Good luck to who ever buys this machine, im sure it must clean well. hotpoint shoudn't have copied samsung idea of injecting suds into the drum instead they should of brought back the powerstream idea, but increase the drum rotations to 500rpm with 2 recirculation jet at the back of the drum well as front of drum, do you think that would work.
by the way i own a samsung 12kg, i've notice the machine washes better with powder than liquid. the eco bubble is at its best 5mins into the soaking stage, eventually the suds will disappear on a full load, then it comes back again when eco bubble turns on. some people say the eco bubble idea is a pointless rip off, i disagree it does foam like crazy with the right detergent, such as daz or ariel, persil, is a no no for me.
