Energy Efficient Tumble Dryer
AEG offers a wide range of tumble dryer from B to A+++ rated. (A+++ is the most energy efficient and will have the greatest impact on energy costs.) Sophisticated heat pump technology can save up to 40% on energy compared to standard condensers, making it a cost-effective solution.
Dry smarter thanks to ProSense which ensures the best energy consumption by quickly adapting the cycle to the load size. Choose a machine with an inverter motor. They're gentler on the drum and fan and can keep your dryer running longer. The result: shorter drying times and more consistent results.
Tip: Don't overfill your dryer. If you leave room for your clothes to "breathe" they'll dry faster.
Tumble Dryer Dimensions
The first step in choosing a tumble dryer is ensuring you have the space for it.
If you have a 60cm width space then a standard tumble dryer will fit your space.
If you have standard front-loaded washing machine, you can also stack a standard dryer on top to make an all in one laundry space.
Tip: Need more space? Consider buying a compact 2-in-1 washer dryer combo.
Tumble Dryer Capacity
When you think of capacity, it's often in terms of how many kilos of laundry you can fit into your machine. But there's more to consider:
Household size: large families versus single
Habits: how many times a week do you wash?
Type and size of wash items: For example: bedlinens, duvets, and curtains require a larger drum for the best results.
All AEG dryers are equipped with ProSense technology. ProSense uses advanced humidity and temperature sensors to adjust energy consumption for loads large and small.
DRYING DELICATES FABRICS & WOOL

Tumble Dryer with Steam
ProSteam uses steam as a quick and easy way to refresh creased clothes so they're ready to wear. The short, gentle program reduces creases in dry fabrics.
Sensor Dryers
Every AEG dryer in our 6000, 7000 and 8000 range features ProSense technology. Advanced humidity and temperature sensors detect when fabrics are dry and stop the program. ProSense saves time and energy and protects items from over drying. AEG's 3D Scan technology is available for 9000 series models. The unique sensor detects humidity on the surface and the inside of items. The result: fabric - from wool to silk and even down - is treated with precision and care.
Smart Tumble Dryers
With the My AEG Care App, connect your laundry appliances to your phone for a smarter, faster way to care for your wash. Simply open the app and choose the temperature, fabric type and colour. And the app will tailor a program in response. For customized laundry care - all from your smartphone.
