Washer is very nosy and jumps around. The washer is only 4 months old. This will be the last time I buy a whirlpool. Washer is noiser and jumps around more than my 15 year old washer. Wish I had never bought this washer.
It could be a few different issues. Check to be sure your washer leveling legs are set correctly. Also many newer washing machines have what they call shocks, stabilizing struts. Those can fail over time and cause your machine to be off balance and walk the floor/vibrate. When is the machine nosey? If when its filling with water it could be a water inlet valve. Or during the spin cycle it could be a drum roller, belt, pulley, Or top bearing glides to name a few things.
Get 2 people.lift it up and adjust the feet on the bottom. wash machings should be as level as possible. sounds like one or two of the feet are not adjusted. Try that. Robert
It may not be the fault of the washer. Check these things:
If your answer to all of these is "yes" you might have a defective washer. It should still be under warranty so call your dealer or call Whirlpool.
Hi, When you installed the washer, did you remove the shipping ******** the back of the washer?
I believe it is a yellow plastic strap.
Another option is to stand in front of the washer ans lift the back up and set it down hard. This wwill readjust and steady the washer.
I hope this helps and please let me know so that I can assist you further.
Thanks

Thank you guys for all the quick responses. I did remove the shipping tags in the rear. One of them broke off half way out and I looked all around for the end of it but could not find it. All the others were removed and the washer is level to the front and back and side to side. I will try rechecking the level.
Thanks again
