UK Members which Hotpoint WMA should I go for

[hotpointwfwt02]

Hi i have got a Hotpoint WMA63P and it's bearings are going and on their way out and I think there's no point repairing it as its 14-15 years old so which Hotpoint WMA should I go for. It has to be with the blue badge and I have 4 choices (WMA66,WMM65,WMA76,WMM75) and I will pick 1 out of the 4 choices. Which 1 out of the 4 choices should I go for and which 1 colour scheme should I choose out of the 4 (Polar White,Natural Linen,Satin Aluminium,Zircon Silver). Anyone got any opinions/suggestions on which model and which colour scheme I should get. My mum likes the Zircon Silver WMA66. The WMM is a Satin Aluminium BTW. I will get it when I have plumbing in my room.

Pick whichever one you like, and whichever has the features you need. As for colour - that's a personal choice, nobody can tell you what colour to get.

I will decide whatever I want. I'm only asking everyone's suggestions about it as I'm undecided and would like other's opinions before I get whatever it will be / what most people say.

Perhaps you'd be better to ask specific questions around features to get more relevant answers. If everyone told you to buy a specific colour that wasn't your favourite, would you pick that or your favourite choice?!

A question: why do you want to replace the machine rather than repairing the bearings? Does it not do things you want it to do?

I wouldn't recommend anyone bought a Hotpoint, based on my experiences with the brand, unless it's an older simpler one and you're handy enough to do the work to fix issues yourself.

Seeing as you're asking for opinions though - in MY opinion, white appliances look the nicest, and the 'linen' colour is the least attractive, but I don't much like the silver or aluminium colour schemes either.

I would pick my favourite choice. I want to replace the machine because it's 14-15 years old and I don't see the point in doing bearings on a 14-15 year old machine. And also because I would like a later version.
Which Hotpoint did you have and what was the bad experience like and what year was it that you had the bad experience? I'm handy enough to do the work to fix issues as in November 2014 i put new bearings in a WT740 and March 2015 bearings in a WT960
