Choosing Between Miele and Aeg Tumble Dryer

There’s little reason to recommend the Miele over the Aeg, as the differences between the EcoSpeed and the 7000 SensiDry are relatively modest. Choosing between the two often comes down to personal preferences, such as noise, styling, load size, and unique features.

That said, we currently recommend the Hisense 3 Series heat pump tumble dryer over both the MIELE EcoSpeed and the AEG 7000 SensiDry, as it offers a more compelling balance of performance, features, user-feedback, and value.
