About the manufacturer
It’s easy to understand the underlying reason that allowed AEG to create an innovative approach to gentle drying of things at home. It's about experience. The company dates back to 1883. It is not surprising that, celebrating its 135th anniversary since its founding this year, the company in question can rightfully call itself one of the pioneers in the design and development of home appliances for the home. However, this was not always the case.
The period from 1907 when the leading German architect Peter Behrens, with enormous experience in his professional field, became an art consultant to a little-known company at that time, was considered the main stage of the AEG’s “production boom”. The most significant result of his activities was the creation and further strengthening of export lines. The equipment created by AEG Corporation, as a result of its work, adopted a single unique style of external design, while maintaining a high level of quality of manufactured products. From this moment on, every detail that is an integral part of the AEG image, whether it is branded packaging or a catalog of electronic products of the brand, has become recognizable around the world.
The first AEG dryer was launched in 1964, and even then was considered a kind of “breakthrough” in the production of household gadgets. At that time, no one had suspected that after decades the company in question would substantially modify, “improve” the technical characteristics of its device, which would expediently create even greater demand for the goods manufactured by them. So how does it work?
What it is
The main purpose of AEG drying machines is considered to be the delicate drying of things in the drum of the device. It is worth paying attention to the external similarity of the gadgets discussed in this article with traditional washing machines. However, in principle, there is still a fundamental difference.
Unlike usual household appliances, the dryer does not use water in its work, but acts on things loaded into the drum with a heated stream of air. In most cases, the temperature of such a directed flow reaches 70-80 degrees Celsius. Throughout the process, the drum rotates continuously, maintaining an average speed, due to which the evaporation of moisture from the clothes to be dried occurs much faster than would happen in a washing machine or in the open air.
In addition to the unique principle of action thought out by the AEG manufacturer, drying gadgets have a number of distinctive properties that can dry clothes not only in the shortest possible time, but also do it as carefully as possible, allowing you to preserve the original appearance of "processed" things. These differences include:
- the unique Absolute Care technology (adapted automatic program to "adjust" the movement and temperature of the drying drum, depending on the type of "processed" material);
- “Straightened” drying (things subjected to heat “processing” of the gadget in question are in the drum of the device in a straightened form throughout the entire process);
- SensiDry option (air drying at low temperatures for use with "noble" fabrics, which eliminates the risk of over-drying of the material);
- ProSense technology (the presence of sensors that regulate the temperature and energy consumption of the dryer, depending on the texture of the material used in the production of laundry loaded into the drum).
How to choose
So, having the need to purchase a drying machine, the decisive moment in the question of the appropriateness of choosing a product among the AEG model range should be an analysis of the basic advantages and disadvantages of the household devices considered in the article.
Among the most common positive results of using AEG gadgets are:
- high speed drying washed laundry without the further need for its "drying";
- maintaining the necessary level of moisture in the material in order to avoid "drying out" of things common during prolonged drying of clothes in the open air, in particular in the sun;
- elimination of small folds on the surface of the laundry during its rotation in the drum, which greatly facilitates the further process of ironing;
- getting rid of “stubborn” odors that are resistant to washing powders, conditioners, sachets and so on;
- the ability to efficiently work effectively with any type of material while preserving its original appearance, provided that the appropriate automatic program is selected.
Of course, like all other household devices on the modern market, AEG dryers are not without drawbacks. To form an objective assessment of the manufactured goods, it is important to consider:
- the high cost of a high-quality model of “drying” linen for home use;
- large dimensions of the structure, suggesting its placement in a spacious room;
- difficulty to use for novice users.
Obviously, the above disadvantages clearly lose weight when analyzing the advantages of drying devices from AEG. So, with the intention of buying such a device, the search for the most suitable product among the top models of the AEG lineup is more than advisable.
