ISE What a great looking machine you have Northernmary, the styling looks so elegant and the build quality looks strong too. Any chance you could make a vid of this fab machine in action? Rob

New design... This new generation of Hotpoints look very smart. I really like the simple streamline design, but I don't like the door handle as it looks like an after thought! Hehe Rob

Steam Cleaners I have been thinking of getting a Polti Vaporetto steam cleaner, as they can be used all around the home. The problem with steam mops is that they can only be used for floors! Rob

Hotpoint Liberator Hey, Paul and Rob It seems like a long time since I last saw the both of you at Mike's last wash-in! Congratulations on acquiring that lovely hottie, I'm sure you're both over the moon. Will the both of you be planning a wash-in any time in the future as I would love to...

Wash-in!! H Mike, I'm so glad I had the chance to see your fantastic collection of washers and vacs, It was also great to finally meet the lads. I hope your move goes smoothly and good luck in your new place and a new beginning in your life. Thanks for your hospitality, I had a really...

Washer cleaning Hi Hoovermatic, I use HG Service Engineer a couple of times a year to flush out any lint and soap scum build up in my washer-dryer. http://www.lakeland.co.uk/hg-service-engineer/F/product/20348

Hi Mike, ! had a good time that Monday learning about John's Hoover collection. I can't believe I missed that fabulous Hoover A3060 Electronic 1100. I will have to make it a full weekend next time so I don't miss anything! Hehe Thanks Rob

Chester Weekend Great pics lads. I wish these wash-in weekends were closer to the Midlands, I would like to see some of these collections. I really like the Bendix 7147B you have there, was it the one that was for sale on ebay? Rob

My mom has always had hotpoint washers and still does stick with them!!! The first machine she brought was the new generation 95620 in 1985, which lasted well into the mid 90's. I'm starting to appreciate classic hoover washers now, but I think you are bias to what you grew up with. Great...

Electra A3E12 Hi Mike, Thanks for the Hoover vid. I've never seen a washing machine run through a cycle without it's panels! Hehe The machine looks and sounds really sturdy for it's age. Thanks Rob

Thanks Paul. You certainly know your hotpoints, I need to start my own collection now Rob

The chrome doors on those hotpoints looked superb. I'm not sure whether the photo below is a 18380 or a 18680, I'm still learning! Lol Rob

Really like these classic hotpoints as they look so solid and good looking too. I would swap my AEG 1600 spin for this beauty. Rob

Wash in Brum What a great set of photos - everyone looks like they had a good time. John's collection of washers and dryers looks fab all stacked up. I'm a fan of Hotpoint as it's the brand I grew up with. I don't know much about Hoover washers and dryers, but the more I see of them the more...

Hotpoint's Hi Welcome Ultimafan and Mieleboy I'm a fan of hotpoint washers from the 70s and 80s. My mom's first hotpoint was the new generation 95620 which I loved to watch as a child. I do remember things going wrong with it on a regular basis through the years! Hehe I remember the...
