Emerson was the first to sell electric fans in the United States in 1892, and soon it expanded its product line to include electric sewing machines, electrical dental drills, and power tools.

NBC HEROES LAWSUIT On October 2, 2006, Emerson, the company that makes the popular In-Sink-Erator garbage disposals, filed suit in federal court against NBC regarding a scene that appeared in the pilot episode. The scene depicted Claire Bennet reaching into an active garbage disposal to retrieve a ring, and severely injuring her hand in the process. Emerson's suit claims the scene "casts the disposer in an unsavory light, irreparably tarnishing the product" by suggesting that serious injuries will result "in the event consumers were to accidentally insert their hand into one." NBC, (Formerly an acronym for the National Broadcasting Company until 2004), is an American television and radio network based in New York Citys Rockefeller Center. ...
