Salton also manufactures the Juiceman and Breadman series of home appliances and owns the divisions Maxim and Toastmaster.
Its headquarters are in Miramar, Florida. The company was founded in 1947 by Lou Salton, a Jewish immigrant from Poland.
In 2001, General Time Corporation, parent company of Westclox, a clock manufacturer, went bankrupt, and sold the Westclox trademarks to Salton.
Salton was licensed to make small appliances such as vacuum cleaners under the Westinghouse name, from 2002 to 2008.
On 6 August 2007, Salton was suspended from the NYSE. It was subsequently listed on the OTC Bulletin Board, changing its symbol from SFP to SFPI.
