Wow! Looks so stylish with the chrome door, this is my favourite of the 18- series Hotpoints, I prefer it to the purple liberators! :D Matt | ||

and the insides - in really good condition. Returning to your 18580 Bjorn... pleased that you finally managed to get the machine down to you, after the trauma with couriers. May it provide you with hours of fun, vintage hotpoint style. Cheers Paul

Throwing our other 18 series in for good measure. The 18680 will scrub up nicely and shine like new again. Had worse restorations than that aint we P lol, Just need to get our hands on the Purple Variable Liberator 1848 we know when the current owner has finished with it and we should have a fabulous set of them.

Hi all Great to see another one of these in use. I think I prefer the door on yours compared to mine. I've always been a fan of chrome doors. During the big freeze my Hottie was wheeled inside and used as our main machine. I must say I love it! (BTW the other machines were drained to prevent freeze damage). I prefer to let it heat from cold it then does a nice long wash. I also might be able to date it more closely. On the synthetics wash it did not do the cool down phase which puts this machine at an earlier date. However, I will need to check the brochure. So Bjorn any idea of dating your machine? Unfortunately mine had the back replaced so the label is wrong. Mine has three stablizing legs. I love the simple rinsing, although prefer to keep the interim spins down. I find the fast burst, although fun, causes more suds. I can see why they went for the 2 short spins later. BTW good luck to whomever gets the wonderful Hottie Top loader in Leamington. A great machine but too far for me. Rob | ||
