This just arrived Saturday afternoon, delivered from Cincinnati. You may remember the Hotpoint Lady Executive posted for sale here posted the first week of July. It looks to be in very nice condition overall and sounds good. I'll do some preventative restore work on her before putting into regular service, check the outer tub, boot, clutch, etc. It was purported to have a leak but I've not had a chance to water test it yet.

Totally Cool! I've always liked the Lady Executive ad that rotates through the POD, but have certainly never seen one. I'm guessing this is late '60s, probably about the last gasp of real Hotpoint before it became GE-Lite. Thanks for posting! | ||

Awesome Find! I grew up with this washer and matching gas dryer for about 8 years. Dryer lasted longer than the washer. Fun washer and dryer pair. Great Sounds from the washer is what is in my memory. Fun! Brent | ||

Very Cool Mid 1970s GE Style Hotpoint Washer Greg what year is this machine exactly ?, the mid 1970s was about the last of the great styled washers and dryers in this country that were full of mechanical complexity. As we moved into the 1980s most of the really complex machines were gone but quality and longevity increased dramatically, which is what makes finding one of these over the top last of the complex wonders of laundry machines so rare. | ||

The Legendary Lady Executive 
Certain people like me go nuts every time the POD cycles by.
This is the one you can program to wake you up with the sweet sound of water spin-draining after the soak. Finally, someone has one. Perfect. Wondering if Jackie was the shipper. In my colorful memory, it's always lilac. And there's always hope you'll paint her in that hue ;'D You gave me the Mark XII, and now you have "THEE," only-one-known-to-exist, Hotpoint Lady. How cool is that?! | ||

So Much ...style and glitz! The adjustable soak - for hours - can you believe it? What a cool feature. Wonder what happened to that concept. Congratulations. John | ||

Hotpoint "Lady Executive" Clothes Washer..... In my own humble opinion, I think this one is from the early-mid 1970's if I am not mistaking... Cool Washer Nonetheless!!!! --Charles-- | ||

...and trailing behind here with the compliments....wow wow wow. Every time I see something that comes from another era, I can't believe they made such great looking machines.These deserve a great location to be seen - hope you enjoy them and ..waking up in the middle of the night to look at them, check to see they didn't walk out ....is normal. :-)
Congrats - beautiful machines. Phil | ||

That is one beautiful set! I am happy for you but green with envy! I am sure it won't take you long to have it running as nicely as it looks. Good luck and keep us posted. Sam | ||

I just love washer deliveries!!! Maybe someone should drop a box (not a bottle) of regular tide in the tub next to that fabulastic agitator to make it a really authentic delivery! | ||

WOW
I just found this thread and I couldn't believe what I'm seeing. Such an awesome and beautiful washer, like everyone is saying she looks to be in great condition, is it white or almond? congrats. Since I can't check her out in person I would absolutely love to see more pics and some videos. Wish I could run across a washer like this. Its a perfect machine but if it had that turquoise tub!!! Of course im a big fan of turquoise tubs, and agitators with their accessories Thanks for sharing!
