Looks the part and drys…

Since receiving the AEG T7DBG842R Tumble Dryer it has gone straight into service. With the weather turning for the worst an efficient way to dry clothes and bedding is a must for families during cold and wet months. Three weeks of usage and these are our thoughts.
The AEG has replaced a 14 year old vented tumble dryer which was still hanging on in there but likely not as efficient as it used to be. Once unpacked the AEG looks the part, with its sleek styling, silver trim around the door with large window and large LED display. It made our old tumble dryer look basic, just a white box. Even our current washing machine which is only a couple of years old, look dated next to the AEG.
There are plenty of programmes and drying options. We have not yet needed to use all of them but have found the mixed setting doesn’t dry the clothes completely, some items are still a little damp. That said our go to setting on our previous tumble dryer the cotton setting is brilliant on this AEG model. We are able to dry towels straight from the washing machine and they come out bone dry and ready to put away.
The large 8kg drying capacity is ideal for family use allowing us to get more dry in less time. The filter is easy to access and clean, and the large 5+ litre water tank will store enough removed water for well over 15 loads. We roughly get half a pint of water on each load.
We have found the tumble dryer very easy to use and as quiet as a turning drum can be. There is a very low pitch buzzing sound, which I have captured in a video. It’s only noticeable when you are up close to the dryer. The large LCD indicates cycle times and counts down to the finish, providing clear feedback during its operation. We never had this on our previous dryer, so no more guessing when it’s going to finish, we now get a pleasant tune.
Overall we are very happy with our purchase. It is the most we have paid for a tumble dryer, it feels like it’s built to last and if we get 10+ years of use out of it we will be happy. Based on our first few weeks of use we would highly recommend this tumble dryer for family usage.
