Seventy-seven percent of today's consumers have an outdoor room and about three-fourths own a grill. That's according to new research from Casual Living and New York-based Apartment Therapy. About one-fourth of owners purchased the grill first when furnishing their outdoor space and 21% say they use the grill more than any other outdoor product. Casual Living and New York-based Apartment Therapy fielded an online consumer survey in 2014. The survey, asking readers about the outdoor spaces in and around their home, garnered responses from more than 400 consumers.
