Abstract

A washer/dehydrater of the present invention comprises a washing tub and a vessel-like stirrer accommodated in a lower portion of the washing tub. The washing/dehydrating is performed through a washing step, a dehydrating step, a pre-rinsing step and a rinsing step. The washing and rinsing steps are performed by having the washing tub substantially stationary and rotating the stirrer forwards and backwards in a predetermined cycle period. The dehydrating step is performed by rotating the washing tub and stirrer in unison with each other in one direction at a high speed to thereby dehydrate the laundry. The pre-rinsing step is performed immediately before the rinsing step, which is performed after the dehydrating step, by rotating the stirrer forwards and backwards in a shorter cycle period than the aforesaid cycle period in the washing and rinsing steps.
