Maybe not.

Were they there previously?
I don't know for certain, I'm not a Hotpoint fan - never have been.

These manufacturer websites seem to be notoriously unreliable (Hoover is another), where new machines take an age to materialise on the site, despite the fact that they have been in the shops for months. And then there are the fibs they tell, about features the appliance has, when in reality it doesn't (Hoover again).

Funny how they would discontinue them not long after launching them.
@rolls-Rapide: they were originaly on the website

Ta.

Very odd indeed. Maybe Indesit are cutting back?

 

[boschlover1997]

yeah they were originally which makes me wonder.
also comet went into administration today.

 

[aegokocarat]

its a shame about comet btw.
It is possible that indesit are cutting back as said by Rolls-Rapide

 

[boschlover1997]

hmm, im more of a fan of hotpoint than indesit to be honest, i just find indesit really boring

 

[aegokocarat]

im not a fan of either.
I love my samsung, my parents miele is super fun to watch

Noticed this myself earlier when I happened to visit the site on a whim. Note that if you download the brochure they still show the new range.

 

I find modern Hotpoint fairly yawnsome to be honest...not even sure why I visited the site!

Who killed Comet?

Irony, but so true - answer is in the link...

 

[chestermikeuk]

Incorrect...

It was one of the major suppliers altering their terms and conditions to suit......and wouldnt you like to know which one that was!!!

Very naughty of appliances on line to put the boot in though, just goes to show, nothing is as it seems... ....Lets hope their next competitor pays them the same vitreolic visit one day, as recent company reports promote - cashflow is always an issue!!!

Karma it appears has just re-entered the atmosphere, and not before time!!

If you look at other countries' websites, like Italy where the old range was totally discontinued, you'll see that there are no washing machines at all. It's just a database update in my opinion, no series was discontinued

Please pray tell just what you are basing this theory on??

Indesit Company website issues

Indesit Company seem to be very bad at updating there website. Especially the Hotpoints side.
No there lines haven't been discontinued, there still in shops, and even if they have been discontinued, I am sure a new line will replace them. I already heard about a new Hotpoint Technology for the Aqualtis machines called Power foam (basically I think it will work like Samsung eco bubble), I also read somewhere Hotpoints HD technology could be rolled out to the Ultima's?? Could mean the 71l titanium drum is introduced on the Ultimas as well.

Hotpoint

Just a few of the old WML models remaining. Sorry about the quality !!!

 

[boschlover1997]

chestermike uk.. i base it on servisslimline telling me

and is a titanium drum really good?

 

[aquacycle]

for gods sake, there's a slight website change and everyone jumps the gun! Hold your horses, girls, lets wait and see. The current Hotpoints are still on sale on many websites and in many shops, I highly doubt they've been discontinued.

ok chill out! if you dont like whats been said then just dont comment! and i think most of us are boys/men on here.
