In the United States, the market demand for electrical accessories is rising year by year. From smart homes to office equipment to outdoor electronic products, accessories for various electrical appliances are entering thousands of households. According to Statista, the size of the U.S. home appliance accessories market has exceeded $7 billion in 2024 and is expected to continue to grow in 2025. As consumption increases, the corresponding return volume also rises.
Return challenges brought by the growth of the U.S. electrical accessories market
As a product with strong functionality and a wide range of specifications, electrical accessories have a relatively high return rate due to size mismatch, compatibility issues or transportation damage. According to data from the National Retail Federation (NRF), the overall retail return rate in the United States in 2023 was 16.5%, of which the return rate of electrical products was higher than the average, reaching 19.4%. Especially for orders placed on e-commerce platforms, due to the lack of offline experience links, buyers frequently have problems such as mis-purchase of accessories and cognitive bias.
Therefore, how to quickly and accurately handle the return quality inspection of electrical accessories is not only related to user satisfaction, but also affects the seller's inventory turnover and operating costs. Cross-border sellers especially need a professional and efficient local return warehouse support in the United States to solve problems such as time difference, high freight, and slow operation.
How to choose a suitable US return warehouse?
When choosing a cooperative warehouse for quality inspection of electrical accessories returns, sellers are most concerned about three points: processing efficiency, quality inspection capabilities, and service transparency. Especially for electrical accessories with complex functions, not only standard quality inspection processes are required, but also detailed manual review capabilities and understanding of category differences. And this is one of the key problems that U-Speed's US return warehouse can solve for sellers.
