Anticipating the summary for those in a hurry :)
+ Low installation depth
+ Good dryer Result
+ Good washing performance
+ Relatively quiet operation (also in the spin cycle)
+ Good balance control
+ Easy to use
+ Clean processing
+ Right extensive facilities
o small drum volume
o not as economical as individual units
=> Solid combination, on which there is little to complain about. Only the very small compared drum volume should note 7 kg of laundry you get difficulties in the drum (a peculiarity which our AEG washing machine is), therefore the equipment for families with high volumes of laundry is only conditionally suitable. Smaller households get here but a very well-functioning equipment with good facilities, clean lines and not objectionable washing / drying result. For this purpose: 5 stars.
To 75670 in detail:
Equipment & Processing:
The AEG 75670 brings compared with other models in the price range with a solid equipment. In particular, the very high spin speed of 1600 trips is a feature that does not offer all the products. Apart from the now mandatory automatic load with on board, a sufficient number of wash programs (only down, new fabrics and an XXL program has saved for the benefit of the dryer functions) and as expected remaining time display, time delay and Aqua stop. It is nice that the porthole was double glazed and thus little heat even when hot wash, Children in the home is an important factor.
The processing of the device works well, and the materials have a high-quality feel. Overall, much better than adequate in our Bauknecht dryer and the price range. The drum, the most important component is working nice and smooth and it disturb any sharp edges that could damage the laundry, everything was as it should be.
The left-hand door hinge is not reversible, what you should consider when setting up. For this, the device boasts small dimensions, 48.5 cm housing depth at the top and good 53 cm at the front (without Bull liquor) are not much. Be paid for the compact dimensions through a fairly small drum volume, which stands out in comparison with other machines of the same capacity and noticeable even with normal AEG washing machines.
Due to the small volume of the water consumption values are particularly quite low, the combination but consumes about 20% more water than a traditional machine from the same manufacturer.
Operation:
The operation of the machine is easy, even when the dual function of washing machine and dryer a look at the instructions can be required. There you will find a total of 9 different programs (two of which are equipped with a pre-wash option), which are selected via the rotary switch. All programs can be combined with three electronically controlled drying options (Iron dry, cupboard dry, extra dry) or a time dry option. For the sole drying cycle without the AEG offers 3 programs that are also selected on the dial. The currently selected program is signaled by LED and the corresponding parameters are displayed on the one-line display. By means of separate keys you then influence on temperature, spin speed and options timesaving and time delay.
Thanks to large porthole the laundry almost the drum as described can easily bring in the machine, however 7kg washing narrowly, this one should also be aware.
Washing performance and noise:
After the start of the washing program the 75670 his work begins almost silently. Only pump and water supply are clearly audible, the actual washing is very quiet of equip, a plus point of the machine, especially when they are BSP. want to integrate into a kitchen / needs. The programs already take some time to complete and can even 4 hour mark crack in program. It is good that the machine adjusts the washing time with half loads. It takes a few minutes before the correct time is shown on the display. The high spin speed makes the clothes quite dry at the end of the wash cycle of the machine come, here you notice a difference to machinery 1400 tours.
The washing result is very good. Even dirtier clothes were easily clean again, even at lower temperatures. In the laundry there were no detergent residue or the like, so that the machine worked reliably here. The laundry also did not stick at the edge of the drum but was quite loose and it could easily be removed, despite the high spin speed. Here the machine was working even better than our previous machine AEG.
I was also of the still relatively low noise levels during spinning surprised (emphasis here is on relatively). Despite the high number of washer-dryer is not louder than our washing machine and has a good balance control, it struggled nothing despite different load. A plus point for integration into a kitchenette.
At the end of the washing program the machine signaled by means of an acoustic signal the completion of their work - who would disturb: The signal is switched off.
Dryer performance and noise:
The dryer function can be combined either with the washing function or separately selected. Here reduces the permissible load to 4 kg, which is probably also due to the relatively small drum. The laundry could otherwise not be durchgemengt properly when drying and would therefore be unevenly dry. From the volume ago the machine in the dryer operation is even a little quieter than our classic condenser. I was surprised by the result. No matter what the degree of drying (Iron dry, cupboard dry, extra dry), the laundry was as expected from the machine. The maturities are doing something about the our dryer and may in particular when combined with the washing function already times for 6 hours to go to the final wash the land. This can get over if you are washing in the morning before leaving the house in the machine and can take it to work, the finished dried laundry in reception, is already practically the combination of washing machine and dryer.
Upon drying, the device consumes more power than an equivalent for heat pump dryer, here you have in the combination but then cut back. Also offers a classic dryer more program choices (whether one uses but really, everyone has to decide for itself).
Cleaning:
In contrast to the conventional dryers are available at the machine no fluff filter, which must be cleaned and no condensate tank, as the water is removed via the drain hose. According to the manual should from time to time only the inlet and outlet filters, and the detergent dispenser are cleaned, as in a conventional washing machine also. The outlay for this so has its limits.
Conclusion:
I'm honestly surprised because I would have thought that the combination of washing machine and dryer noticeably worse beats than using separate devices. Only the AEG typical snare drum volume offers little cause for criticism and should be taken into account in their purchasing decision. However, the advantage of this is the low depth, which should make the integration into the kitchen for example is very simple. Apart from that, the machine scores with a good processing, good, functional amenities, a very good washing and drying results and an ease of use. The terms are not exactly short, but this is a trend that also have the separate units and due to the energy savings.
In sum, the washer-dryer has little room for criticism and therefore receives consistent way 5 star. A successful combination device.
