I have been noticing when I do a load of laundry . The washtub leans forward. The larger the load the more the basket leans. I checked with a level and the machine is fine. Should I be worried, should I have the washer looked at? HELP PLEASE.

It is completely normal for the tub to lean forward, and usually to the right. Mine did this too, and so does everyone else's. No need for concern or a service call. I just center the tub before putting the next load in. I believe it's caused by the powerful torque this machine has.

Ditto

Mine does it too. So does my dad's. No worries.

No worries

It is normal behavior and the tub always rights itself before and after spin. My washer is six years old!

My technician was actually at my house for another issue and noticed my tub leaning more to the right which was causing the water in the tub to be uneven all around during washing cycles. He therefore actually unleved the ouside housing which created the tub to be more centered. It is about 97% centered now, however the water is now even all around during agitation. That was what he wanted to create happen. He told me that its more important for the tub and water to be even rather that the outside housing. I actually also contacted speed queen and they told me as well that the tub should be centered. I know that many people's actually lean because I have watched you tubes. Since I saw that so many have the same issue I didn't call a repair man for that issue. Once he was at my house for rattling issues he himself noticed that issue. Hope this helps you.
