The whole wash was estimated 72 minutes when it started.

It weighs the clothes by inertia in the beginning, I didn’t overload, and the water (hot and cold) comes in fast through thick pipes, so there’s no excuse for this.

How dumb must the program be to estimate one minute left in the beginning of the rinse cycle with two rinses and a spin cycle to go?

The building and presumably the machine were made 2018, and the maintenance log on the side says many repairs have been made since, so the software must have been updated many times already.

    A clogged drainage filter will make it take longer than anticipated. It’s usually lack of maintenance when these timers get THIS bad.

    But even different materials hold water differently, it’s all an estimate based off of averages. Washing bedding or wool items? Probably gonna be 15% longer.
