Verdict

The AEG FFB74917ZM is a full-size, freestanding 60 cm stainless steel dishwasher belonging to the Series 6000 range, offering a spacious 14 place setting capacity and an energy efficiency class C rating. It is driven by an inverter motor operating at a quiet noise level of 44 dB and features 8 washing programs—including a 30-minute quick wash and an Eco mode with a 4.5-hour cycle time—while consuming 10.5 liters of water per cycle and 75 kWh per 100 cycles. Key pros include the innovative SatelliteClean spray arm providing up to three times better coverage, a MaxiFlex third cutlery tray, an automated AirDry open-door system, and an ExtraHygiene sanitization option that heats the final rinse to 69°C. On the downside, the appliance has a relatively long standard Eco cycle runtime, lacks a built-in child lock, and features button controls rather than a more premium full touch slider interface.
