Steady Spin Washing Machine Anti-Vibration Stabilizer Pad

Product Information

Leveling: Washers have self- or manual-leveling feet. It's important, when first setting up a machine, to ensure that all four feet are adjusted and the washer is level. Usually, the feet turn to adjust, but self-leveling feet have a different mechanism, and you may have to slightly lift the machine to level and for the incorrect foot to self-adjust. Use a level to ensure accuracy. However, this will only occur if you do not rectify the problem, as any damage will take a long time to develop.

Hard rubber : It is the cheapest material that can absorb vibration. Rubber is an elastic material, also known for creating a damping effect.

Add a few more items to your laundry if you're only washing a few pairs of garments or something hard to even out the load. Installing anti-vibration pads for washing machines underneath your washer and dryer can be a very effective method of curtailing the vibration. But what is making these appliances vibrate so much to begin with?

Your washer may look level to the blind eye, but even the slightest imbalance could be causing the issue.

Some types of washers create less vibration than others by their design. Front-load washer vibration is generally worse than top load washing machine vibration. Modern machines also make less noise than older models since they employ new technology that’s designed to vibrate less. Sometimes, your washing machine will vibrate and make loud noises even when there is nothing wrong. This typically only happens when you are using a high spin speed. For front loaders, the positioning of your laundry is less important, but you still need to bulk up your load if you’re washing a single heavy item. For example, add an extra towel even if you only need to clean one.
