ill have a look on the new machine at work which is Indesit WIXXL146 i think its the same as the top uk machine!it has the hotpoint dispencer

 

[newwave1]

Wooooooooah talk about hybrid!

Look at this wf640 with a ariston uk round door! They should have made these hotpoints with round doors! they'd have looked better! lol! i've never seen a current hotpoint like it! lol.

How odd....

Darren

Ive never seen one of those- must have been an exclusive???

The round door looks SO! much better lol

Seamus

 

[newwave1]

Don't think it is! Is still is the same wf640 model number as the usual curved door model!

The round doors look better lol.

Hi guys
That wf640 is not an exclusive, the person selling it repairs and sells, he must have replaced the door maybe because it was broken.
hope that helps

 

[dyson2drums]

How can i forget, it looks much better than the hotpoint doors, but wouldn't look nice on the 2008 range.

 

[seamusuk]

The WF640

Hey Guys

It cant have had the door replaced as the doors are designed to fit flush with the cabinet..

I reckon its a FrankenHottie- the facia and some/all of the internals have been transplanted into a round door cabinet

Seamus

 

[newwave1]

Ya beat me to it seamus. As you say the panels are shaped around the door! Maybe they had to many bits left over from production of the ariston for currys range!?!

Another Morphed one!!

Apparently hey replaced the original drum with a washer dryer drum which can take more "ware and tear"

LOL
