This is my first Thor appliance... and I'm hooked! I've only had it for less than a week but it's already proving its reliability and usefulness. I've got 4 boys - so having a working dishwasher is a lifesaver! I was looking for a sleek, stainless steel model with the basic features and ease of use, and this is it. Highly recommended and I'll be purchasing more Thor appliances in the near future!
