The AEG T8DBG842R combines an 8kg drying capacity, A++ efficiency and specialist fabric care technologies to dry everyday, delicate and outdoor clothing with confidence.
AEG T8DBG842R 8000 Series 8kg Heat Pump Tumble Dryer
The AEG T8DBG842R 8000 Series 8kg heat pump tumble dryer with AbsoluteCare is designed to dry everything from everyday shirts to soft wool jumpers and outdoor garments with tailored care.
Using the AbsoluteCare® System, this tumble dryer precisely controls drum movement and drying temperature to suit different fabrics. It helps prevent shrinkage, maintain shape and restore waterproofing, redefining tumble drying for the clothes in your wardrobe.
Why choose the AEG T8DBG842R tumble dryer?
Choose the AEG T8DBG842R if you want an 8kg freestanding heat pump dryer focused on fabric care as well as efficiency. Its AbsoluteCare system tailors drum movement and temperature for wool, silk and outdoor garments, while SensiDry uses lower temperatures and ProSense adjusts cycle time to the load. The A++ rating, single ÖKOFlow filter, Woolmark Blue care and direct drain hose make it a practical fit for medium households wanting gentle, lower-energy drying.
AbsoluteCare® Protection for Every Fabric
The AbsoluteCare® system uses tailored programmes to control how the drum moves and how heat is applied during each cycle. Woollens are kept flat against the drum to replicate flat drying, while outdoor garments receive the right amount of heat to help restore the functionality of their waterproof membrane.
From wool and silk to sportswear and outdoor clothing, every fabric receives the right movement and temperature to dry thoroughly while preserving its quality, look and feel.
Low Temperature Drying with SensiDry Technology
AEG SensiDry technology draws moisture from fabrics at half the temperature of conventional tumble dryers, without significantly extending the drying time. This helps protect clothes from unnecessary heat, keeping textures closer to how they felt when new.
By drying at lower temperatures, SensiDry also helps save energy while caring gently for the clothes you wear every day.
ProSense Technology Saves Time and Energy
ProSense technology uses advanced humidity and temperature sensors to adjust drying time and energy use for every load size. Whether you are drying a day’s washing or a week’s worth, the cycle is adapted to suit the load.
This helps reduce time and energy consumption while gently protecting your clothing.
Easy Cleaning with the ÖKOFlow Filter System
The ÖKOFlow Filter System is designed to be easy to reach and simple to clean. Unlike conventional dryers with multiple filters, this AEG tumble dryer uses one efficient filter to help maintain drying performance and energy efficiency.
Keeping the filter clean helps the appliance dry each load effectively while supporting long-lasting efficiency.
Shorter Drying Cycles with Better Care
Thanks to improved airflow design, AEG dryers dry faster and more efficiently than conventional heat pump dryers. This means your clothes receive better care while benefiting from shorter drying cycles.
Why Choose AbsoluteCare®?
With the AbsoluteCare® system, you can dry garments you may not have considered suitable for tumble drying, including soft wool jumpers. The Woolmark certified drying system tailors drum movement and drying temperature to each garment, helping wool jumpers retain their shape and texture with no shrinkage guaranteed.
