Thor Automagic Washing Machine (1955)

  THOR Washing Machine and Dishwasher I was contacted by a gentleman in the midlands last year who had this Thor Automagic semi-automatic washing machine for sale, it had been in his family since new and he remembered it being at his grans house. He told me the story at christmas it was his treat to help his dad remove the washtub and insert the dishwasher tub  for all the party dishes, the one time a year it was used!! A group of us set too and got it working again, now its all test it will be sent to the washer spa for a spruce up, it must have been such a treat to use this after a traditional wringer washer, it washes, rinses, spin drys, can store the wash water to wash multiple loads and also wash dishes as well!! Do you remember your family having one of these, perhaps seeing it being used as a dishwasher, let us know and share  your memories of the Thor Automagic!!
