AEG plates: characteristics and subtleties of operation

AEG household cookers are well known to Russian consumers. The devices are distinguished by high reliability and stylish design; they are manufactured taking into account modern innovative technologies.

Plates AEG Competence are produced at the production facilities of the Swedish concern Electrolux Group. The brand itself belongs to the German General Electric Company, which celebrated its 135th anniversary and was one of the pioneers in the production of household stoves at the beginning of the last century. Currently, the concern has located its branches in many countries of the world, including Hong Kong and Romania, where most of the products of the legendary German brand are produced. The company that manufactures household stoves is a regular participant in various international competitions, where it always receives the highest marks from experts and a strict jury. Thanks to the unsurpassed German quality and reliability, AEG household cookers do not lose their popularity and are gaining more and more fans around the world.

High consumer demand and a large number of approvals are due to a number of undeniable advantages of AEG products.

1. All household stoves are produced in a classic case, which makes it perfectly combined with any stylistic design of the kitchen. Models are made in white and silver colors, which allows you to choose the device for any modern interior.
2. Most AEG models are equipped with a Cataluxe oven catalytic cleaning system that breaks down grease and other contaminants into water and carbon dioxide. This makes cleaning the appliances easy and convenient, and the stove always clean and tidy.
3. The range of household stoves is represented by both narrow models with a width of 50 cm and overall 60 cm samples. This greatly facilitates the choice and allows you to choose the device for a kitchen set of any size.
4. The protective glazing of the ovens is made of heat-resistant impact-resistant glass of high tempering, which significantly reduces heat loss inside the cabinet and protects the outer part of the stove from overheating. The glasses are tinted, which makes the plates look very solid and aesthetically pleasing.
5. All AEG models are equipped with a convenient and spacious utility drawer for storing small kitchen utensils.
6. Some samples are additionally equipped with glass covers to protect the walls from greasy splashes.
7. Most of the devices are coated with a special AntiFinger Print compound, which prevents the appearance of fingerprints on the steel surface. The layer does not lose its performance over time and is highly resistant to direct sunlight and abrasive agents.
8. Household stoves are quite maintainable, there are no problems with the availability of spare parts.
9. Many models are equipped with a delayed start function and a timer that can program the cooking time.

There are not so many disadvantages to AEG boards. Chief among them is the price. The models do not belong to the category of budget devices, they represent the golden mean between premium and economy class models. Some soiling of the plates is also noted: despite the declared properties of the protective coating, fingerprints and stains on the surface are noticeable, which can also be attributed to the disadvantages.

Today the company produces four types of household stoves: gas, electric, induction and combined.

Such AEG models are modern safe appliances that are in no way inferior to modern induction ovens in terms of their working qualities, and in terms of cooking speed they can compete with them. The manufacturer pays great attention to the safety of operation, so he equipped his equipment with several protection systems. So, all gas models are equipped with a gas control system that will immediately cut off the fuel supply in the event of an accidental fire extinguishing. In addition, the ovens are equipped with convenient telescopic rails and a steak grill. Also, the ovens are equipped with top and bottom heating, which contributes to more even baking of bread and pies.

The inner enamel of the oven is highly heat-resistant and very easy to clean. The hob is equipped with four hotplates of different diameters and power. Many models are equipped with a new type of burner that directs the flame to the center of the pan or pot. This allows you to use pans with a rounded bottom and quickly bring large amounts of water to a boil. The cooking grates are made of cast iron and can support the weight of large bins. The burners have electric ignition, which eliminates the need to purchase a piezo lighter or matches.

AEG electric cookers are the most popular type of appliances, which firmly hold the leading position. The models are equipped with a glass-ceramic hob, a comfortable and spacious oven, Hi-Light high-speed burners with a double circuit, designed to use dishes of different diameters. Moreover, the burners have a residual heat indication, which does not allow burning your hands on an uncooled surface. The volume of the oven for 50 cm models is 61 liters, while for 60 cm models it reaches 74 liters.

Heating elements of ovens are capable of operating in several modes (from defrosting food to baking and grilling). Ovens of electric ovens are equipped with a turbo grill or a convector-type heating element with the HotAir system. Thanks to this design, it is possible to achieve a more uniform heat distribution and a high degree of baking. In addition, some high-tech models are capable of operating in automatic modes designed for the preparation of some specific dishes (for example, the "Pizza" mode). All AEG electric stoves have a Direktouch function that allows you to set a certain cooking temperature, are equipped with a UniSight timer, a bright display of which makes it possible to quickly determine how much time is left until the dish is ready.

Such AEG slabs represent the most technically advanced and most functional devices. The induction currents flowing upwards keep the hob surface outside the working circle cold. In addition, induction heats the bottom of the cookware directly at the points of contact with the hob. Thanks to this technology, the liquid spilled over the edge is excluded from burning, and the safety of using the stove is increased. When the pan is removed from the working circle, the heating stops automatically, and only resumes after reinstalling the pan.

The models are also equipped with a panel lock function, which will prevent, for example, a child from accidentally changing the parameters. The advantages of induction models include a high heating rate, energy savings and a presentable appearance. Among the disadvantages are the ban on the use of aluminum or glassware, as well as the effect of an induction magnetic field on the performance of electrical appliances located nearby.This also includes the high cost, which is almost twice the cost of gas stoves. By the way, the effect of magnetic induction is absolutely safe for a person already at a distance of 30 cm from the coil, therefore, rumors about the radioactivity of food cooked on such a stove do not correspond to reality.

These are AEG models, which are a "symbiosis" of gas and electric stoves. Here, the cooking zone is represented by gas burners, and the oven is powered by electricity. Turbo grills are often installed in such models, allowing you to bake large pieces of meat and large fish. Combined appliances incorporate all the best qualities of gas and electric stoves. At the same time, they have the same additional functions and safety systems as gas samples.

For induction models, place them as far away from sophisticated household appliances as microwave ovens and refrigerators when connecting.

A prerequisite for connecting a gas stove is the presence of working ventilation in the kitchen and free access to the window. In addition, the gas stove cannot be installed in the corner of the room or placed close to the wall. The recommended distance from the appliance to the sink is at least 50 cm, to the window - 30 cm.
