AEG FFX52507ZW 5000 AirDry Slimline Dishwasher, 10 Place Settings, White

The AEG FFX52507ZW 45 cm dishwasher, part of the highly regarded 5000 Series, is an excellent choice for those seeking a compact yet powerful dishwashing solution. This freestanding, slimline dishwasher, finished in a crisp white, is designed to blend seamlessly into any modern kitchen. Its compact 45 cm width makes it perfect for smaller spaces, without compromising on performance or capacity, fitting up to ten place settings with ease.

One of the standout features of the AEG FFX52507ZW is its energy efficiency, boasting an E rating. This ensures that, while it delivers exceptional cleaning power, it does so in a manner that is mindful of energy consumption, which is an increasingly important consideration for many households. The dishwasher operates at a noise level of just 46 dB, which means it runs quietly in the background, allowing for a peaceful home environment even while it’s in operation.

The interior of the dishwasher is thoughtfully designed with practicality in mind. It features a cutlery tray instead of a basket, providing more space and better organisation for your cutlery. The MaxiFlex drawer further enhances loading flexibility, allowing you to easily fit and wash larger items or an array of smaller utensils. The adjustable racking and height-adjustable upper basket provide additional versatility, enabling you to accommodate a variety of dish sizes and shapes, from tall glasses to large pots and pans.

This model is equipped with five wash programmes, catering to different needs and levels of soiling. These include a quick 30-minute wash for when you need dishes cleaned in a hurry, a more intensive cycle for heavily soiled items, and an eco wash that balances performance with energy and water efficiency. The standard eco wash programme runs for four hours, reflecting a commitment to thorough cleaning while being energy-conscious. Additionally, there is a 90-minute cycle, a 160-minute cycle, and a rinse and hold option, offering a range of choices to suit your washing requirements.

The dishwasher's design incorporates several innovative features aimed at enhancing convenience and performance. AirDry Technology ensures that your dishes come out perfectly dry every time by automatically opening the door slightly at the end of the cycle to allow natural air drying. Dual spray arms ensure that water reaches every corner of the dishwasher, resulting in comprehensive cleaning. The appliance also includes a rinse aid and salt level indicator, making it easy to maintain optimal performance.

Safety and ease of use are paramount in the design of the AEG FFX52507ZW. It features anti-flood protection to prevent water damage in case of a fault, and an auto power-off function for energy saving. The delay timer allows you to set the dishwasher to run at a time that is most convenient for you, while the acoustic signal can be turned off if you prefer a completely silent operation. For those with hard water, the hard water adjustment feature ensures optimal cleaning results and protection for your dishes and the appliance itself.

Despite its compact size, the FFX52507ZW does not compromise on quality or performance. Its stainless steel interior cavity is durable and hygienic, ensuring long-lasting use. The LED indicators provide clear and simple information about the dishwasher’s status, and the rotary dial and push buttons offer straightforward control. Installation is hassle-free thanks to the standard door hinges and adjustable feet, ensuring a stable and secure fit in your kitchen.

In summary, the AEG FFX52507ZW 45 cm dishwasher combines compact design with powerful, efficient performance, making it an ideal choice for smaller households or kitchens where space is at a premium. With its range of features and programmes, it delivers excellent cleaning results while being easy to use and maintain.
