If this only happens on quick wash, it could be that this cycle does not spin. I have come across a few washers that do not spin on short or quick wash cycles. If it spins on all other cycles, I would say the machine is OK.
Change the wash settings and the cycle time will change along with the options. Most machines have a 'quick cycle' to shorten wash time, or you can choose "heavy" and "pre-wash" to make an extra long cycle... Depends on the model.
Problem is too much soap. Wrong soap. Press and hold: SPIN SPEED & SOIL LEVEL buttons--then press POWER button.
Wait for door to lock.
Press the START button (6) times--this will fill the tub with hot water to the maximum setting when it stops filling.
Press the START button two more times--this will enable the tub to tumble.
After 3 hours--turn "off" the washer.
Turn the washer back "on".
Select the shortest wash cycle (usually "quick wash") and press "START". This will rinse out the tub.
most washers on a full wash cycle take about 60 minutes. It will take longer if you use a soak cycle with extra minutes because if you have a soak cycle and you set it for 30 minutes the total wash time will be around 1 hour and 30 minutes.
You should have a quick wash on your unit. By using a concentrated washing powder you can do your washing on quick wash mode which most manufacturers set to approximate 30 minutes. In a front loader most clothes can be washed on a quick cycle. Because of the way they wash.
If your washer is a Hotpoint WF430, then the quick wash programme is L.
This is a 30 minute, 30 degree wash.
Trust this is the information you are looking for.

This is really not uncommon. The more and more sophistocated the machines become, the more small decisions they make on their own. I have seen a one hour load take up to 2.5 hours.
If a load is off balanced, it will change the time. If the spin cycle doesn't spin enough water out, it will increase the time, and may still be too wet. (In that case you need to clean out the lint/drain trap.)
If you really want more control and quicker washes, there will be a setting like "Quick wash " or "Fast wash." Theis setting is quite basic and does exactly what you tell it to do, and you can always add and extra rinse, or higher speed cycles.
Kenmores and GEs are the highest reported rate of longer times. Relax. The more you add, ie, delicate, two rinses, light spin, medium dry, the longer it will take. It's just trying to do its job! :)
Hi this could means that you may need to replace the washing machine bearings. Once the bearings are bad, the motor overheats and it will automatically shut down after the first rinse.
