Well as AW is closing tonight I thought I`d better show you my latest pickup, this is the other Darren in Lincoln (SlowSpinSpeed) confsuing I know, it was down this way and its with me until I visit...This is the 1st of the revamped models by the new Hotpoint In-House designers, led by OLiver Hill, a genius in his work, all the funky Hotpoint styling came from this man & his team... This machine has 7lb washload, with 3kw heater, thermostat linked timer, so "Set & Forget" controls...the spinner has an aluminium can & spins at 3,100 rpm the fastest on the market..it even has the original plug with a built in switch on it... |

That stern commanding stare of Oliver Hill is to prepare us for the immanent Wrath of Robert. So you drain the wash tub using the filter flo and you drain the spinner with the skinny guy that wraps up in the back, but does this beauty spin rinse or not? Are Hoover and Hotpoint still making TT's in UK/Euro ? By the way, it was supposed to be Don in the Spanker, but after that Apex taunt, you deserved it anyway. Cheers!!! Can't wait to read the article later this afternoon with tea, and your stainless steel TT in the other forum is gorgeous. Thanks for the treats, and the spankings are with feathers. |

Hoover and indeed most other twin tubs sold in Europe/UK offered various tongs one could use to grip and lift hot laundry over to the spin tub. Again, this is a hold over from the old copper and dolly stick days of doing wash, when either a large pole or some sort of tong like thing would be used to fish out and remove laundry from the boiling pot. You did'nt think "Her Indoors" reached into a boiling pot of water and fetched out laundry, did you? When using my twin tub, always wear those long "rubber" gloves to protect my hands from hot water and such. One day had to run to answer the door whilst twin tubbing, and a gf commented "What are you up to? Helping a cow deliver her calf?" L. |

Even funnier when one is in a high-rise in Manhattan! The only cows to be seen in that area are suburbanites coming in for the holdays to shop! Ducks and runs! And before anyone has a hissy-fit, Manhattanites do a lot more walking. You do the math. *LOL* I'm getting "secretarial-spread" now that I am a suburabanite too! |

Isn't the font on the console similar to Hoover's late sixties/early seventies UK one, all squared up? Wonder who did it first? |
