How long does a 40 degree wash take your machine?

[IwishIwasmoreorganised]

Mine takes 2 hours - is that about right??

About 4 days.

My washing machine is knackered.

Machine as per NannyL - love it! esp the countdown bit.

different time for diff fabric - cotton either 2hr4 or 1hr4; synthetics 1hr20 or 53 min; wool 54; etc etc

but 'quick' option for nearly all cycles.

40 mins

My new Miele has a 30 min express wash at 40 degrees but I can also do a 1 hour, 1.5 hour or 2 hour wash.

2 hours is long, with no short option!

1.5 hours synthetics
2 hours cotton

Zanussi

1hr 16 mins on normal but can do a 50 mins on a shorter one

50 mins, with lovely digital countdown. John Lewis 3 year guaranteed model. Best wm I've ever had that ( watch it break down now I've said that...!)

1 hr 14 (Bosch, fairly basic model)

1h 40 Bosch

32 mins quick wash

2hrs normal wash
machine is about 6mnths old.

my old not very energy efficient machine took just 40 mins for a quick wash , we got a new a grade energy one that just has a cold water inlet and it takes 1:45 to do a 40 load but uses 20% less energy than old machine! I dont understand! LMAO

Could not cope with 2hour wash cycles. My Bosch has a very good quick cycle - about 35 mins, and that gets used for everything. I wash everything after one wear anyway so nothing is really dirty, as such.

Whites get a handful of soda crystals thrown in so they don't go grey.

The only exception is when dd's rugby/football kit gets muddy, that is then treated to a long wash.

47 minutes

lol at myself on being so strangely interested at the responses on this thread.

Secretly love housekeeping threads, I remember one about a year ago about teatowels that went on for about 250 posts iirc

50 mins ish for quick wash (mostly use this), around 2 hrs cotton wash. bosch, cheapest one john lewises do.

Synthetic wash takes 55 mins

Right - now I'm quietly hoping for my washing machine to break down so that I can get one that's quicker!!

122 mins for full load cottons
86 mins for full load synthetics
