[access-uk] Re: washing machines

Hi David.

We have a washing machine such as you describe, its the Hotpoint model WF541 and you can get it in a variety of colors or for a little more a brushed stainless steel. It does have a digital control panel in line with the majority of machines on the market these days, but programs, temperature and spin speed are all adjusted by a rotary dial which clicks round for each selectable function. We had ours brailed up as we have no sight whatever, but I do believe that Hotpoint can also provide a high visibility panel with well contrasting large print icons and text.

All the best and good luck.

Hi

I know this comes up regularly, but I am looking for a fairly basic washing machine which is V.I. friendly. I do not need loads of programs, just a no
frills washer, not a dryer.

I do not particularly need braille markings. Something with push buttons or
clickable dials would do.

any recommendations on current makes or models would be appreciated.
