We have had the machine just over 2 yrs and have the same problem of mildew buildup aroung the seal and in the detergent drawer. Hotpoint helpine have change number and we no go through to INDESIT who have said problem not covered in 5yr parts an labour warranty would have to pay £99 for labour and they would provide free seal - sooo nice of them. They had audacity to blame mildew buildup my use of liquid gel detergents (and liquid tabs) and have said there is nothing that can be done about this. Have always purchased hotpoint ish I ad known about this issue prior to purchase. From what I have read paying to replace seal will not help as problem will still be re-occuring - happy shopping
