Watch the floor covering with new Hotpoints!

[Rograbbit]

Hi. Sold a few new Hotpoint washing machines recently that customers have chosen. Just a word of warning, the suspension leg bolts are almost flush with the rubber feet when screwed right in. The feet are quite thin. i’ve fitted on tiled floors so have been ok, but you can hear them occasionaly scrape on uneven floor as appliance is pushed back. Could be fun with lino! 😯

Re: Watch the floor covering with new Hotpoints!

bugs me that nearly every appliance I go to has the feet screwed hard in. assume that is the way they are delivered and installer/customer obviously does not bother reading the instructions. Have had many dishwashers sitting on their base with the legs dangling uselessly off the ground. Manufacturers dont help either as when supplied new, the feet are tighlty screwed in. How often have you reached under to lower the feet slightly and then find they are locked hard in meaning the machine needs to come out, tilt back to get some sort of tool on them to release them.
