What are the highlights of AEG devices? How to choose the right model from a variety of offers? We will deal with these questions in order. To facilitate the selection task, we compiled ratings of the most interesting positions among the budget class models, the middle and premium segments, as well as the options with vertical loading.

Features of washing machines from AEG

Often, potential buyers when choosing household appliances are faced with expensive models of the unfamiliar brand AEG.

The fact is that in the mid-90s this company became the property of a well-known Swedish manufacturerElectrolux, which under the name AEG continues to offer potential buyers all over the world only high-level home appliances.

This is how the AEG cars of the updated line look, so no one will turn their tongue to say that they are ugly or do not meet modern requirements

Given the expensive price, it becomes clear why until recently buyers were not very familiar with products manufactured under this brand.

Today, Electrolux called AEG provides the opportunity pick up a washing machine in any price category. But you should know that in each of the segments the models of this brand are among the most expensive.

The reason for all the decent quality of each assembled unit.That is, even units related to the initial level are not an economical option, as they have sufficient capabilities for high-quality washing and a long service life.

Today, the line of AEG machines is traditionally wide and has almost 5 dozen models. This allows you to satisfy the needs of different categories of potential buyers.

AEG washing machines
AEG brand washing machines are among the best-selling in Europe, although the concern of the same name no longer exists.

Although the manufacturer has more than enough variety, it’s pretty easy to understand the technical characteristics of the products. Since everything related to any price category, units have a set of basic functions.

They differ only in some important or secondary features that can make any model more or less the best option for the buyer.

For example, the considered budget models L61260 and L71260 have the same dimensions, a number of other main characteristics: loading, spin speed, control, and others. But the first washer has an A ++ power consumption class, and the second is more economical and relates to A +++.

As a result, a more gluttonous car costs 7-8% cheaper, but during operation the owner's expenses will be significantly higher.

AEG L73060SL
Model AEG L73060SL is a typical representative of the initial class, but even it is able to satisfy the needs of most consumers

And there are many such nuances, so a potential buyer should decide on the necessary characteristics in advance and choose the best option.

Since all models that have a demanded front load are budget or belong to products of medium and high price categories, you should familiarize yourself with the features of each of them. This will help make a choice based on knowledge of the subject.

Budget Washbasins from AEG

Even low-cost AEG machines are distinguished by functionality, sufficient reliability and aesthetic qualities. This is evidenced by traditionally high performance.

Which include:

  1. Maximum load - all budget cars of this brand are capable of washing 6, and most often 6.5 kg of things at a time, and this figure is achieved with a fairly compact size.
  2. Maximum spin speed - even the most affordable AEG units perform this operation at a speed of 1200-1400 rpm. This is a good indicator, since inexpensive cars of other companies do not exceed these figures, and often their speed reaches only 1000, or even 800 rpm.
  3. Control system - All inexpensive AEG machines are quite intelligent, able to control and adjust the washing process.

You should be aware that in this price category, load indicators of 6.5 kg are among the best, and many manufacturers offer units that can only accept 5-5.5 kg, and in some cases the owner will be able to load no more than 4 kg.

A feature of this technique is its compact size - they do not exceed the dimensions of washing units produced by competing manufacturers. That allows them to be installed even in small bathrooms, kitchens and even corridors.

Control Panel
In many cases, the AEG control panels are not Russified, but this does not cause irritation for users, since all the notation is intuitive

All manufactured machines have high aesthetic qualities, that is, even inexpensive models traditionally have a stylish and attractive appearance - this is the policy of the manufacturer.

In addition, the available units produced under this brand are distinguished by a rather large number of pre-installed programs.

Usually there are not less than 14, and in some cases 15-16, which allows the machine to cope, and with high quality, with washing various fabrics, including cotton, synthetics, wool, all kinds of delicate.

Additionally, the owner will be able to use a number of special programs that significantly expand the functionality of the machines.

Among the proposed types of washing:

  • quick - at AEG it lasts 20 minutes and is intended for washing lightly soiled things;
  • intense - used for thorough cleaning of heavily soiled products.

Additionally, a person will be able to influence the temperature of an already selected program, the number of rinses. As well as electronics, you can easily and quickly adjust the spin speed.

Function will be useful"Easy ironing», The activation of which will lead to a decrease in the speed of rotation of the drum. After that, less wrinkles are formed and things will be easier to iron, in addition, time and energy are saved.

AEG LAVAMAT L7FE86604
With high reliability, performance and excellent washing quality, all AEGs are highly aesthetically pleasing and easy to operate.

Traditionally, the washing machines produced by this brand are characterized by the highest efficiency, washing class - AND.

The quality of the spin may be different - the most affordable units perform this procedure for evaluation well, that is, they correspond to level C, which is quite acceptable. Products more expensive are able to drain water at the highest level, therefore, belong to classes B and A.

In all models, electronics, when an imbalance is detected, makes appropriate adjustments. This is done to evenly distribute the laundry before spinning, which improves the quality of such a procedure.

In addition, the manufacturer provided for the presence in the entire line of machines foam sensors and if it starts to form, then the washing will be stopped. This will prevent breakage, other troubles.

AEG text display
The controls can be push-button, touch, there is always an informative display, which makes manipulating the machine simple, understandable

All inexpensive AEGs are equipped with leakage protection, but it can be different. For example, the cheapest cars usually have only partial protection, while the more expensive ones have full protection. In addition, two similar models may have differences, so the potential buyer should be careful about this point.

An interested person should pay attention to engine technology. Most of them are inverter, so they are distinguished by quiet operation and reliability. No wonder the manufacturer provides an impressive ten-year warranty.

All washing machines are equipped informative displays, which makes management and control more convenient. Their sizes are significantly different and the optimal one should be chosen for yourself. Below we will consider the 5 most popular budget models.

Model # 1 - Functional AEG AMS7500I

AMS7500I is one of the most budget, though not the latest models. On her example, you can figure out what a person gets by paying money. This washing machine weighing 62.4 kg has the usual dimensions for this class, that is, with an 85-centimeter height 60 cm wide and a depth of 48 cm, which is slightly more than the usual 45 cm.

Due to the modest dimensions, the owners of the AMS7500I washing machine will not take away too much space. In addition, if necessary, you can choose a narrower version of the more expensive models.

The appearance is not catchy and memorable, but the aesthetic qualities are sufficient to fit into almost any interior of the bathroom or kitchen.

The product is distinguished by ergonomics, therefore it’s convenient to operate the machine or obtain the necessary information, as well as load / unload things. Of which, this budget AEG is capable of washing up to 6.2 kg per cycle, which is an excellent result for its class.

Users mark quiet work, good feature set and affordable price. Among the negative points can be noted a noisy fence and water discharge. Overall, this is a great option at an affordable price.

Model # 2 - Complete Protection in the AEG AMS7000U

Most low-priced models from AEG have the same basic features as the AMS7000U, but there are a number of exceptions.

AMS7000U has full leakage protection, implemented a child protection function.And its electronics are a little more intelligent, as the mode for delicate fabrics and the non-spin washing mode are added, which allows you to cope well even with washing curtains.

The display should always be given special attention, since it can be of various sizes, and therefore not always optimal. This model is equipped with a large display, and its design has a number of additional decorative elements that refresh the look.

Users like lack of vibrations during the work, convenient sunroof, easy operation. At the same time, the cost of the AMS7000U is slightly higher than similar models from other manufacturers.

Among the shortcomings, an inconveniently realized system for draining water from a filter is noted.

Model # 3 - roomy AEG L6FBI48S

L6FBI48S with dimensions similar to the previous units will be able to wash almost a third of things per cycle - up to 8 kg. What makes it the best option for families with several children.

In addition, the L6FBI48S is better pressed out, therefore it belongs to class B rather than C, as the previously mentioned models. The drum during such a procedure can rotate at a decent speed of up to 1400 rpm./min., Which allows you to qualitatively solve almost any problem. And if there are none, then this function can simply be turned off.

The manufacturer has provided a fairly large number of various programs, so the owner will not need to think about how to wash frequently used cotton, synthetics, jeans, remove stains. The same applies to preventing creasing, double rinsing.

Of the additional features in the car is present complete leakage protection, imbalance control. And she also has low noise - only 50 dB.

Model # 4 - Cost-Effective AEG L574270SL

AEG L574270SL belongs to the category of the most economical models. The class of its energy consumption corresponds A +++. This means that the machine will spend 0.12 kWh / kg.

A number of other useful functions are also provided - preliminary, economical and express washing. Moreover, in any of the programs a person will be able to change the temperature value.

In stockimbalance and foam control, and wash delay timer. After executing the program, the washing machine will signal this.

Although the AEG L574270SL is entry-level, but its noise level is very low (49 dB), which does not violate the comfort of the owners during operation.

Perhaps the only drawback of the AEG washing machine is its cost, which is almost one and a half times more than similar models from its segment.

As a conclusion, we can point out that the presented AEG model has sufficient functionality, performance and, although it does not use any innovative solutions, it is quite capable of satisfying the needs of most users.

The AEG display is an important structural element, since it is highly informative, for example, the washing time is indicated, which is not always the case.

The only drawback is the considerable cost of the AEG L88489FL - it will have to pay a lot more money for it than for the most affordable models of most other well-known manufacturers.

Middle and expensive class

The equipment of the manufacturer presented, relating to the middle and expensive price segments, has a familiar set of functions from budget models.

But, the higher the cost of the washing machine, the more innovative or simply advanced solutions are implemented in it.

Model AEG L7FBE48
It looks like washing machines belonging to the middle and high price category, but AEG does not indulge in the variety of colors - their machines are almost always white

Since the control system has a high level of intelligence, therefore, control over the quality of washing and process optimization are more effective. In addition, among the preinstalled programs there are many new, but already liked by users options.

For example, non-budget AEG units are able to cope perfectly with washing:

  1. Sportswear - people leading an active lifestyle have long noticed that their running t-shirts, thermal underwear, and other equipment are difficult to clean thoroughly of pollution, smell without loading the fabric fibers, which led to premature wear. With the help of a specialized program, this has ceased to be a problem.
  2. Duvets - a few years ago, not a single machine could cope with a similar task, now all AEG models related to the expensive segment are equipped with the necessary function.

Units corresponding to the specified classes are also suitable for allergic users. They are equipped with a function"Anti-allergy", which consists in the most thorough rinsing.

To make the wash better, all expensive units of this brand are equipped with a system of residual use of powder, which further optimizes the washing procedure.

A potential buyer can have no doubt that among the machines belonging to the most expensive segment, washing and subsequent spinning are performed only at the highest level (class A), that is, without any compromises. The same applies to energy consumption - all expensive units belong to the class A +++.

The spin speed can reach 1400-1600 revolutions per minute, which allows you to effectively remove moisture in any case.

Loading hatch
The choice of hatch must be approached carefully, since similar cars are produced, but with a different structural element

The performance of units belonging to the higher price categories is always in the range of 6.5-10 kg. The most expensive washing machines manufactured under the AEG brand are equipped with drying function.

They have protection against all known types of leaks, which makes work safer. A mandatory function is protection from children, so little helpers will not be able to make their own adjustments to the operation of the machine.

    Luxurious machine! I also did not look at them before because of the high price, but when it came time to buy, they discounted it in the store, they said that the lineup is changing, these are leftovers. In general, she got me at the price of LG. For 5 years it has been serving faithfully.
    As for the modes: 20 minutes of washing, of course, is great, but then you must also use the rinse mode, and this is + 30 minutes.
    She has a large load, yes, but do not abuse it - heavy things are usually linen, if you put a lot of it, it is distributed unevenly on the drum and the machine “chatter”, and then the bearing starts to whistle.

  2. Nikita

    At home, it is the “AEG” washing machine. When you bought it a few years ago, the main criterion was precisely the reliability of the brand manufacturer. And the wife watched the functions and washing modes, because she had to deal with it every day, the price also didn’t really worry. A good thing cannot be cheap. Well, and still looked to be exactly A +++. So, during the operation of the machine proved to be reliable and reliable. At the same time, even my wife is satisfied with the washing quality, and she is very scrupulous in this matter. So, if you need to buy a new one, then definitely - “AEG”.

  3. Vladimir

    Now their prices have soared 2-3 times. And if earlier it was possible to buy thousands for 20-23, then now it is from 40 and above.

    We used to have Samsung before, and then bought AEG, so AEG is just a lot better. Washes laundry of any pollution, and you get it almost dry.
