Where to get casters for Haier washer?

[zandperl]

Hi, I'm new here but a friend recommended y'all might be able to help me with my new washer.

I recently purchased a Haier HLP23E (portable washer) through Amazon and love it. Only problem is it doesn't come with casters (wheels). The part number appears to be WD-1500-11, but I'm not sure where to buy them. Sears Parts Direct is asking $26.99 per caster, so over $100 for all four. I found another place selling them for $4.76 each (EncompassParts.com), but I've no clue if they're a reliable company. I'm leaning towards just getting a furniture dolly, but I worry that it may rattle too much while in use, or walk across the floor or off the dolly.

Anyone have thoughts or suggestions? Thanks!

Looks like someone else had the same issue with their Haier.
Here's a photo they uploaded to the Home Depot website.

Compact appliances.com has a Haier caster kit on sale for $40.
These have the built in "brake" so it will keep the washer in place during operation and alleviate your concerns.

**Just a note** I just noticed the caster kit I mentioned above are for a Haier combo.
