Nice Pair
I couldn't get the link to work - try this one. These look to be early-to-mid 80's.

1974-75
This was the next step or two down from the TOL Lady Executive. The washer lid should have a scrub board attached to the inside. The timer control knobs changed to the more familiar and easier to grip & turn knobs shortly after these early models. Hotpoint retained this similar panel style until 80-81 when they went to the black face and wood grain panel top.
I got this LE model from a couple in Ohio that recognized it's vintage charm and posted it here on the board. It's a fantastic washer and had been a lot of fun. I'm using a GE Activator in it now, it's a really great washer.

Always thought that vintage of Hotpoint had nice-looking panels.

Always wondered...
What that little spout thing was on the left side under the washer lid was. Also never really knew what the plastic thing on the lid was either, maybe a detergent dispenser?

Hi Doug-
The bracket on the underside of the lid holds a box for detergent and the spout on the left side of the opening is the water fill that flushes the powder out of the box. You can set the machine to do two washes and timed soak automatically and with the box in place, there was no need come back to add more detergent for the second wash.
I don't have the box for mine, it was missing when the sellers acquired the washer in their new home. That was a TOL feature, all the other models would have been a standard flume and no dispenser.

yah I noticed these too. A local appliance dealer and they want WAY too much for these in my opinion.
