Third-party reviews

What we like about AEG L86565TL4

  • At 40 cm wide, it suits a tight kitchen.
  • Washing noise is 47 dB.
  • Each cycle uses 38 L of water.
  • The spin reaches 1500 RPM, which keeps drying time short.
  • Sixteen programs include jeans, wool and anti-allergy.
  • AquaStop guards against hose leaks.

What we don't like about AEG L86565TL4

  • Capacity is 6 kg, so large loads need more cycles.
  • Spin noise is 77 dB.
  • At 89 cm tall, it will not suit a low space.
  • At 62 kg, it is hard to move.

Verdict

Width is what matters most with the AEG L86565TL4, which is only 40 cm across. A small kitchen and a household of one or two suit it well. Washing runs at 47 dB, which is quiet enough for evening loads. Each cycle uses 38 L of water, and the machine uses 8390 L a year. The spin reaches 1500 RPM, so less drying time is needed. Automatic drum positioning and a soft-opening door make loading simpler. Sixteen programs cover jeans, wool and an anti-allergy wash, and a time remaining indicator shows how long is left. The trade-off is capacity and noise. At 6 kg it takes less washing per load, and the spin is loud at 77 dB. It is a good pick for someone who wants a gentle, low-water washer.
