“everytime I wash towels the washer leaks I have had this washer for approximately 6 weeks. First time I did a load of towels on the "bulky" setting there was water all over the floor. Called for repairman. They said the machine was not level when installed so they leveled machine. Did a load of towels last night on "cotton" setting. Half way thru the cycle I noticed that there was water all over the floor again! I dont have time to keep on taking off work to have a repairman come to the house. Any suggestions! So far not impressed with this washer”

We had the same issue after installation, but figured out that it was how the drain hose was angled. It has to come up from the machine and then across, before going into the drain pipe. I think the machine pushes the water out with such high speed that the hose has to be a certain position in order to slow the water down a bit before going into the drain pipe.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I'm not a repair man, but it sounds like the hose isn't connected properly. With our old washer, the hose cracked and about half way through the cycle, our floor would be covered in water. With the new washer and a brand new hose, there hasn't been a leak since.

Ft. 8-Cycle Ultra-large Capacity High-Efficiency Top-Loading Washer - Model # WT1101CW. As simple as it may sound, would you know if the repairman checked the connections for the drain pipe and the water inlets? ^IFV
