Product review (2 stars): Vibration
After 6 months of use we were fortunate that Sears would take this washer back. The vibration on the spin cycle was moderate to severe. Even after I reinforced the floor under the washer twice and confirmed the washer was level the vibration was loud and unacceptable. If you are looking to buy a front load washer take the advise of Consumer Reports and others, you must have a concrete ground floor to set it on or a be willing to rebuild your floor to the point where it is as sturdy as concrete. To be fair to Bosch, I did a lot of research into this problem and discovered that vibration issues is common to most front load machines. Otherwise the wash seemed to perform well, but because of the load and balance problem we could never fully determine just how well it performed.
