Can anyone beat this? How long does your washer take to do a normal cycle?

[MerlinsBeard]

from pressing start to running thru a normal 40 degree wash with no extra rinse, no prewash just a wash, a rinse and a spin.

I bet you can;t beat mine

I think the 40 deg, 1200 spin, cotton cycle on my Bosch machine is about 1hr 20

Mine's 1 hour 20 mins - LG

It takes forever in our house - my DS has to be constantly watched as he has a habit of pushing the buttons on the machine ...

35 minutes

ermm not sure exactly depends on how much stuff is in there (one of those fancy smancy ones that works out how much stuff is in there and adjust times accordingly) think usually around 1hr 30 (Daewoo)

My old one took about 2 1/2hrs

2hrs 28 mins - hotpoint i think (can't be arsed to go downstairs and look)

Quick was is 38 minutes

mine is long, 1hr 57mins for a basic wash, i use the quick wash setting most of the time.

Quick wash on mine is 15 mins.

Miele - 1hr 58 or 1hr 6 if I put in on "short".

But it also adjusts itself depending on how much is in there

i don't have a quick wash setting on mine

No one has even come close yet

i left my alrightish washer at the flat when i moved because there was one here - i want my old one back

15 minutes

Just over an hour I think but it is an old machine. Also it makes a big difference if you have a cold fill. Ours is hot and cold so most of the water goes into machine from the boiler. Many modern machines have to heat up the water themselves which adds to the time of course.

46 mins, not sure what make, can't be b otherd to look!

1hr 57 minutes

I reckon yours is about 3 hours MoM.

?? Am I right.

(my dishwasher on the eco setting takes almost 3 hours - first time I thought it had broken!)

I do most stuff on quick wash as I am a slattern...obviously pay more care to important/dirty things....we have 3 quick wash settings, 29minute. 45 and 60...I love quick wash.

wow - 15 mins!! just time to make a cup of tea

My washing mzchine takes 35 mins on 35, 1000 with two rinses - quicker with normal rinse but think 30mins.

Ours does have an AA economy 40degree wash that seems to take all day.

1hr 23mins, or 50mins if on a quick wash.
It's a hoptpoint.
(it says 1hr 30, but it always jumps from 7mins left to being done...not sure why)

mine takes FOREVER! about 2hours and 40.....tiz a fucking pain...and its broken because i keep overloading it...man is coming today, and my washing bin is just about to start spilling from my bedroom, into the hallway, down the stairs, and into the kitchen....like that magic porridge pot.

there. bet you're sorry you asked now!

MoM is yours 15 minutes too, or was your at NomdePlume?

My dishwasher (also Bosch) has 5 settings - a cold rinse (15m), a 35 degree wash (15m), a 50 'eco' wash (2hrs!), a 65 degree wash (also 2hrs) and a heavy soil 95 degree wash (about 2h 15m). I nearly always use the 35 degree with a rinse beforehand (30m in total) and the stuff comes out sparkling. Only use the more hardcore programmes if we have had a roast of soemething with mucho dirty pans and crockery. How on earth can a 2 HOUR cycle be economical ?!

NDP re the dishwasher, I can only imagine that it does a longer rinse or something like that to loosen all the dirt? I have no idea why it takes so long, but according to the book, the eco uses way less electricity than the standard programmes. (and significantly less water too!)

all eco cycles are longer ndp

my normal wash is 1hr 55mins but i can click 'extra quick' and its 46mins

i do notice the diff tho, whites are not quite as sparkly
