To say I am not happy with your comment above is an understatement.

I do NOT work for Hotpoint, Indesit or Whirlpool brands never have never will. Now we have that cleared up and out of the way. I will continue.

The businesses I have worked for over the years have been nationwide multiples and independents. We have been a stockist of Hotpoint etc appliances for over fourty years and in that time they like others have had recalls and other issues however I can honestly say I have not had a “rust” issue on any of their cookers for as long as I can remember.

I appreciate as the consumer you are not happy with the product but there is no need to accuse me of defending poor build and workmanship, I have always told things as they are over 7000 posts will verify this. If you were my customer I would fight your corner vigourously. I may not win but I always try to find a solution.

Moving forward you could try trading standards, the retailer it was purchased from ( which was)?

I would not go in with all guns firing as that only puts up walls.

Hi Don……You ‘protest too much’………my experience has been very, very poor with Hotpoint brand and ‘Whirlpool’ too. Cheap shoddy goods and shoddy customer services too…..and understatement to be shouted aloud.

Hi Dave, well said and it’s time we consumers give our resentment an air and not subscribe to these main stream manufacturers pumping out rubbish goods designed to end service life after legal warranty. avoid them and don’t buy ‘Ho[point’ ….until it’s culture changes!!!”

Have edited the unnacceptable language and replaced it with something a little less abrasive.
This is a public forum after all with young and old viewing.

These posts now have their own thread.

Don: Works for Hotpoint, trained to defend poor build & workmanship, no one expects cooker to rust up after 2 years and it’s indefensible to argue to the contrary. Never. never again will I choose Hotpoint……….or associated brands.
