Great appliance for a great price
4/5
Sleek and smart appliance that outshines previous dishwashers.
We've heard good things about AEG before but this is our first purchase. Competitive and reasonable price for the level of spec you buy. New satellite clean technology really does reach all the corners, and the air dry function to pop the door open means I never have to finish drying before unloading the dishes. It's cleaned the most stubborn dirt and stains in just one wash, with no pre washing by hand.
Good points:
- adjustable top tray so larger items can fit on the bottom (like big baking trays)
- satellite clean gets all the corners and nothing is missed
- range of programs and functions to suit different needs, including glass care for shiny glassware
- large cutlery tray with removable individual divider
- every single thing I've washed has come out as clean as new. It even removed the built up tea stains on mugs that I usually have to hand scrub clean!
- very easy to install with very clear instructions
- free extended warranty was easy to register
Not so good points:
- that big cutlery tray? Far too big! It takes up so much space and can only really go in one place without losing more functional space
- on 2 occasions the tablet hasn't released from the tablet drawer. The first time was user error (I think) by having a tall-ish tray close to the door. The second time though, there were no obstructions so I'm not sure.
- difficult to level once installed under the counter. Took longer to level it than actually install it. Cups on the top shelf kept sliding until it was properly levelled.
