How are you suppose to balance an unbalance wash load in the washing machine?

Question

Of course its open the machine and rearrange the clothes, but i do that. And it still is unbalanced, even with half a load in the drum, it still makes itself unbalanced again. Washing less than half a load is not an option, since that would be a waste of time. Someone help thanks.

Answer 1

to expand esmereldas comment, most washers are equipped with s***w down caster feet that can be adjusted to redistribute the weight of the machine.

Answer 2

Is the machine new? Maybe the legs need to be leveled. They usually s***w in and out. You need someone to help you with that and you should use a level on the top of the washer to see how you are doing with the leveling. Or if its not new, maybe the floor has shifted a little.

Answer 3

sounds as if one of the rubber mounts on the drum have let go!!!

Does it do this alot??? even with like  ummm small loads???

How old is the machine? what kind of washer???? I'm guessing top load!!??

So you see you need to have it looked at because I think the Mount is broken that helps hold the drum in the spin cycle!!!

Answer 4

All of these are good answers , but are the clothes sorted ?

If you have different materials ( 12 t-shirts and one pair of jeans) it will never balance.

Answer 5

You are either not rearranging the clothes sufficiently or you may have a problem with your machine and you'll need to have it checked.

Answer 6

Get a level out and see if the machine is sitting on the level.  If it is way off, you probably need to adjust the feet.

Any time the machine gets far off level, you will have the problem of unbalanced loads no matter how full or light they are.
