AEG Series 5000 AirDry Freestanding Dishwasher - White, 13 Place Settings

The AEG Series 5000 is a freestanding dishwasher designed to simplify kitchen chores with intelligent features and reliable performance. As a 60cm wide appliance, it offers a spacious interior capable of accommodating up to 13 standard place settings, making it well-suited for medium to large households. Its core function is to provide thorough cleaning and drying of dishes, cutlery, and cookware, eliminating the need for hand washing after meals. Key technologies include the signature AirDry system, which automatically opens the dishwasher door at the end of a cycle to allow natural air to dry contents completely, saving energy compared to conventional heated drying. For delicate items, the GlassCare feature uses soft rubber spikes in the upper basket to securely hold glasses and mugs, preventing them from tipping or breaking. Practical programmes include a 30-minute Quick Wash for urgent needs, an Auto programme that detects soil level and adjusts settings accordingly, and an ExtraHygiene function that uses a 69°C rinse to sanitise items. The interior is flexible, with a height-adjustable upper basket (QuickLift system) that can be raised even when loaded to fit taller pots below. This model operates quietly at 46 dB, integrating well into open-plan living spaces. It is rated energy efficiency class E and consumes approximately 9.9 litres of water per cycle. The Machine Care cycle helps maintain the appliance by cleaning internal components. With its combination of capacity, hygienic cleaning, and convenient drying, this dishwasher is a practical solution for families seeking to reduce daily kitchen workload with efficient and dependable appliance performance.
