the 9506 isn't a Hotpoint that 1st springs 2 mind, but it's essentially a forerunner 2 the First Edition which appeared in September 1994 with the 1st linage of WM's
I like 2 call the 95-series machines of each range as the x-series of models, not 2 be confused with BMW's range of cars lol
The 0-series started it all in April 1986 and saw the 1st MicroProfile model in the range, 1st with 1300RPM spin then an updated model with 1400RPM spin
Next the 4-series models arrived in April 1988 and had the Bow Tie motif above the dial, the MicroProfile was updated in 1989 with the model number ending in 5, from then on the last digit in the number of that model would be 1 ahead with the rest of the range, also the final range 2 have the proud door and classic style of Hotpoint drum
A change in design occured with the 5-series lineup in April 1990, the 1st range 2 use the recessed door glass and Aquarius style of Hotpoint drum, this was the last range 2 have a MicroTronic model and the full size dryers was the last 2 have the back filter.
The Aquarius name 1st appeared with the 6-series models in the Summer of 1991, the Aquarius name was used on higher end models, and the MicroTronic was replaced with a MicroProfile model with a LCD calculator display and the dryers featured the Aquarius Drying System but was short lived as they adopted the Creda design soon after
Things get a bit confusing 4 the rest of its run, the 7-series arrived next and the Aquarius name appeared on all models, then the 8-series followed up in 1993, and finally the Aquarius Ultra 9-series models went on sale and I believe they were sold in parallel with Aquarius versions, as they previewed the look 4 the WM's that replaced them in September 1994.
and that's the story the of the 95xx Hotpoint's from 1986 to 1994, telling u about the range in more detail
