I like the design of the British Hotpoint uprights of the 1980’s. Here’s Beko1987 putting together a Hotpoint Junior upright on YouTube - very interesting!

Though not as good as it used to be.

Were you able to ask by dad who is long deceased Hotpoint never made anything even halfway decent.

Their copy of the junior was, well, good enough.

I had such a Hotpoint as shown in one of the ads posted originally. It ran well but the lack of power was noticeable.

Gorgeous looking. Beautiful restoration.

My non-Air-Way Holy Grail is probably the Toshiba VC-A, a pre-WWII Japanese release of the GE Standard. After the war, Toshiba switched to the smaller VC-C model in the second picture.

Which is so easily to confuse with the model 89, the only real difference being the 89 is smaller as is the fan case shape View attachment 171201

Thank you for all your photos that showcase your awesome G-E collection and amazing restorations. Are you hoping to (or do you have) the entire fleet until the early '50s?

Weren't Swiveltops made in Brazil into the 1990s?
