Description
The Hotpoint BI WMHG 71483 UK N is a fully integrated 7kg washing machine designed to disappear behind your kitchen cabinet door — and then quietly get on with the job. The inverter motor runs at just 46dB during the wash cycle, the 1400rpm spin removes more water than lower-speed alternatives, and A-class washing performance means it cleans properly rather than just going through the motions. Backed by a 10-year parts guarantee, this is a machine built to last.

⚠️ Professional installation recommended. Fully integrated installation requires fitting behind a kitchen cabinet door. Dimensions 815 × 595 × 545mm fit standard 60cm integrated spaces. The machine weighs 66.5kg — careful handling and correct plumbing and electrical connections are essential.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does 'fully integrated' mean?
A fully integrated washing machine is designed to be installed behind a kitchen cabinet door, so the machine itself is completely hidden. Only the cabinet door is visible when closed, giving a seamless, built-in appearance. The cabinet door is attached to the machine door using a hinge kit (typically supplied with the cabinet). This is different from a 'semi-integrated' machine where the control panel remains visible.
What is an inverter motor and why does it matter?
An inverter motor uses a different drive mechanism to a conventional motor — it has fewer moving parts, which means less friction, less noise, less vibration, and a longer lifespan. It is also more energy-efficient. The inverter motor is the primary reason Hotpoint can offer a 10-year parts guarantee on this machine.
What is the energy rating?
The BI WMHG 71483 UK N has an energy rating of D on the current EU A–G scale (introduced in 2021). Note that the old A+++ scale is no longer used — D on the new scale is broadly equivalent to A++ on the old scale. Energy consumption is 0.822 kWh per cycle.
How quiet is it?
The machine runs at 46dB during the wash cycle — quieter than a normal conversation — and 72dB during spinning, which is comparable to a vacuum cleaner but only during the short spin phase. This makes it well-suited to open-plan kitchen-living spaces.
Will it fit a standard integrated space?
Yes — at 815 × 595 × 545mm (H × W × D), it fits standard 60cm integrated appliance spaces. Always verify your cabinet dimensions and allow clearance for plumbing and electrical connections at the rear before ordering.
What does the 10-year parts guarantee cover?
The 10-year parts guarantee covers all mechanical and electrical components of the machine for 10 years from the date of purchase. Labour is covered for the first year only. The guarantee is provided by Hotpoint and must be registered after purchase. Terms and conditions apply.
Is professional installation required?
Professional installation is strongly recommended. Integrated appliances require correct cabinet fitting, plumbing connections, and electrical connections. The machine weighs 66.5kg and requires careful handling. Incorrect installation may affect performance and could invalidate the guarantee.
Can I order if the item shows as out of stock?
Yes — we can usually order this item on request. Please contact us on 01603 381095 or email customerservice@bubblegumbathrooms.co.uk to check availability and lead times before ordering.
