Why this verdict?
AEG makes the top-scoring dryers in Which?'s tests, and this 9 kg heat pump model has sensor drying and a 5-year guarantee. The heat pump saves roughly £75–100 a year against a condenser dryer if you use it a few times a week, which is what makes the price worth it.
Known problems owners report
- Cycles are long, like all heat pump dryers.
- The water tank needs emptying after a few loads, unless you plumb in the drain hose.
