Vented Tumble Dryer

This dryer is QUALITY you won’t buy better. I’ve went threw so many dryers with my family, it’s quick,easy to work, quiet, I love it

This replaced an aging condenser dryer and I have to say not only does this dry quicker but its also a lot quieter than the dryer it replaced. It will quickly dry a full load of towels in an hour and most general loads in roughly 55-45 minutes with minimal creasing, seems to collect less fluff than my old dryer so I am assuming its probably a lot less harsh on fabrics. The 3 vent hose positions are what sold this dryer to me (aside from the fact its an AEG, so pretty well made) as it made installation MUCH simpler.
Overall I'm happy and if anything happened to it I'd happily repurchase this dryer, just gets on with its job with minimal fuss and effort.

Great dryer very fast at drying bedding and clothes. Massive drum with lots of different drying programmes for various different clothes. Been great so far cannot fault it. Looking to buy the matching washing machine to compliment it.

... With both the dryer and with AEG support (nonexistent)
Bought the dryer in Feb 2021. Specifically wanted a vented machine, preferably from a quality manufacturer. From day two, it started making an annoying squeak when rotating in the main direction (squeak stops during the brief periods when the drum rotates in the opposite direction) - loud enough to be heard in other rooms.
The AEG support page about "Unusual noises" says that "If the machine is new, the sound will probably disappear after a while".
After a week, I queried how long "after a while" might be via the AEG customer support page - no response from AEG, even after following up a few weeks later. Four months on, the squeak has become intermittent, both within a drying cycle and from day to day use - sometimes it disappears, only to return later as bad as ever.

On a positive note, the dryer does actually get the wash dry fairly consistently, occasionally toes/heels of thick socks have hint of dampness, as can thick waistbands. It's a pity there is no 15 minute drying option (instead of 30 mins which is the shortest) to deal with this. Also a count-down to completion timer would be helpful, as would an interior light.
