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.

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

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

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

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!?!
