So I got to thinking as I'm looking at the current Hotpoint range with a view to buy and I thought I wonder how much longer they will run these range names?
Aquarius has been around 20years! Ultima a couple of years behind...what would they call them next? Then I thought about other range names which had been around for a few years, I immediately thought of Hoover with there "electron" range and AEG "Lavamat". Any more for any more? Darren |

Doesn't miss a trick :-p though I should be ashamed claiming to be a huge zanussi fan. to be fair I have been up since 7 and i'm knackered lol.
I unfortunately wouldn't buy a new Zanussi after the drastic quality cut they've made of late. I am a great fan of recent IndesitCompany offerings and I have been very happy with the 3 I've had lately. Having started my new job I've decided it's time to treat myself and I'm not quite financially sorted enough to go buy another LG. Currently weighing up the Ultima 1600 or the Aqualtis 1600. Can't decide!! Darren |

LOL well I am knocking on in now Liam, these late nights catch up with me :-p
I can certainly certify the comparison. My WT960 was awful in comparison to my Indesit IWE7145 & Aqualtis. I think the jetsystem's still maintain a little decency the basic model zanussi's are hideous especially that Thai made hash..I mean model. *Chokes on Coffee!* Yes I do like a big...drum. D x |

AEG Lavamat is indeed a long running name. I think the name Lavamat was used in the late 50's for the first time, so it's over 50 years old now.
V-Zug is using the type name Unimatic for it's commercial machines for a very long time too. They introduced the name in 1950 and they are still using it. So the name Unimatic has been used for 61 years now by V-Zug. |
