Hi,
I stumbled across this wonderful forum while researching for new appliances and really appreciate the content and advice being shared here.
I am a new member and soon to be moving into a house where I would need to buy a washing machine and fridge freezer.
My requirements:
Washing machine: 8kg 1400 rpm freestanding, must have delay start and some quick cycles for baby clothes. Usage would be 2 – 3 cycles per week.
Came across the Hotpoint S line model on an employee discount portal where I but it directly from Hotpoint for about £265. It’s hard to ignore at that price and I wanted to check if it’s worth the purchase or am I better off spending few hundred more and avoid Hotpoint completely.
Are there any other whirlpool model that are worthy as that’s another brand I can get a good discount on?Re: Hotpoint RPD8457J Ultima S Line
Hi
Rather spend a little more and go for something like the Bosch WAQ283S1 much better machine. Or if you can go a little higher then the Miele WDA101 which is better again. This does come at a cost though as very little info is shared with the independent sector which means Miele own service engineers would need to visit!!
The reason Whirlpool is also offered through the portal is that they now own Hotpoint. The Whirlpool machines are slightly better IMO but not as good as the Bosch.
HTH 🙂

Hi Don,
Many thanks for the quick reply!
I suppose I should rule out Hotpoint Fridge freezer as well? Getting 60 cm wide 201 cms tall freestanding 50/50 for about 360. I need approx 350L capacity in 60 cm width.

Hi
Hotpoint refrigeration is a different story. With what’s currently out there it’s one of the best ones. Liebherr would be the one to go for if budget will stretch that far.
