The Front Leveling Foot is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. It is designed to support and stabilize the washer by allowing users to adjust the height and level the appliance on uneven floors. Proper leveling ensures smooth operation and minimizes vibrations and noise during wash cycles.

Causes of a bad Front Leveling Foot can include physical damage from excessive force, wear and tear from frequent adjustments, or corrosion due to exposure to water or laundry chemicals. Over time, these factors can compromise the foot’s ability to maintain stability, leading to operational issues.

Symptoms of a bad Front Leveling Foot include:

  • The washing machine rocking or wobbling during operation
  • Increased vibration and noise
  • The washer being unlevel, affecting wash performance
  • Difficulty in adjusting the foot

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

Questions & Answers

For Whirlpool Front Leveling Foot (Part Number: OEM18044109)

1 Answer

Rich, The leveling legs will just screw into the base of the unit. You tilt the unit and screw in the leg with nut and then once you have it level where you want it then you tighten the nut in order to lock it in place.

W, You really don't want to do that, install wheels on the base of the washer. The movement and vibration from the moving parts and tub are transmitted into the frame, from the frame to the feet, and from the feet to the floor, so the washer would have a tendency to "walk" and vibrate. Besides the rear feet are part of a self leveling, self locking mechanism, and you'd have to modify the assembly to install wheels instead of feet. You may want to rethink this idea.

David, Most likely the leveling legs were removed and the parts that would be needed are the leveling legs WPW10001130 and the nut WP3359452. You will need a total of 4 of each of these.

Tom, This unit would only have leveling legs and not self leveling for the rear. The leveling legs for the washer are part number WPW10001130 and will need 4 of these and 4 locking nuts part number WP3359452. For the dryer you will need 4 of part number 49621.

Mary for Model Number WTW57ESVH1

My husband installed our washer two years ago and I guess didn't put leveling feet on the front, It was level and we had no problems but when we moved it to move in a freezer it made the back to front not level. Can't find the feet that were suppose to come with it. It has leveling feet in the back. I have ordered two front feet from here and it said that they were compatible. Should that work? (Was making a noise after move --that's why we checked it

1 Answer

Hello Mary. The back legs are self leveling. You will pull the top control panel toward you lifting the back legs off the floor, and then set it down. Do this 3 times to level the unit. WPW10001130 is the front feet.

Linda, There should be two(2) self levelling, self locking feet 285244. You'll need to lay the washer on its side or front, and check to see if the feet, are missing, and or if the locking mechanism/base is damaged. Thanks
