With a generous 12kg drum and a stylish grey finish, this Hotpoint Fabric Care washing machine is a brilliant match for bigger households.
Combining performance with protection, Fabric Care's low-friction wash keeps your favourite outfits looking their best, wash after wash. And with ColourCare's low-temperature wash, fabrics stay bold and bright for longer.
Whether you’re dealing with mucky kids’ clothes or pet hair on towels, the PetHairCare cycle lifts fur with a prewash and extra rinse that’s gentle on fabrics. You’ll also benefit from the Anti-Stain setting, which removes 24 of the most common household stains. And if you’re pressed for time, Full Load 45’ washes a whole load in just 45 minutes. For smaller loads, SteamCare revives garments quickly and helps cut back on ironing.
