In 2017, data from the U.S. Census Bureau showed household furniture products at $30.7 billion in imports versus only $3.2 billion in exports.

Despite an upswing of $1 billion in export growth from 2009 to 2015, household furniture exports declined by 7.1 percent down to $3.15 billion from 2015 to 2017.
