Washes Clothes. . .
Just heap in the washing M’lady. . . flick the dial. . . and Thor’s agitator-action swirls out every particle of grit and grime. Then Thor overflow rinses the clothes as no other washer can. Dirt, soap and scum are flooded off . . . instead of being drained back into the fabrics. This Thor process equals eight ordinary rinses. Thor then “spins” the clothes ’til they’re 20% drier than wringer-dry. Some pieces you can iron immediately. And the average household wash for four people is done in less than an hour!

Washes Dishes . . .
A swift switch of inner tubs (it takes just 90 seconds) and Thor is a dishwasher to wash crockery, cutlery, glassware – a table service for six in one load – and all the pots and pans, too. Detergent-charged hot water sprays away the grease. . . gets dishes sparklingly, hygienically clean. “Fanned” air does the drying. Imagine, the washing-up and drying-up over and done with in just about four minutes! Not once, M’lady, are your hands in hot water.

Millions of housewives in America, England and 69 other countries are glad. . . they waited for Thor.
