No I christened the WMA30N Concepta because of the radical redesign and christened the TDL30 Millenium because both machines were made in 2000. | ||

Certainly have their place in history, so well claimed! Like the names too. Did you know that the second generation WM, non first edition models eg WM61, 62, 63 and 64 etc were known as the 'Vogue' series. Roll on the photos. Paul | ||

To this much roomier drum... I like how Hotpoint considered every detail in the WMA models the way they colour coordinated the door seal with the machine. Zircon, Polar and Satin Aluminum machines having grey seals and Linen and Oyster having this natural colour.

The rest of the collection. The 9770 looks much more at home with this gang! :)

The "one" button is for washing one item. It was changed to "mini load" the following year as it would be less confusing. James. | ||

Lovely collection you have there! :)
I always did wonder why a relatives Aquarius WMA32 (still in use) was quieter than our Aquarius WMA58 (also still in use) with powerstream wash system which was a newer model. They sure are machines to be collected, my favourite has always been the WMA76 as it was a very flexible machine. I also loved how the Fast Wash took 26 minutes and heated to 35 degrees, good for a refreshing wash. Here's a picture I took yesterday of my relatives WMA32 whilst I was putting a few tea towels on cottons 60. Happy Washing :)

James...
What a lovely set! My grandparents had a WMA36N from 2002 until 2008, in Natural Linen. One of my friends has a WMA32P and my uncle has the same. I have no photo's of my grandparents or my friends but I visited my uncle around three weeks ago so i will scavenge it out from the bottom of the computers memory!

WOW! Your shed looks stunning! What can I say? I really love your collection but what happened to the WM22 and WM23?And yes, I can agree that the 9770 looks at home there:) And I don't think that the seal was meant to be that colour, but may be wrong. Chris

Wma76 actually have brushless motors. I was shocked to make this discovery when repairing one at work the other day. Wma66 don't however! George | ||
