B&M will always have the niche for impulse purchases because you can have it in your hand and start using it now. But for big ticket items that need to be delivered anyway, there is no reason to buy them B&M.

The same source that tableplay just quoted says this :
"Forrester predicts that online sales will account for 17% of all US retail sales by 2022, up from a projected 12.7% in 2017, according to Forrester's new Online Retail Forecast as cited by Digital Commerce 360. The report also expects US online sales to grow 13% YoY in 2017, which is five times faster than projected offline sales growth, and in line with the National Retail Federation's estimates."
