Verdict

The AEG F78420IM0P is a semi-integrated slimline dishwasher with a 9-place setting capacity, designed with a compact 446 mm width that fits 450 mm installation compartments. Key characteristics include an A++ energy efficiency rating, 7 wash programs (such as Auto, Silent, Eco, and Intensive), 5 temperature settings reaching up to 70 °C, and a water consumption rate of 8.9 liters per cycle (0.7 kWh per cycle). Its main pros are the efficient ProClean satellite spray arm for complete water coverage, a low 45 dB noise level (reducing to 43 dB in ExtraSilent mode), a 1–24 hour delay start timer, SoftSpikes to protect glassware, and integrated AquaSensor and AquaStop safety mechanisms. However, its small slimline footprint makes it less suitable for larger households, and the ExtraSilent program inherently increases the total cycle runtime.
