Electrolux front-load washer vibrates heavily on spin after installation

The problem

A recently installed Electrolux 5.1 front-load washing machine had been vibrating during spin since first use. The owner believed the feet might need adjustment but reported all four corners felt solid on the floor.

Likely cause

The accepted reply suggested the most likely cause was transit packaging not fully removed, which could leave the suspension restricted and cause bouncing on spin. An alternative possibility mentioned was movement on a tiled floor.

What fixed it

Recommended action was to check that all transit packaging had been completely removed. If the machine was installed on a tiled floor, it may need a rubber mat or rubber feet cups to reduce movement. The exact repair carried out was not confirmed.

• Owner checked that all four corners felt solid on the floor
