Depends on how full the tub is, the machine determines the wash time by that and your settings. Anyhow, on the average, I would say between 45 to 55 minutes. Mind you, I don't fill the tub completely to the top with clothes. But, that all being said, our 20 year old Maytag used to take about 30 minutes to wash the same amount of clothes and it used about 30 gallons more water to do so, but the big thing is this: In most cases when washing clothes, I would be doing other things and by the time I got done with that and/or I remembered I had done a load of wash, more than an hour had flown by anyhow. LOL! We really like this washer and dryer pair...quiet, efficient and economically priced.
