    Maintenance is probably the first thing that comes to mind and custom bracket that allows maintenance is just over engineering a simple solution like a hole or just leaving it standing in the same place where the bracket was supposed to be.

    Washing machines are already designed to minimize all the movement it causes. It just isn’t worth the effort to do anything else to it.

      Well, if your machine is still too noisy for your liking, you could…

      • Make sure it isn’t touching any walls or any other objects, especially at the side or back of the machine.

      • Place it on a rubber mat or thick carpet to absorb some of the vibrations.

      • Put noise-absorbing foam panels on the walls and/or ceiling of your laundry room.

      Doing any or all of those may make it significantly quieter, especially when listening to it from outside the room.
