Gosh, I thought washable shoes were supposed to be washed in cool water. |

Drop a dime in the box play a song about new orleans, COLD BEER, HOT LIGHTS, MY SWEET ROMANTIC TEENAGE NIGHTS! (Scenes From an Italian Restaurant - Billy Joel) somehow them lyrics sum up my love for these machines. How this machine made my year when we got it! I spent every opportunity to use and watch it on my days off etc. I was 18 when we got it and i fell in love the minute I saw it installed. I didnt even know we were getting it! the Hoover previous just died and this was got in a flash whilst I was at work! My mum had the original hotpoint Version of this machine 2002 -2006. Its first 2 years were Abuse with a capaital A. My Nan wasnt very well and Mum did her washing. It coped really well with all this DAILY 1 cycle B 95*c Whites + Prewash 6 days a week for my chef whites - perfection if I ever saw it with 200 ml Persil NB Powder. 2 x cycle D 60 Coloureds 1 x cycle E 40 cottons for the family laundry then on my day or days if i was lucky! it did this weekly on top of the above. cycle K woolens for jumpers cycle G Acrylics for t shirts and the such Cycle E for my jeans socks and boxers. Never missed a beat and I think the last 2 years of it life it only died thru boredom going back to 6 washes a week. The only machine shes ever had capable of perfection in all areas. Reasonable wash times with great performance. Good Rinsing on Super, and a reasonable spin. only gripe was they never quite made the famous Hotpoint Noise, same motor just sounded somewhat different in these. dunno why. :-( And her only (Real) Hotpoint machine to date! Sorry it messed the ol converses up, did you put them on a 95*c wash? Trainers (sneakers) i always wash on the 40 synthetics programme which will be Cycle G. If they are particularly muddy wash them first on Pre Wash cycle A then swizz the Dial to G after its finished Prewash. Any more advice onb how to get the best results in one of these drop me a line. more than happy to help! Nick P.S also very curious as to how one of these got in the states! N |
