Silent Feet Eliminates Washing Machine Vibration

Sunday, November 15th, 2009

I was on business in southern Florida a couple weeks ago, so I decided to stop by my uncle’s house and see how things were going.

I had a great time, and I traded stories on life and business with him. During our conversation, my aunt had started a load of laundry. My uncle lives in a large house, but noises travel fairly far due to the house structure. As I was conversing with him, I began to hear this loud noise.

I sounded like banging and rattling throughout the house. It was incredibly annoying and prevented us from fully concentrating on our conversation.

I asked my uncle if this was a regular occurrence, and he said the washing machine vibration had this effect on the house. Whenever they turned on the washer, the washing machine vibration would cause issues and the loud noises would make daily living intolerable for them. I was going to be in town for a week, so I promised to try and find some sort of solution to his problem.
During my search for a solution, I determined that I did not want to have my uncle buy a new washer and dryer. I felt that would be an unneeded expense that could possibly be avoided if I could find the right tools. My first stop during my search was to look online for any solutions.

I had discovered that most washers will reach this stage after many years of use. If it was still under warranty, then the manufacturer would provide a solution to the problem. In most cases, the warranty has already expired when the noises begin to occur. I found that many families opted to purchase a product called Silent Feet to eliminate their noises.
According to what I found online, the Silent Feet will eliminate the washing machine vibration because of the polymers used in its main component.

Sorbothane is used to disperse the shock waves that are emitted from the washer. These shockwaves caused the noise I heard at my uncle’s home. I decided that it was worth the risk to purchase this product to try and fix my uncle’s problem.

It had a lifetime warranty, so I was not worried about the durability of the product. According to customer reviews, there did not seem to be durability issues, but the lifetime warranty definitely eased my concerns.

Once I installed the Silent Feet, my uncles issues with his washer disappeared. He no longer hears the banging or rattling whenever he does laundry.

Eliminate Annoying Washing Machine Noise

Monday, November 9th, 2009

I enjoy my peace and quiet. I am extremely productive when I have the time to think things through and enjoy my time alone.

Any outside noises usually keep me from performing my work on an optimal level, so I try to keep my home quiet. I have many older appliances that I have never had many issues with. One issue that I have encountered has been my older washing machine.

Much to my disappointment, the parts to my old washer were no longer available because the manufacturer had been out of business for multiple years. The washing machine noise hindered my work, so I needed to find a suitable alternative to my machine.

I could not afford to purchase a new machine because I could not afford to do so in my current financial situation. I decided that I needed to find an alternative to fix my washing machine noise.
I went online and performed a web search for a suitable alternative to purchasing a new washer. I did not want to try numerous products in hope that I would finally find something that worked. I needed to find some products and do ample research on them. My search brought me to a product called Silent Feet.

According to my research, Silent Feet is the number one noise reduction pad available for washing machines. It replaces the previously worn out parts in your washer.

The material is made of similar substances used by NASA, so I felt confident that this could be a worthwhile product. I decided to look into the product more and see if I should purchase it for my home.
My main concern was the ease of installment for the product. I thought it would be a difficult procedure, so I searched for an installation guide. To my surprise, installation was extremely easy. The set comes with two easy-slide rear pads and two super-sticky front pads.

I would simply need to pull the appliance out of its spot and place the two easy-slide Silent Feet pads under the washer’s rear feet and slide it back in place. The next step was to lift the front of the appliance and place the two super-sticky pads under the front feet.

Once I completed these steps, my installation would be complete. I decided to order the Silent Feet in order to see if it would help me eliminate my washing machine noise.

Make Others Happier With a New Washing Machine Pad

Friday, November 6th, 2009

I live in a small apartment complex that provides a communal laundry service. The laundry room is conveniently located down the hall from my apartment.

The machines themselves look to be over fifteen years old, and there was obvious wear and tear. Whenever someone on my floor decided to do laundry, everyone on the floor would be able to tell because the machine made always made noise.

The washing machine pad had been worn down because of continuous use, so the washer rattled extremely loudly whenever someone did their laundry. The landlord claimed that he had replaced the washing machine pad, so he did not offer to make any changes. This angered most of the tenants, but there was really nothing we could do as tenants.
The washing machine was sitting on concrete, so I thought that purchasing a carpet to have the washer sit on might eliminate the sound. To my disappointment, the landlord was not willing to purchase a carpet because he refused to believe there was any problem.

Unable to enjoy my afternoons at home, I purchased a carpet to place underneath the washing machine. My idea was to use the carpet to lower the rattling noise that the machine made while it was running. I was not sure if carpet would be enough to prevent the noise, but I felt it was worth a try.

To my dismay, the carpet only helped reduce the noise slightly. There was still a loud rattling noise whenever the machine was running. I looked online to see if there was any way I could eliminate the noise. I was able to find that numerous companies offered new bottoms for washers to help eliminate the noise they make.
I was interested in purchasing these bottoms to eliminate the noise from the washer. It was a low cost option that had a lifetime warranty and proved to be one of the most successful products on the market. This accessory was called Silent Feet made by Vibration Solution.

Like the name implies, these are “feet” for the washer that will eliminate the loud noises made during operation. This washing machine pad was the answer to our problems.

Once I installed the pads, I no longer had to deal with the rattling of my washer. I was extremely happy, and to this day, it has made our apartment complex much more appealing to live in.

Sunday, October 25th, 2009

Washing machines lose their cool. In fact, they can get downright feisty, throwing temper tantrums like two year olds needing a nap. As washing machines wear out, their internal dampening systems naturally wear out; causing rampant shaking and washing machine noise every time you do laundry. This can be very disruptive, shaking the house and rattling the vents, even if the washing machine is buried downstairs. For machines on higher levels of the house, the problem can be even worse; causing the whole house to shake like the foundation is rattling loose.

A disruptive washer is more than aggravating. It can cause serious damage to a home, scarring and marring wood and tile floors, leaving permanent marks that can make a home harder to sell later. Aside from washing machine noise, a shaking washer can cause lasting damage that’s expensive to fix.

Yet there’s something you can do about it. All you need is a simple attachment. Washing machine pads can be put on a washing machine to absorb the vibrations and the washing machine noise, quelling the shaking to a soft hum that’s as peaceful as it was when it was new.

Cut Washing Machine Vibration with an Easily Affordable Solution

Monday, August 17th, 2009

Does your washer like to walk around at night? Are you constantly heaving it back into place after it’s almost slept walked away from the wall? Does your washer seem to need its own leash?

Washers tend to move as a result of excessive washing machine vibration. As machines wear out, their absorption qualities wear down, causing it to shake and rumble. The movement is kinetic as the vibration causes the machine to “walk” away from the wall. This leaves you every laundry day heaving it back against the wall, risking your back as well as your patience.

There are solutions short of chaining your washing machine down, but it all depends on how excessive the walking is. The key is to reduce washing machine vibration through absorbing feet. The question you have to ask yourself is how much does the washer walk? If it’s severe enough, you might want to opt for feet that are designed to stop washer machine walk. In addition to absorbing the noise, feet specialized for washing machines that walk are more securely fastened to the washer.

How well the feet work comes down to which feet you buy. Do yourself a favor and skip the hardware store. They have many cheap possibilities, but they are usually made from poor materials, don’t absorb energy as well and wear out quicker. Few even claim they are designed to stop washer machine walk, and even fewer live up to the promise.

Silent Feet, however, are made from scientifically enhanced durable polymers that will last a lifetime. In fact, they are some of the only feet on the market that are backed by a lifetime guarantee. These things can last for life. If they wear out in the first decade, they can be replaced for free.

Their unique design is also easily assembled. You can have them attached to your washer in six easy in six easy steps, turning your afternoon project into a few minutes of productivity that leaves you with the rest of the afternoon to yourself. You can get back to watching the ball game in peace, knowing your house will be quiet and calm no matter when you have to do laundry.

Cheaply Reduce Washing Machine Noise

Tuesday, August 11th, 2009

I had tried everything. I crammed pillows between the wall and the washing machine, trying to reduce the aggravating washing machine noise that seemed to rampage through the entire house. I placed rags under the washer. I even improvised a foam pad. Although it was a concerted effort, it ended in failure. The machine still shook up the whole house. You always knew when someone was doing laundry. In fact, if we did a load before bed, it would be hard to sleep at night. The washer just seemed to vibrate through the walls.

I was about to break down and spend the money on a new washing machine. Over coffee one day, I complained about it to a friend at work. There were a lot of other things I’d needed money for- clothes for the kids, maybe eve a small family vacation, but it just seemed like I’d have to waste it all on a brand-new washing machine.

Boy, was I ever glad I griped about it. My friend told me he had the same problem, but solved it for the price of a minor repair. In fact, my friend said it was so easy to do he didn’t need any tools. He bought washing machine noise reducing feet that worked incredibly effectively and had it installed in a few minutes. A repair my friend feared would take the entire afternoon had him watching the game and drinking a beer before anybody even scored.

He explained that a new product, Silent Feet, had been introduced to the market. It wasn’t widely available in hardware stores, but its popularity was growing. He suggested I look for it on the Internet. While there are many noise reducing feet on the market, these were far above the best. They were made from durable, highly specialized polymers designed to absorb noise as well as to last. Plus, they had a innovative design that allowed them to be easily attached to the washer without any tools. Not only that, but the feet are guaranteed for life. For less than $40, they may last longer than your washing machine.

I tried it and was sold. The feet were easily attached. I soon found myself with a whole afternoon to myself. The machine then ran like a dream, a perfect hum you’d only hear in the laundry room. My family now has peace and quiet, and we can run the washer anytime we’d like. I’m so glad I fixed the problem without having to buy a new washer.

Purchasing a Washing Machine Pad

Friday, July 24th, 2009

There are several advantages to purchasing a washing machine pad from Vibration Solutions to place underneath your unit. I had been having several problems with my machine and I was looking for a solution. These problems seemed to only be getting worse and I was concerned that I would need to purchase an entirely new unit, which was really not in my budget. I decided to see if I could find other helpful alternatives that could alleviate some of the problems that I was having with my machine.

When washing heavier loads or using the heavy duty cycle, I noticed that the entire machine would shake quite violently. The vibrating noises were amplified after resonating off of the dryer and the ceramic floor. I was worried that the tiles would eventually crack. Sometimes when the vibration would be especially loud the lid to the machine also started to slightly bounce open splashing water out. This problem started occurring more frequently and it even began happening when I was washing regular loads. I could only do my laundry when my kids were at school because otherwise the machine would be interrupting their sleep, homework time, or dinner. I knew that I needed to find another solution.

I started scouring the internet for some advice. After searching through several websites and blogs written by people that were experiencing the same types of problems that I was, I decided to purchase a washing machine pad from Vibration Solutions to see if I could eliminate any of these problems. The pad was composed of a special material that would assist in absorbing the vibrations while protecting my floor underneath. There was an oversized washing machine pad that was available that would also protect my floor from any splashing water. The colors of these pads were neutral and they would fit into my décor. I had my fingers crossed that they would be the ultimate solution to my problems and that I would not have to buy another machine.

The pad arrived within a few days and I was very eager to try it out. I had been waiting to wash a load of beach towels and I figured now would be the perfect time. Within minutes I laid the pad out and started the machine. I could not believe the huge difference! My machine stayed in place the entire time and I hardly even noticed when the spin cycle began or ended. What a great product!
