Hi all,
This lovely machine came with my fantastic Hotpoint Micro Profile. It originally came from CJ (thanks CJ!) and it's my first step into the world of Servis automatics. I'm led to believe that it's a very rare model and most likely a retailer or catalogue exclusive but I'm not sure which one. It is based on the Quartz Plus and was made sometime during 1990 which is quite late for a machine of this style as the Sapphire was already on sale and the company was about to go into liquidation the following year (1991). If anybody can shed some light on the Spectrum+ I would be glad to know a bit more about it.
The machine is in very good condition and it doesn't need any work done to it other than a scrub and a polish which will be done sometime this week. It did have a sticky on/off switch but it turns out the mechanism was just stuck after a long period of disuse so that is now sorted.
I do quite like the subtle pink line across the dispenser handle LOL and overall I'm very happy with this machine. I've certainly noticed the difference in dimensions compared to the Hotpoints which makes it easier to place in my wooden house. Very stable when spinning too!
