Since the early 1970s, the GHS has recorded a steady increase in the ownership of consumer durables. Ownership of a refrigerator rose from 73% of households in 1972 to 95% in 1985.
Other household amenities that were available only to a minority of households in the early 1970s were also more widespread by 2002. For example, the percentage of households with central heating rose from 37% in 1972 to 93% in 2002.
By the mid-1990s, most homes had access to a freezer, a washing machine, a telephone and a television. The proportion of households with access to more recently introduced items (such as the dishwasher, tumble drier and microwave) continues to rise.
Since their introduction to the survey, entertainment items have become much more widely available. Access to a television has always been highly prevalent (93% of households in 1972, rising to 99% in 2002).
