      Sounds like a caveman trying to learn words.
      And why does he have a Scottish twang here and there too.

      @@JemmaGuaney I can think of a few reasons:
      1) Cost. Wheels cost more than rubber or plastic feet.
      2) Balancing. Screw-type feet to level the machine once you emplace it are difficult and/or expensive if you also add wheels.
      3) Cost-benefit. Wheels would be handy during that one time of installation, but appliance dollies have wheels.
      4) Vibration. Particularly in spin cycle, a washing machine can be off-balanced and move around. Wheels, even if locked, would allow more lateral movement than those solid feet.

    I used to repair commercial machines had so many pump jams sometimes they would burn out the pump motor or damage the impeller to the point it was ineffient. In the end i used a endoscope and three jaw flexible grabs removed 80 percent of them without large scale pump dissassembly and could check impeller for sever damage requiring pump replacement.

    It’s a monumental flaw in washing machines that this critical access is located in a place where - for 99% of all people - it can only be used to flood the room. There probably isn’t really an easy solution, though.
