Good Points
Good build quality, super price. This is a second AEG washing machine that we have in our household, and based on the experience of the first one, we bought another.
Bad Points
We also have an AEG fridge, which did cause a problem. Sadly AEG's response to it was not very favourable. So i do hope that things go smoothly with our washing machines!

Easy to understand proramme selection
Bad Points
Lack of rear wheels made it hard to slot into the space under the worktop.
It took a while to realise that that the cycle time could be reduced with the 'time' button.

Easy to use, you can change the times of the washes, and delay the start time to suit you. Enough programmes without the hassle - easy to understand and use.
Nice and quiet - no problem whatsoever.
Had and AEG for over 25 years with no problem so chose it again.
Bad Points
none really.

Good Points
It washes well and I have some control over the time of each wash. The spin cycle can be used at any speed setting.
Bad Points
I think a bigger drum capacity would be an advantage.

Good Points
The time saver option allows you to reduce wash cycle times.
Bad Points
I bought this machine as it stated it had a quick wash cycle, and it has a 1400 spin... if you select the quick wash cycle it will only work on a 1000rpm spin, so you have to manually select the 1400 spin cycle after the washing has finished. This defeats the purpose of a short wash cycle, one of the main reasons I purchased this machine. The electric power cable also seems quite short in comparison to my old machine, so had difficulty reaching the power socket. This is a bulky washing machine, worth viewing first if possible.

Good Points
Our first non-Hotpoint machine for 20 yrs. Much quieter and pretty easy to use. Hope that it proves to be as reliable as the brand name reputation suggests.
Bad Points
Control panel could look a bit more modern, but it seems robust enough. Machine is a bit deeper than other ones we have owned, so it sticks out from our worktop by about 2 inches when pushed full back.
