I know that UK and US Hotpoint are different companies----

Is UK Hotpoint only laundry? US Hotpoint includes cooking, refrigeration, and dishwashers.

Smart looking machines!

I'd sure check them out if I were to buy a new washer...

And yes, European Hotpoint has a complete line of appliances, ranging from washing machines to ovens to refrigerators and wine cellars and coffee machines.

Here's the link to the UK website.

I was wondering what Hotpoint were going to do to redesign their machines after having the 'Aristonesque' door look for over a decade. Love that stainless steel ultima, looks much nicer in a kitchen compared to aluminium.

Quite like the look of the washers apart from not doing away with them awful cold eco wash programmes. But they have made a terrible mistake of doing away with the glass doors on the vented dryers & putting horrible all plastic ones on.

Looks good....

The Aqualtis doesn't look dramatically different, only the lower models stand out as being new, mainly because of the different door. However the dryer looks much better than the current design.

Lets hope they've put as much thought into what's underneath this time.

'does anyone else think the programm dial on the top two

You arent the first person to mention that!

A group of us saw the thread, whilst at a small wash-in in Bristol (Dyson CR01, Philips Slimstar AWB117, Hotpoint 18580 amongst others) - cant remember who mentioned it, but the dial likeness to the old 17 and 18 series machines was flagged up.

A tribute to an old design by accident, or intentional?

Noticed it...

Paul, and I bet it's probably accidental.

Indesit want nothing to do with Hotpoint except their good name and reputation IMO.

I have noticed a little thing about the design of the WM5* machines in that the dispenser is shaped a little like the 18**/* machines don;t you think?

P.S. I've also sent you an email RE my machine.

I don't think it's. If they were trying to pay homeage to previous models, they would have made a black/white or brown/almond model.

The WMAL621 seems to have hit the shops now, for the sum of £250, though it's not on the Hotpoint site yet, surely they should have done a brochure now. Here is the link, I think the new Aqualtis is on it too, but they are marketed as stock coming soon.

If they were to tribute the classics they would have purplen or brown trim, chrome doors and even a square door model in tribute to the 1600.

Hi Rob.

Hope all is well with you and totally agree with your sentiments with the New non-Aqualtis range.

The facias look considerably smarter than the current models, but that door handle doesnt half look clumsy. A shame.

The condenser dryers look..........erm.........unusual too.

Hope the Vented dryers are going to have glass doors.
I think the plastic one looks cheap, and will break easier.

Plus Hotpoints History-almost every single vented dryer that's came out has had a glass door, so I hope these have no exceptions.

I think everyone needs to calm down

as we've only seen the condensor dryer models, which, apart from the Aqualtis, doesn't have glass fronts. We've yet to see the vented dryer models, which are the TVAM70CP and TVAL73CG, those could still possibly have glass doors.

All the new hotpoint vented dryers will have glass free plastic doors. I just hope they don't do the same with the indesit vented dryers. Knowing indesit company they probably will do. Is it me or do they look bloody awful. Not a good match if your putting them next to each other in the kitchen.

Aqualtis

They will probably keep there 62l drum, or they might put the Extendia 90l drum inside, or they might create a new drum volume, I am told that like Miele, Bosch, LG, Hoover, Samsung drums. These Aqualtis have a special drum (Called the 'Fibretech' drum).
Wonder what that's like, or will it just be the holes are smaller?
Link to that site is below!

In terms of the dryers-(optima), No one knows whether they have glass in or not, as they haven't got any information about them yet. It would be a shame if they don't, though from pictures I seen at a festival in London in May, they do look like some dryers have glass doors. (Just hope there Vented ones, not just Indesit Prime dryers).

Looks like the Ultima's get the glass door, whilst the standard condensers get the weird non-glass door.

The latter dont look too pretty, in my opinion, but I like this top end dryer.

I keep checking the website daily, in the hope that they update the bloomin brochures. grrrrrrrrr.

Thanks for the link, ultimafan.

I hope the Vented's do get glass door.
I have noticed the dryers have cuddly toys cycle. I suspecting this is going to be a drying basket-like Indesits shoes cycle. Do you think I am correct?

Shoe cycle

optima's profile picture
Indesit dryer shoes cycle about as usless as the shoe cycle in there washers. Have also noticed that white knight have started putting a free flimsy looking shoe rack in there dryers. I just dont like the idea. What a waste of energy to put just a pair of shoes in to dry them. Its just as easy to put them on top of the radiator to dry.

The dryer dries them much faster than the radiator actually, and not all people have radiators you can put things on. My grandma has radiators that are electric and cannot be covered.
Plus they are a good idea these racks, as you can also use them to dry delicate items, you wouldn't normally put in a dryer.

Hey everyone

Just found out, the new Hotpoint 11kg Aqualtis has a drum capacity of 71 litres, 9 litres bigger than the previous Aqualtis drum which was also used in the latest Ultima models (being 62 litres)

Sorry what i should of said was water filled radiators run off a central heating system not a electric storage,oil filled,convector or panel heater. I will check the drying times of the Indesit shoes cycle tomorrow at work. It will be interesting to see how long it lasts for & at what temperature "hi or low" it dries them at.

this is fast becoming a Hotpoint unveiling thread...

I've now seen another new model, this time on the Comet website, a larger 10kg Hotpoint Ultima, which is Polar with a silver door. I was hoping that it had Steam washing, but zooming into the picture I found something interesting, it seems that it haa some sort of 'Auto Clean' programme, is it for the clothes or for maintenance of the machine?

@at everyone discussing the Hotpoint drying system for shoes and wools: I think the machine will have a drying basket, as the door is round but flat at the bottom. Personally I wouldn't tumble dry shoes, as I think the plastics on them wouldn't be able to withstand the hot temperatures of the dryer (a lower temperature would take ages I think) so I'd stick to drying them outside. However I do like the idea of a wools basket as Hotpoint have really been pushing their wool drying, so a basket is the icing on the cake for them, though I've always wondered if wool had to be marketed as dryer safe or not.

The Cleaning action option on this machine, isn't a maintenance cycle, its simply is like indesit primes Smart Button (or a Soil level selector like on previous Ultimas with blue display WT960), It extends or shortens the wash, and adjusts the wash action depending on selected cleaning action.

In Italy, the 11KG Aqualtis manuals are available and they state 71l drums, I am suspecting this Ultima will have a 71l drum also. Looks smart!

I've seen the new Aqualits and Ultima machines the other day at Currys. The Ultima seems pretty sturdy, and the door handle is quite substantial. The detergent draw did seem a bit on the flimsy side though.

The new Aqualits has new curvy paddles with a rectangular base and has "Titanium" embossed on the back.

I've been looking at the new range and the manuals, so it's only the aqualtis with the new drum and paddles, 71l capacity. The ultimas are the same size as last year, being 62l and the aquarius+ and aquarius are the same too, being 52l.

Dedicated steam generator, now that's interesting! I've been looking at cycle times in the new aqualtis, they seem pretty long on comparison to my LG, cottons 40oc, 3 hours and 20mins! On the whole, they look much nicer than before and i'm quite impressed with them :)

New Vented dryers

I love the look of those new Hotpoint Aquarius+ Vented Tumble dryers with 8KG, it says EcoTech as well-wondering why as it is still C Energy, however it could be the new load capacity or they have adjusted drying times or something!
It does have a glass door BTW, yet further up this thread I am told they wont have a glass door!

Have been to Currys again!

hotpointfan's profile picture
I couldn't resist when I went to Curry's and saw the new machines. No Aqualtis though. No dryers either and the integrated model hasn't changed yet. My gran said that when her Bosch died she would replace it with one of these machines! There were the older models with sign's on top saying LAST ONE! I thoroughly enjoyed my visit and I saw that they have some new Beko's as well! I wouldn't really buy a Beko after the fridge - freezer fiasco, though my mum's friend has a Beko Washing Machine and my dad's friend a Beko Tumble Dryer. The new Beko on the link is not out yet, but the other new ones looked very similar. I also saw the Curry's Essential's washing machine which has an Ariston-style drum and Siemens door.

I think the massage lifters may not work well

I absolutely love the design of the wave paddles or (Massage as they call them), but I am wondering how well will they lift the load, especially small loads, as they don't look very high. If a small load is being washed, it wont lift the clothes, almost like the Candy ones.

The Titanium drum also looks good, and the print is nice, and it is great to know it is stronger, but Why is it that the Paddles are plastic? They say it is stronger, but plastic is cheap, and wont last as long as metal paddles.

The Aqualtis Dryer Drum & Paddles looks amazing though, I especially love how they still using the UK built drums too(I can tell from the back, even from that picture!)
Just wished the programmes on the dryers, were the same on the washers, I mean they have the cuddly toys, lingerie shirts & jeans on dryers, yet don't on the washers?

Wished they had the brochures-& Dryer Manuals ready, Though I suspect the washer-dryers and the remaining washers & Dryers and pre-haps dishwashers fridges aren't launching until September, so they wont launch brochures until there ready!

In the new Argos catalog, the Haus's have disappeared and have been replaced by ProAction, a brand that I thought made camping equipment.

Haus still exists.

Just because Argos isn't selling it any more, doesn't mean they no longer exist.
Argos doesn't sell many machines at all, your best to go to a proper appliance retailer like Comet, Euronics or go and shop on-line.

^Actually, Comet and Currys et al. have never sold Haus machines - they're all rebadged Haier machines branded especially for Argos.

I didn't mean Comet sell Haus, I meant if you think the Argos Catalogue has the best choice of appliances in, then think again.
If you search Haus you will probably find something On line.

We are finally getting our very first 2 models in tomorrow at long last. 1 Aquarius 1200 & 1 Aquarius+ 1400. Now all i have to do is get used to the awful model numbers that Indesit have put on them. Pics & my detailed report on them coming soon.

i love these aqualtis washers, if i had designed these washers i would of added a doorlight, large power jet spray like they have on whirlpool dreamspace washers & auto dose function for liquid and powder detergent this would be an ultimate washer

the currys essential drum is a reincarnation of the old Hotpoint drum before Indesit takeover.... the beko is a computer generated image as they havnt an offical photo of the machine for the website yet.... i love the new hotpoint styling but i will miss the Ariston Door.

Dave,

The top spec aqualtis had drum illumination a few years back. To me a total waste of time, as for power jet Indesit company have never done this, well i think not in any of there machines. But this feature was good to watch in Electrolux Zanussi & Candy-Hoover & Beko machines but pointless to me in wash performance.

Powerjets reduce rinse performance, and don't really assist on cleaning, all they do is create suds and help faster soaking.
