Yes, it does. Oh, did you want to know more about how Silent Feet stop appliance walking? Each set of our Original Silent Feet feature two ultra-sticky anti-walk front feet. These feet are designed to anchor your appliance in place without glues, adhesives or fasteners. The unique high friction properties of the base material in the front feet lock the feet to the floor using only the weight of the appliance. This means that you can easily move the appliance in the future during servicing or replacement without damaging your floor.

Have you got a serious appliance walking problem? Check out our information about different levels of appliance vibration first, but then consider Anti-Walk Silent Feet. These feet sacrifice some of the ease of installation in exchange for using all four feet as friction anchor points. These feet are only recommended for extreme cases of appliance walking.

Attention: Because Silent Feet use friction instead of adhesives, dust, dirt and debris under the feet can cause a reduction in the total friction and result in appliance walking. However, simply sweeping or vacuuming up dirt and dust and then washing Silent Feet in water can fully restore their ability to prevent appliance walking.

The answer all depends on what type of appliance problem you want solved? Silent Feet work great for a significant number of problems such as:

Constant mechanical vibration and noise transfer

Mild to moderate irregular vibration

Appliance walking and unwanted lateral movement

Structural damage prevention

2nd story appliance installation

Appliance chatter caused by uneven floors

Besides just working for these problems Silent Feet can also help to make appliances more accessible by slightly raising their height (1/2"). Click here to find out if Silent Feet will work with your appliance. Silent Feet even work if you have a pedestal or flood pan under your appliance. Even in the worst of appliance vibration and walking situations Silent Feet may still provide a degree of vibration and noise reduction. Click here to diagnose your vibration problem in detail.

The most Silent Feet will add to the height of your washer is 5/8 inch. However, the weight of the washing machine will cause between 20-30% compression in the Sorbothane material which often results in only about 1/2 inch of additional height.

NO! Silent Feet are made of an advanced visco-elastic material which is not rubber. It is also not a Styrofoam like material that may either not absorb the vibration you require or break down over time. Sorbothane retains it's vibration absorbing properties after millions of cycles unlike other materials which can degrade after just a few thousand cycles. As mentioned in the “what is Sorbothane” section Silent Feet are made of a patented, one of a kind material, the same vibration reducing material trusted by NASA and NASCAR. (Yes NASA the space exploration people and yes NASCAR the National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing)

Yes, simply place the Silent Feet under the pedestal feet. We recommend Anti-Walk Silent Feet for use with pedestals.

Yes, simply install the Silent Feet in the pan between the pan and the washing machine.

The Vibration Solution, LLC defines "Lifetime" as the industry average for the effective useful operational life of a washing or drying laundry appliance. Current estimates place this somewhere between 8 and 10 years. Therefore our warranty lasts for 10 years after the original purchase of your Silent Feet.

The vibration dampening elastic material in Silent Feet is designed to last for millions of cycles. It should easily last significantly longer than the 10 year warranty period. However, if at any time during the first 10 years the material begins to crumble, seep, crack significantly or otherwise seriously degrade your Silent Feet may qualify for a complete replacement free of charge.

All warranty claims require a copy of the original purchase receipt to verify the age of the Silent Feet. The Vibration Solution, LLC also requires that you send your Silent Feet to our warranty department for analysis. This analysis process is designed to help us continuously improve our products to provide you with the best designs and solutions possible.

Yes, Silent Feet can easily handle the increased load and vibration created by stackable washers and dryers. You will not void the warranty on Silent Feet products by using them with stackable units. However, we recommend that you use Anti-Walk Silent Feet as stackable units have a higher center of gravity which increases their tendency to move or "walk" across you laundry room.

The exterior of your washing machine can be cleaned with a mild detergent solution or all-purpose cleaner. Sponge and rinse any detergent residue or build-up off regularly. If you have problems with hard water, use a little water softener with the detergent to remove any built-up scale. The inside of the washer is best cleaned by running an empty full cycle of cold water and adding 2 cups of vinegar before the wash cycle begins.
