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Video-screenshot_1580-1350x769.png 1350w, https:\/\/lightingnewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Video-screenshot_1580.png 1580w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In this exclusive video, Editor-in-Chief Tom Russell of sister publication Home News Now sits down with research expert Dana French to discuss the key findings uncovered in the fall edition of the Consumer Insights Now survey.
