Electricity ? Electric ?
Elektrizitaets in this particular instance actually means Electric and not Electricity.

I moved this comment from the article to here. It would be a valuable contibution if someone with a good command of German could clear this up (and modify the English translation of the name if needed). Thanks. - Fils du Soleil 01:41, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

A minor question
OK, I don't know if it's this company or the microphone company AKG, but when I watch anything WW2-related or read any WW2-related books, this tends to pop up over and over again in the acknowledgements list (or "Special Thanks To" in the credits of films/documentaries) for archival footage/photographs pertaining to this period. Which of the AEG companies would hold the company archive that would hold that type of WW2-related stuff? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.34.193.158 (talk) 01:11, 1 March 2012 (UTC)

AEG 1939 - 1945
Surely AEG did more in the Second World War than is stated in the article? The obsession with slave labour and concentration camps, stinks of a very serious bias. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.173.26.51 (talk) 14:02, 10 May 2012 (UTC)

In 1994 : AEG meets Westinghouse
If you see, in the article &ldquo;Breda VLC&rdquo; in the french version of WP, he said AEG Westinghouse 1504&hairsp;A, an motor made in italy or made in germany/USA made in 1994 for these 24 trainsets with one prototram like these ! ÉOLE79000 (talk) 20:09, 11 December 2021 (UTC)

Reparations
I'm not happy with 's change from "In an effort to express regret" to "In a perceived effort to express regret". It smacks of editorialising, see MOS:DOUBT. AEG corporately did express regret whatever the editor's views about the individuals concerned. I'm reverting the change, bring any discussion here.

Trustpilot rating needs to be removed
I think the trustpilot rating needs to be removed, or at least clarified and moved from the introduction. There are at least three reasons: In short, this is misleading. I am in no way affiliated with AEG or Electrolux and I would probably not buy an AEG appliance since they closed almost all of their factories in Germany (and yes, I tend to spend my money locally if possible), but this is not appropriate.--2001:BB8:2002:2400:B409:ECC5:6FAF:ADC8 (talk) 15:42, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
 * It is unclear from the wording which products this refers to. I suppose it is appliances, but it is not clear. Since the brand is now used, as stated, by a variety of companies with different backgrounds (some with in-house R&D and manufacturing, others merely labelling imports) there can be no single rating for "AEG". AEG as such is no more, so I cannot have a rating.
 * Assuming this is for appliances, it seems pretty much typical. Bosch has 1.5 (assuming this is for appliances, Worcester Bosch has 4.6) and even Miele (which is a top brand and a lot more expensive than AEG) has 1.3 in Sweden and Belgium (but 1.7 in Germany and 4.2 in the UK). Those ratings seem a bit odd, and the AEG rating isn't untypical. Furthermore, I doubt the users know what they do, I am sure lots of people who bought a cheap, chinese-made "AEG" lightbulb for a few pennies and are surprised they don't last, put in a comment for "AEG".
 * I cannot find similar entries for other companies, at least not in the introduction.
