Why does my front load washer take so long to wash?

Why does my front load washer take so long to wash?

First, front-load washers don’t fill deeply with water, only to dump it all out a short while later. Rather, they pump in a minimal amount of water (some models use sensors to determine the size of the load). Also, heating the water often takes longer in a front-loader. A sanitation wash cycle takes about two hours.
