Hotpoint UK Washers & Dryers - 1st Automatic to final New Generation

Automatic Washer - The world's coolest Washing Machines, Dryers and Dishwashers

No photo here :-(

The Best Buy washing machine, was Model 1827 Super Electronic, boasting economy wash, gentle action and slow spin options, with 800 and 500rpm spin speeds.

I have never seen a photo of this machine, but do own a powder drawer fascia from one.

Basically, take the Model 1700 dryer - add 4 switches in standard Liberator colours to the fascia and add a plain white (turned yellow) powder drawer fascia, with 'Super Electronic' in later 18 series standard script printed on it, to the mix and you have a 1827.
 
thats it for tonight.

This evenings machines take us through to May 1979.

The following month would see a new series of restyled machines released for sale and the abandonment of the name 'LIBERATOR'.

to be continued!

Hotpoint - The Liberators....

Excellent thread Paul and all that have contributed, Hotpoint was the workhorse of British laundry from the first badged Maytag (Model E) gyrator machines, to the BTH cabinet models, its great to see the progression through the eyes of British Industrial Designers and Engineers...and also those field engineers, Thank You Hotpoint.

Heres my 1501 , the blue fascia definately makes it!!

This is a truly excellent thread Paul. The history of Uk Hotpoint. Wow those top loaders. I just wish that i could add a touch of information but i can't for now, but i will try when you get a bit nearer to the end of it.

Hi Mike, So the 1509/10 had a viterous outer? Wonder if it was something like the plastic was being trialed on the 1504. Andy
 
Hawk eye! lol

Have 15790 manual, but never heard of a viterous outer, can imagine an unbalanced load would sound awful with the chances of the inner hitting the outer, ouch! Will have to dig if their is anything in the way of older manuals in my clutches on the TL's. Andy
 
Hi Mike,

Nice 1501 with with the Blue agi & filter tray, was the agitator blue or has that come out of your 1450 ? I know the filter tray and nozzle were, but the agi i have in my 1501 is white with a blue knob.

I can check out the 1504 weights when i get home tonight.

The outer drum

from the service manuals show that
1507, 1509/01/02/05/10 are polyprolene
1504 polyprolene
1502 viterous enamel
I live and learn =)
