Salton 1.7L Variable Temperature Stainless Steel Kettle

Salton is a well-established brand in the small kitchen appliance industry, known for its wide range of household products. Its origins trace back to the United States in the mid-20th century, specifically founded by Lewis Salton in 1947, who initially gained fame for inventing the Salton Hotray. Over the decades, the brand became a staple in North American kitchens, expanding into kettles, toasters, and coffee makers.

Today, the brand operates as a major distributor of small appliances across North America. Ownership and distribution rights have shifted over time through various corporate mergers and acquisitions. In Canada, where this specific French/English packaged product is sold, the brand is managed by Salton Appliances (1985) Corp. Like most modern small appliance brands, manufacturing is primarily outsourced to specialized facilities in China to maintain competitive pricing while adhering to international quality standards.
