Unit 47 The Perfect Gift

W: Hello, and welcome to Robuck's.

How may I help you?

M: I would like to buy my wife a home appliance for her birthday.

W: What sort of appliance are you looking for, sir?

M: I think a dishwasher might be the perfect gift because it will help with the housework.

W: Oh yes, dishwashers are very useful.

This one here is our most popular model.

M: How does it work?

W: It's very simple.

First, collect your dirty dishes and scrape off the leftover food into the garbage can. Then, rinse the dishes in the sink. Put glasses, cups, and cutlery on the top rack. Plates, bowls, and pots go face down on the bottom rack. Then, fill this compartment with detergent and close the door. Next, choose the wash cycle, and finally, press the start button. You'll have sparkling clean dishes in 45 minutes!

M: That sounds easy to use.

I think my wife will really like it. How much does it cost?

W: You're lucky, sir!

It's on sale this week for $400.

M: Great, I'll take it!
