Proctor Silex Knows Value

Affordable Products Please the People!

The Proctor Silex company history is probably the most unlikely company to emerge from a history dating as far back as 1920, when it was a Philadelphia textile company once upon a time.

The company, then known as Proctor & Schwatz, Inc. decided to foray into the thermostat business and set their eye on the Iron and Coffeemaker company Silex in the 1960s. The companies merged and it was renamed Proctor Silex. (Poor Schwartz!)

From there the company met great success in their wide ventures in all sorts of appliances. From toasters to coffeemakers and yes, even blenders. It wasn’t until 1990 that they were united with Hamilton Beach by way of a deal established by NACCO Industries Inc. (That’s right, the North American Coal decided to dabble in housewares around that time).

Today, the company supplies products that can be most succinctly described as inexpensive Hamilton Beach products. Yes, Virginia, you can buy a blender for around twenty dollars!


What You Can Expect

Just as those seeking to purchase a top of the line Blendtec or Vitamix blender know the costs of what they’re getting into, those looking to buy a this brand should also know that a twenty dollar blender won’t be at the top of its game in terms of performance. It may not be the prettiest girl on the block, or the strongest guy in the gym, but it will get the fundamental job done, at a pretty darn good value to boot.
