General Comments

Bought my Hotpoint on 02 04 07. Don't have the 1st and 2nd repair sheets but from memory repairs were to do with excessive noise on spin, imbalance of the drum so it hit the sides on 1600 spin and replacement of thermostat plus washing had what seemed to be black lines (oil?) when washed.

14 01 08 new thermostat fitted - all washing on dry came out overdried and badly creased and finally the weight in the top part of machine was adjusted so it no longer sounded as though it was going to take off.


12 03 08 new element fitted to repair lack of heat in dryer, think something had shut down as a safety measure.

23 04 08 f13 error showing on digital display which also flickers like mad no heat on dry cycle yet again. by this time I am now out of warranty and will have to pay for repair.

I have had a number of washing machines over the years two of which were hotpoint which performed perfectly. this one is a nightmare and i have wasted good money on it and it looks like i shall have to waste even more unless i have it removed and go and buy a new one. i seem to have had few if any consumer rights, certainly if i'd been well when it first went wrong i would have insisted on a refund - something i would advise anyone purchasing this machine to do. if it's too late and you have one perhaps a warranty would be a good idea.
