I bought a Miele washig machine last year. It was a little more expensive than I'd planned to spend but i'd heard that they were really good quality.

It is the heaviest washing machine that i've ever owned, which is about 5 over the last 21 years of marriage.

I am a maintenance technician and have always installed and plumbed in my own machines with no problem.

This thing just shakes my kitched to pieces when it's in a final spin. I have levelled the feet and know they are all tight and making good contact with the floor , but still it shakes, rattles and rolls.

The machine is placed in a corner over a suspended chipboard floor, with crawl space uderneath. I've already glued and screwed and extra layer of plywood underneath it , bringing the local floor thickeness up to 36mm, but still it vibrates...

any advice

If it is a problem that has just developed then I would suspect there is a problem with the damping, if you only bought it last year I would have thought they would have done it under warranty.
