I have a Maytag Neptune front load washer that violently shakes and walks during the spin cycle. It is absolutely level, sits on a very solid floor and will do this no matter what size load is washing. We have tried the non-skid pads and it walks right off them. How do I fix this? My maytag neptune front load washer shakes and walks.Please help
SOURCE: Front load washer shakes violently during spin cycle
I had this problem as well.
I called dealer and Maytag.
They made an appointment and stood me up several times.
I finally went to place that sells refrigeration equipment and bought an anti-vibration pad.
It's a 12" square waffle pad used under large equipment to prevent them from vibrating loose on connected piping. I cut it into 4 pieces and put one under each corner of the dryer.
Problem solved, in fact it worked so well that I stacked dryer over washer, placed pads between units and have not had a problem since. I also gained a lot of space in my laundry room as well.

I had the same problem with my Maytag Neptune front load washer. I loved this machine. The clothes came great; very clean & bright and spun 'til almost dry. After abt. a year it started to sound like I had it loaded with rocks instead of clothes and shook violently during the spin cycle.I purchased it from a local appliance store who provided excellent service. After sending a technician twice to repair it, it got progressively worse.Maytag replaced the washer with new one. Again, great machine for the first year. One day during the spin cycle we heard a loud bang and the tub of machine filled with smoke.The technician came out and estimated $600-$700 to repair, IF he could figure out what was wrong. I decided to cut my losses and got rid of the maytag front loader and purchased a Speed Queen top loader. I miss the way the clothes come from a front loader so I am seriously considering purchasing a Bosch. (has anyone had any bad experiences with a Bosch front loader?)
my mah6700aww is jumping everywhere too. I decided it needed locks on the leg flanges --called maytag --bought new legs--they are too small--maytag says these fit my model--but they are the wrong size. I am wondering does anyone have this model washer with draw below?--
could this washer have a different model number seeing that the draw holds the leg flanges--thanks --help
