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?

Modern machines
I think it is a minefield now days with modern machines, if i had to buy a new machine that i felt would last it would be a Miele i suppose, i have a bosch 1400 express which hasnt given any trouble bit i must admit i dont have any faith in its longevity
From where i work the most common makes of newish machine to come in are indesit/hotpoint (igoniring the cheap brands) but then perhaps they sell more than other makes
As a big fan of old Hoover washers as i am it would take a lot convincing to get me to buy any modern machine made by them
as I said to me new machines are mine field
right thats me tuppence worth

Miele and Bosch are good but Miele are too expensive although they are worth it and Bosch are a bit noisy and they only do one 1600rpm washer (i think) in the UK and that is an 8kg model!
Ah ive not yet read Samsungfl's experience with Hoover. I know you don't have to look hard to see examples of modern Hoover machines with patchy build quality though - the amount of newer Nextra machines on Ebay alone that are broken is enough to get alarm bells going. I just find they have a slight quirkiness about them that so many machines don't. I was hoping the Vision HD's would be a step in a better direction but already seen a couple of them for sale needing new PCBs so i dunno :S
I think it all depends how much youre willing to spend. Miele are very good, and work out good value for money considering their long life, but many people don't have upwards of £500 for a washing machine so of the other makes, i'd go with either Bosch or Zanussi (or the other Electrolux brands). Neither will see more than 8 years maximum, but they should at least prove reliable until that point, something i couldnt be so sure about with any of the other makes, like Hoover, Indesit, Hotpoint etc.

Yes, Hoovers look nice but they arent the most reliable at all.Hotpoint arent bad, Ariston are Terrible and Indesit are alright but are very noisy. Indesit balance sensors are also alot more sensitive than current day Hotpoints, I thought that was wierd.Our Hotpoint has moved a few times but it hasnt done it lately.
