Dettol is Australia’s most trusted brand with rotary clothes line manufacturer Hills Hoist regarded as the most iconic in the country, according to a new study.
The germ-killing disinfectant edged out Colgate and Dyson while Hills Hoist, a backyard feature in Australia since 1945, beat Arnott’s and Vegemite to top spot, the Reader’s Digest Most Trusted Brand survey found.

Please stop sending me solicited competition mail. Someone signed me up as a joke – yet Readers Digest continually bombard me with low quality dodgy scam competitions. What, is this 1980 still?
