Patience liberatordeluxe - as far as this thread is concerned, you will have to wait another 20 years before I reach the world of the 95 :-) Am sure you will find one eventually - just keep looking! Paul |

Hi Chris. Glad you are enjoying the thread - I remember you mentioning that your gran had a 1502. If you have got time to scan the manual, I would love a copy! Paul |

..."load switch" and "powder control" mean? I guess they've got only one compartment for the detergent and no for softeners? |

finally some colour photos of a first generation machine. The lack of colour pictures of the above models is simply down to the fact that few if any seem to exist. They are very rare machines... |

Great thread! think the 1851 to the 1828 was the drop of Crouzet timers to AKO, and the motor was changed from DC (round plug) to AC six way rectangular plug HTH Andy |

When the 1851/03 arrived on the scene with its newly restyled fascia, the same changes were implemented on the 1701/01 dryer as well. Hence we have version 2 Model 1701/01... |

Oh yes I do, since 1995, and my 1701 since 93, unfortunately I have never gotten around to getting a respray on them both. Always been fascinated with the purple, and it carried on from there ;-) lol |

I know this will probably get answered later on, but methinks there was a grey 95 series era machine badged as an English Electric, or it could have been Morphy Richards? Rocker switches come to mind as well as one surfaced on eBay a few months back!
Scouring everywhere for a 95 series/Liberator Hotpoint, all these photos are making me want one! But, even if one surfaced and I managed to get it, storage would be a problem as the garage has started leaking! Learnt some fascinating stuff so far, and theres 20 more years to go yet! Best Wishes hotpointfan |

This evenings machines take us through to May 1979. The following month would see a new series of restyled machines released for sale and the abandonment of the name 'LIBERATOR'. to be continued! Paul |

Excellent thread Paul and all that have contributed, Hotpoint was the workhorse of British laundry from the first badged Maytag (Model E) gyrator machines, to the BTH cabinet models, its great to see the progression through the eyes of British Industrial Designers and Engineers...and also those field engineers, Thank You Hotpoint.
Heres my 1501 , the blue fascia definately makes it!! |

The early tubs where a lighter shade of grey vitreous enamel, and dont forget it had an outer vitreous enamel tub too, unlike the later models with plastic outer tubs.

Hi Mike, So the 1509/10 had a viterous outer? Wonder if it was something like the plastic was being trialed on the 1504. Andy |

Thank you so much for this very interesting, fascinating and entertaining thread. Hotpoint automatic's were quite rare in our neighbourhood when I was growing up. A primary school friend had the 1509/10 top loader and my mum's best friend had the 1828/02. My sisters primary school friend had a 1600 in her house though unfortunately I never got to see it in action. I think it was the later 1830 model as I am pretty sure it had a stainless steel drum.
I inherited a 1701 dryer when I moved into a flat in Aberdeen. that was in 1992 and I had it up until I moved to Edinburgh in 1999 and it was still going strong. I have quite a soft spot for Hotpoint machines as the design was quite unlike other automatics, self explanatory simple to use controls that felt solid and well built. Thank you again for this wonderful thread. |

Back panel off, not much has changed since the 1850, what has changed, the suspension differs, the early machines had 3 dampers and no top springs, now 2 dampers and a pair of top springs. Motor control has also evolved from the D.C. thyristor to the A.C. triac control allowing the faster variable spin speeds.

Timers have also evolved on the inside the first having the Crouzet unit (fitted to my 1851/03) which is very quite in operation then the AKO timer came along with it’s unique sound.

Thank you Paul for a fantastic thread; I have been glued to the computer, thank you, thank you.
Model 18680 in bronze??????? HELP!!!!!!!!! There is no mention of this in issue No6 Aug85 service information, its only remark is that it has brown controls with slight appearance changes to the 18580 and introduced in Sep82. Perhaps the fascia sticker above is a cheap replacement spare instead of reproducing the more expensive metal original!! |

My Grandma had a 18371 and matching dryer from new until 2010. The washer had the motor brushes replaced a few times and I think she said the belt was replaced too. Other than that, it had no repairs. The dryer had no repairs at all. Both served a family of 8 and then later served my Grandma, Aunt and 2 god awful cousins. Sadly, they were both chucked in a skip when my Grandma got a new kitchen fitted in 2010 and replaced with an integrated Candy washer/dryer. I got no say in this, I might add. Stupid woman.

Thanks again for this great thread Paul. Here is a pic of my sisters 1762 dryer she got off gumtree a few months ago. Unfortunately the belt has broken now and I suspect the bearings will need replacing. I am waiting for her to order the parts and I will hopefully be able to get it up and running again.

Seems to have changed dramatically over the few decades it spanned. From very yellow during New Gen production to a more Almond colour during the Next Gen era and finishing up very faint during the WM's. Lovely thread. Shame I've nothing to add to it. James. |

Thank you Paul For the hours of work in the production of this thread, you’re fantastic in-depth knowledge and dedication to Hotpoint is out of this world. I have been glued to the computer every day; I am determined to find another 18 series machine to add to the numbers of surviving machines in our collective.

Thanks for posting the diagrams. Love the video too, nothing like that Hotpoint growl and the whine when it kicks into spin. I really miss my 95450. I bought it as a recon machine in 1993/4. It really was a great machine, washed really well, it was quick and span surprisingly well for an 800rpm machine.
An ex had a 9900A, to this day it is still one of the best washer dryers I have ever used. Dried very quickly without baking the load to death. A big thanks again to Paul for all the amazing info he has provided on this thread. |

Hello Paul, thanks for adding to this great thread, and I have a small question to ask, if you can answer.
I am soon to acquire a Hotpoint 1731, from my mum's friend, who inherited recently from her grandmother in law. It's not had much use, and as she has small children and lot's of washing, the 1731 isn't the most convenient, so she's replaced it, and passing it on to me soon. It works, apart from the timer not working so you have to keep an eye on it or it just keeps going, as she discovered when she accidentally on overnight once! Anyway, onto the question. On the picture of the 1731 you posted on this thread - Reply 121 - shows a dryer with coloured bits in traditional Liberator fashion, however this one appears to be more browny/bronze on the fascia and the dial is brown instead of purple, so is it a slightly later version? Thanks - not just for the impending advice which I know will be EXCELLENT as per usual, but for the whole inflo thread! Many thanks! Jacob |

Hi guys, I have a question for you Hotpoint fans, regarding Hotpoint New Generation (95620). It's been so long ago now, that I have forgotten how some of the wash phases went.
I have provided you a link of the Hotpoint 9513 doing a synthetic cycle no "6". Ten minutes in to the video, it does a stepped cool down/1st rinse combo. Aka it intakes water whilst it drains and rinses. Did all Hotpoint's including the (95620) do that to? I simply cannot can't remember if mother's machine did that, as she never used the synthetic cycles so much. Thanks in advance, Hass CLICK HERE TO GO TO thelaundrylab's LINK |

Hey Paul, great pictures of the curry's exclusive, for the Hotpoint Liberator range. I'm confused to what you mean by the Hotpoint 18872 it being the only image of that model? Was there more than one...?
Not to worry, I'm sure my question will be answered soon enough. In the mean time I shall wait with anticipation lol. Glad it brought back memories for you Paul, Pedro. Oh... guessing the Hotpoint 9513 made during 'New Generation' series...? Thought I'd attach and indclude the image of Hotpoint's New Genartaion Factory where all the New Generations series started. Would love to see what was included in this brochure for Hotpoint's workers. They made it sound so exciting. Hass :) |
