<Product categories within the cooking program have been reorganized by AHAM and year over year comparisons are no longer possible. Total electric and total gas cooking comparisons are still valid.
Portable appliance shipment statistics will no longer be published, as AHAM has stopped reporting the data.
† Does not include exports.••Includes standalone DVD and DVD/VCR, and in 2007 includes next generation DVDs as well.
* Includes TV/VCR, TV/DVD and TV/VCR/DVD combinations.•The VCR deck category is no longer being reported by CEA.
•••Includes direct-view and projection. Projection televisions was deleted as a category in 2005 due to changes in CEA’s reporting procedure. They are now included in the digital television category. Includes flat-panel numbers. Digital TV numbers this year cannot be compared with digital TV numbers from last year, since the reports did not include flat-panel.
