Congratulations!

Wow Craig, that looks absolutly stunning! Wish it were mine. Talking of new machines I am getting a Hotpoint First edition to fix.
 
First edit

What model First Edition are you getting Chris. If i had the time & space i would be repairing the Ecologic. It does 100% work, washes & dries but like most old Hoover's it needs new bearings so i will have to let it go which i absolutely hate doing. I just thought it would be nice to post a few photo's of it on here.
 
It looks lie really great!! does this washer/dryer dryes good? here in germany the old Hoover washerdryers are from Merloni (EBD)
 
good washer dryer there, quite a late 1 too from April 1993, I think Hoover made some EcoLogics in tandem with the New Wave/Classica machines as Currys exclusives until mid-1994, so it could of been made until then when the 1st Soft Waves appeared. But I am surprised of the lateness of this machine lol. :)
 
Finally something we agree on lol

The fact is that Candy own and manufacture Hoover. It's difficult to argue with a fact. Although, you'd probably give it a damn good try.
 
You been chewing a wasp today?

Not at all, I just can't stand people who try to insult me one minute and think I'll have forgotten about it in a few days and try to be nice as pie like butter wouldn't melt.
 
Chris, I really am not interested in who is right or wrong and rather we just get a long. Life is too short and I for one don't want enemies (not that I have any i hasten to add). So apologies if I insulted you. I am straight to the point I know and it comes across the wrong way sometimes don't take it personally as I am nothing like that in real life.
 
I think it's quite obvious that you don't think before you speak.

A lot of members on here have spent YEARS and a hell of a lot of money building their collections and are quite proud of their exceptional standards when it comes to laundry. So for you to sign up to the forum and immediately start telling longtime respected members that they're wrong is hardly the way to make friends.

You also seem completely oblivious to the fact that there are people on here with WAY greater knowledge than you. And I'm not talking about me either - the members who have been here for years have far greater knowledge than I do and I've picked up many tips from them all over the years. Next time somebody offers you a piece of advice or a helpful hint or tip, don't just dismiss it and tell them they're wrong. It is hardly the way to make a good impression now, is it?

Having said that, I've more than likely just wasted 2 minutes of my life typing that out as it all seems to go in one ear and out the other with you, until someone says something you want to hear.

Rant over.
 
and FYI, yes, you did insult me.

I've spent a LOT of time and effort listening to advice of those more knowledge than myself. I'm a self confessed clean freak and proud of my clean home and clean laundry.

So for you to come on here and make out like I know nothing after I've actually listened to other people and taken on what they've said and recomended and spent hours of trial and error to get the results I am happy with, something that you seem incapable of doing, is very insulting.
 
Ok point taken. I would rather ask for advice on here than go to Curry's if I needed help in deciding what washer to go for.

The whole point I joined the site was to share common interest and possibly meet new people.
