Sales people of those front loaders sometimes fail to tell consumers that the front loaders are designed to be on concrete - or otherwise super solid surface. It happened to me.

To solve my issue I got a piece of 1" plywod, glued rubber to the side against the floor and indoor/outdoor carpet to the side that the washer sits on. That did not solve it completely but did make a big difference.

I also, for good measure, attached a ratchet strap around the bottom of it.
