The duration of a dishwasher cycle can vary based on the type of cycle selected and the model of your appliance. Knowing how long each cycle takes allows you to manage your kitchen tasks efficiently and ensures that your dishes are cleaned to your satisfaction. Here’s a quick guide to help you understand the differences:
- How long does a dishwasher cycle take? Standard dishwasher cycles typically last between 1.5 to 2.5 hours. This can vary depending on the load size and the specific cycle chosen.
- How long does a dishwasher take on eco? Eco-friendly cycles are designed to save on energy and water, which usually means they take longer(1). On average, an eco cycle can take anywhere from 2 to 4 hours.
- How long does a dishwasher take to wash on a quick cycle? For a quick wash, many dishwashers offer a faster option that can take as little as 30 to 60 minutes. However, for a thorough clean, especially with heavily-soiled dishes, a longer cycle may be more effective.
Understanding these timings can help in planning your dishwashing around your schedule and energy-saving goals.
