Another one
and one now in our collection,
The uber rare Hotpoint 95360,
3 buttons...
Slow Spin
Economy Wash
Half Load
Rare due to the fact the 4 button machine the 95450/2 was only £5 more to buy so you either bought the 4 button with Auto Prewash or the £10 less expensive 2 button variant with Economy wash and half load.
Machine is in fab condition bar the lid which is scratched and missing side strips.
The poor machine will be put back right soon upon finding a nice lid and having an original dial in clear plastic (thank god we own several original dials) and side strips fixing on.
We spent last saturday in Cardiff giving it a new lease of life with the spa treatment and a run through with some laundry - thread to follow soon I think.

Hi
Im new here so apologies if i shouldve posted somewhere else first to say hi, but 'hi everyone'
I found the website by accident after Googling 'Hoover A3350', which id seen on Ebay! Im amazed there's so many other people as mad about washing machines as myself!
Currently ive just the one washing machine of my own, a 1980s Zanussi FL1012, which i bought on Ebay for £15 in 2007. I got it for my first house but that's now rented out and the machine is in my parents garage whilst im back home. Gotta give it a run when i finally convince Mum to let me move her 20 month old Zanussi Essential into the garage!
Anyway, i don't wanna hijack the thread, just wanted to say what a great lot of pics of the Hotpoints. My Mum had the Electronic Deluxe 95450 when i was born, to replace her Servis Twin Tub. It was one of my earliest memories of washing machines, spent hours watching it, got a photo somewhere but it's identical to one pictured further up the thread.
It lasted around 12 years, tho did have quite alot of engineers visits during its time, mostly brushes & door seals. Tho the final nail in its coffin was the suspension leg coming away from its mountings meaning the drum started to move about too much (tho no more than our modern day Zanussi). I think that was discovered at the same time as a overfilling fault was being investigated. It also leaked from underneath & used to struggle to start back up after heating the water, so after 12 years of heavy use (including tonnes of boilwashes with my terry-towling nappies), the parents decided to move on & it was replaced by a cheaper but decent Indesit Omega.
Anyway, enough of me, i look forward to chatting to you guys soon
Best wishes,
Liam.

Hi FL1012! Our Hotpoint WM53 sadly died on Valentines Day 2009.So not such a good present! After loads of overloaded washes though. It has washed everything without problems.Here are some things it has washed: A Thick Woollen Blanket, 2 pairs of trainers and a Double Duvet! The carbon brushes failed so we got a new one, Also Hotpoint.It is a Hotpoint WML 540.
ChesterMikeUK: I have never sen so many Twin-Tubs in one place.How many machines do you have?I cant identify any models because i am hopeless with Twin-Tubs!
NewWave1: Why did you sell your WM43? lol It was such a great machine!
I am glad that so many good washing machines have went to so many good owners, Instead of just being crushed!

Hi HooverKeymatic
I agree, it's really good to see so many machines have been saved, i just presumed theyd all been scrapped, so i'm really pleased to have found this site.
I wonder where my parents old 95450 is, we gave it to a workmate of Dads to use as parts for his Hotpoint, but it was still working.

How do again, Liam.
The 95450/452 - grew up with one of each.
My god mum had a 95450, which she ran into the ground washing her and her 4 daughters clothes. My dad repaired it many times and I think it saw about 8 to 10 years use, but was a visual disaster by the end.
It lived with the matching dryer stacked on top for about 5 years until the dryer was 'grounded'.
My parents had a 95452 which went from 1986ish through to 2006ish, and gave up just before I started collecting. Had it lasted another year or two, then it would still be around.
A fantastic machine, which lead a much more gentle life than my god mums machine and had about three repairs on it in its whole life.
It had a new motor, after my mum overloaded it with a coat full of padding. The coat just absorbed all the water the machine could throw at it and, in the end, became so heavy that the motor couldnt turn it and gave in with a BIG bang.
New motor installed, all it had after that was two or three pairs of new brushes.
It was disposed of in immaculate condition apart from the obligatory chipped door release. It had side strips fully intact and there was not a trace of rust anywhere. Also having been cleaned on the outside regularly it shone.
Hopefully it will have been shredded as I'd hate for it to be sat in landfill getting compressed or having houses built on top of it.
just fond memories.

When we got our new machine, Curry's took our old Hotpoint WM53 away. I think they took it to the tip.

There will be more pics later on! Thats not all Don't Worry! lol
Ello!
Haha, our 95450 had a chipped door release! It was abit of a fiddly design to operate i thought. The later 80s Hotpoints when Aquarius was introduced appeared abit more robust, tho it went backwards again when the last of the British models was lauched, with that kinda thumb operated catch. It seemed more robust but i dunno how keen id be on fiddling with that on a daily basis.
Our 95450 had lost some of the brown side strip tho, and it was rusting around the base of the door opening, where quite a few seals had leaked. The powder drawer had been replaced with a more modern one after i pulled the original one off as a toddler, too!
Both my parents and your parents one share a common feature tho - their love for motor brushes! I think we had a set every year, as did our neighbours with the exact same model!

The Hotpoints used to eat their brushes for breakfast i swear. Crazy appetite for them! The modern Indesit Hotpoints lose their bearings or blow a PCB before anything else seems to even get a look in.
The new Hotpoints are very poor, the merger has really let down all the makes involved (Indesit/Ariston/Hotpoint). its odd coz Indesit used to make pretty decent machines i thought. Our 1990s Omega was more reliable than even the 80s Hotpoint, yet now it seems 18 months-4 years is the most youll see out of any of them. Sad times.

We have a new Hotpoint. It is a WML540 in Graphite. It spins at a maximum of 1400rpm.It can wash up to 6kg of clothes.So far it has been pretty good.It has give me one error code though but i just reset the machine and it was fine.

Certainly alot of people rave about them, and theyre alot quieter when washing than my Mums 2007 Zanussi Essential, which wines like mad, but its just the error codes & premature bearing failure that gets me twitchy. Zanussi appear abit stronger in the bearing & fault code department i think.
Happy to be proven incorrect tho, im no expert by any means.
You wernt convinced to get a Hoover Nextra or Vision HD tho?
