The laundry dries also pretty bad and the term is really unacceptable. The only programs that are acceptable, the cotton program Extra Dry and the linen program. After 3 more months then the thrumming sound came again ..... I was so annoyed and did not really have the time to worry, that I only 1 month ago had the technicians back - the same problem. Oh yes, the technician advised me an extended warranty for 6.50 euros to complete, as it indeed is a quality device - HI builds decent equipment and I do not need such a warranty extension.
My conclusion: This was definitely my last AEG device. Especially as the price we have paid for it far exceeded the here at Amazon. Absolutely no purchase recommendation. Unfortunately
