Difference in technique between 7000 and 6000 series
AEG 7000: dries at a low temperature
The AEG 7000 series protects your clothes from overly high temperatures. SensiDry dries your clothes at half the regular temperature, so your clothes don't damage as easily. The dryer doesn't use a heating element to heat up the drum like a condenser dryer does, but it uses a heat pump that reuses the hot air. By constantly blowing the hot air back into the drum, you don't reach as high a temperature.
AEG 6000: adjusts the drying time based on the load
If you dry your clothes too long or too hot, there's a chance your clothes will shrink or that the colors fade. The ProSense technology adjusts the drying time and energy use based on the amount of laundry. The sensors measure the amount of moisture in the drum, and the dryer bases the drying time and intensity on that. That way, you prevent your clothes from staying in the dryer for too long. This is better for your clothes, energy bill, and the environment.
Difference in energy consumption between 7000 and 6000 series
AEG 7000: save at least € 1000 on energy costs
From the AEG 7000 series dryers, you can choose models with an energy label ranging from A+ to A+++. An A+ or A++ model isn't energy-efficient. Do you want to save on your energy bill? Choose an energy-efficient dryer with A+++ energy label. This allows you to save up to €1150 on the lifespan. This estimation is based on the comparison to a model with a B energy label and 8kg load capacity. The average lifespan of the dryer is 10 years.
AEG 6000: saves € 0 on energy costs
The 6000 series has a B energy label by default, so it's the least energy-efficient of all the AEG dryers. The B energy label is the lowest energy label. That's why we use this label as the basis to determine how much you save with a more energy-efficient model. Our calculation is based on a B energy label, 8kg load capacity, and an average lifespan of 10 years.
Difference in load capacity between the 7000 and 6000 series
AEG 7000: ranges from 7 to 8kg
Do you dry a small load for 1 person? Or do you also dry the bedding of 2 to 3 people in addition to your regular laundry? The 7000 series has dryers with a 7 or 8kg load capacity. If you save up your clothes, an 8kg model is a little more convenient. Choose a 7000 series instead of a 6000 series in that case.
AEG 6000: 7kg
Do you only dry small loads of laundry for 1 person? Choose a dryer with a 7kg load capacity from 6000 series. This way, you can do the laundry multiple times per week. Do you want to dry larger loads? Choose a dryer with a larger load capacity. The 7000 series, for example.
Difference AEG 8000 vs 7000 dryer
Do you want the dryer to dry more energy-efficiently and at a lower temperature? And want it to adjusts the drum movement? This technology makes sure that your favorite clothes stay beautiful longer, so you don't have to worry that they'll wear or shrink. You should also look at the difference between an AEG 7000 and 8000 dryer. An 8000 model uses a heat pump to dry at a low temperature, and it has a separate drum movement for each type of washing.
