I've just moved into a new build property, which came with a new Siemens standalone washing machine installed within a utility cupboard (just on its own, not in a housing). When I moved in I tested it to ensure it was working, and found that it just moves around when it gets to a fast spin cycle.
I'm in discussions with the developer, as it's not really acceptable. They came round, suggesting the machine as at fault (I was dubious), and replaced it that day. But the same thing happens.
They also verified with me that it was level. I've also tried silicon feet and those rubber mats - they help a little, but when it reaches its full speed it just moves all over the place.
So my question is - is there any simple solution to this? My handyman friend suggests they'll need to build a housing for it - but has anyone had any experience of this? Or any ideas what to suggest them to do? It's driving me insane!
