Hi James. Yep - people have asked the questions before, but it will be interesting to see whether you get the same answer! See what comes of it. Paul |

Hi James,
I hope something comes of your inquiry, i never hurts to let them know that you are looking for a vintage machine, however saying that I remember sending endless letters to Hotpoint, probably 1 every 6 months to let them know that i was interested in any old washers that they may get offered from old customers..and I think over a 5 year time frame they referred 3 machines to me, Hotpoint weren't great, and Hoover even less so..Servis were the best, and had quite a few from them..no auto's though !! Hoover were the only company I know that kept a sample of each machine, Hotpoint never did, and i even went to see the factory at Peterborough back in 1997 before the company was bought by merloni. They use to have a few old machines in a training room that i went too, and Servis use to have all their old machines in the reception of the head office. Well enough of me waffling on, and the Hotpoint 1504 is on the last rinse and needs softener adding..so good luck with your search !! Keith |
