Hotpoint Supermatic De Luxe 9414W Twin Tub Washing Machine - Colourfast Cotton 60 (Warm) (1/2)

[@undertheradar001]

My dad got one of these new for my step mum in 1976 and they had it for 30 years. My stepmom would not swap it for an automatic and swore by it. She could run through the entire wash quicker than a 30 min load would take in an automatic; and cleaner than any automatic whites wash. No washing machine nowadays would give you service for that long. Nice to see the old favourite in action once again. Brings back fond childhood memories.

We had one in the 80s!. Couple of things I can remember is my mam used to use hot water from the house not rely on machine to heat up water. The washing powder went in on the filter also. And the spin.. First spin was to drain washin water then add cold water to spinner to rinse clothes properly. To drain there was specifice hose with machine to fit over the water flow and drain into the sink. Wow.. Some memories of Saturday morning coming back!

Wow my mum had one when spinning it moved about 10 foot across the room... Clothes were almost dry with the spinning

[@andyatkinson3279]

Oh what memories! That 3100 rpm spin speed, non faster!!! Less time in the tumble dryer, less electricity, less expense 👏👏

01:20 When that started up, strangely the noise was so relaxing

One of the best twin tubs makes ever mate, I won't mind have one in future. My Nanny used to have it plus my mate now got one👍

I would like to have those washer so badly in Germany 😍

[@deanpickersgill9794]

I still have one. My mother only ever truly believes a white garment/sheet/towel is really white is if it has been washed in "the proper washer".

[@colmcoleman6421]

did you find out what was wrong with the spinner and did you get it fixed

[@colmcoleman6421]

how do you know when the was has finished does it stop by itself or do you have to stand over it and time it

[@servisslimline]

It turns off itself

Where can I buy one?

[@thewashateriawandererzayne4376]

How long did the timelapse of the heater take?

[@servisslimline]

Can’t remember, over half hour I think by the time we realised it had tripped the electrics and we’d sorted it again

[@thewashateriawandererzayne4376]

servisslimline I think I had the same problem, can you tell me how you fixed it?

[@servisslimline]

The washateria wanderer Zayne turned out it was the extension lead we were using, yours might need a. New heater

[@thewashateriawandererzayne4376]

[@Peter-gv6vf]

Wow. Definitely something wrong with that spin, shouldnt whine like that and should empty the water way quicker. Should have a very distinctive noise and it doesnt. But good to see tho
