A perfect example of how good the hotpoints are, i really like it now that i've seen propa pics of it. Nice big roomy drum but the times are not ridiculous as my Lg takes 2hours 8 minutes on cottons 40oc.

I like ur quality of pics and ur machine still looks great.
So how old is it now?
 
I have to say......I wish i'd never sold my WM43 for a current hotpoint...and i loved my wt960g so much that i replaced it with a 12year old bosch!:D

I've heard the current WMD models are better. They replaced the suspension on the WT960 with that of the current WMD960 the first spin on the first load after the repair it span first time! I was impressed. But then it went back to its 20million throw around distributions as they do.

I think for the price. The bosch classixx & Zanussi essentials are the way to go.

The hotpoint service is still acceptable and as mike says they do offer alot. However naturally as indesit have more influence its not as good as genuine hotpoint ever was:-)

My Hotpoint

Hi Dyson 2 Drums, sorry I don,t know ur first name. I love this machine to bits. The shirt programme is ace. It fill up almost have way up the door with nice soapy water, has a vigerous was action, but rinses are more gentle.

The only bad point is the cotton cycle, but it really does clean very well. I am not normally a lover of hotpoint and I ordered this one by mistake, so glad I kept it now.

The door reminds me of a Bendix 7147 machine, the glass door on these machines use to slope. Loading and unloading is great to.

Regards

Yes the aqualtis is good but long wash times are pretty much on every machine nowadays, i think in the future hotpoint will add their 6o minute and 15 minute washes on their hotpoint aqualtis range. I also saw a vid on youtube, that had steam function and it had shirts hooking thingies.
Have u seen the video by any chance?

Thanks for ur reply.

Hi,

No I have not seen the video yet. It does sound interesting. Have u any photos of bendix machines in the 1970s. My aunty had a bendix. It was the same size as the home laundry machines, with the soap dispenser on the top. It had one dial for selecting the wash programmes, and a button she would hold in to select the wash time. It had lights for wash, rinse, spin. The programme stage was like a reel of paper that would go through, wash, rinse spin.

I would love to see a photo of this machine.
