Or as my mom used to say: AEG auspacken, einschalten, geht nicht.

Which translates to: unpack, switch on, doesnt work.

She owned a couple of AEG devices and all broke immediately except the oven. AEG ovens and stove tops seem to be mostly OK for whatever reason.

It's crazy how long those reputation can last. AEG made good product 30-40 years ago, like everyone else as is was standard to build quality gear.
