Ho, I would love to have a Hotpoint Microtronic 18780 X2000.
I know someone who is an engineer in the washing machine repair trade and has one on his patch, in mint condition, I keep begging him to let me have it when current owners have done with it, it’s not close to me, but I would find a way of getting it.
Hotpoint Model A - 1940`s which was based on the Maytag Model E - Hotpoint UK had an alliance with Maytag to supply / build them etc...next on the list for a re-build / spa treatment!!!

Here are my 2 Hotpoint machines. WM41 and 1509. The 1509 is not a "True" Liberator in the sense that although it's purple its a model 1509/05 which is called the "Automatic De Luxe" and has different comestic changes rather than the true Liberator version being 1509/10 which is called the "Liberator Super De Luxe". The main difference being that the true liberator has the rinse hold button and has different graphics around the dials and buttons. (I hope that ramble made sense). Mike has the true liberator version..Mike has that been fixed yet?
I have had many machines come and gone but these 2 I intend not to part with. I love them both and really enjoy using and of course watching both..lol
The Hotpoint Light n Easy was my 1st ever vacuum!! Was my Mums one and she gave it to me when it was replaced by an Electrolux 160, I think I was about 6 or 7. My Nan, Grandma, and two of my Auntys all had Electrolux 160's then 170's. I loved them! Rob, are they yours or is that Mikes collection?
Mark, You Hotpoint toploader is soooo lovely!! Hope you are well, I might have to pop out to chack out your machines soon!!
