Default Walking washing machcine

I've got a recent model top-loading Maytag washer that has started to rotate
counterclockwise and "walk" in the spin cycle. It happens with small loads
as well as large loads and it doesn't matter if the load consists of big
items like sheets/towels or small stuff-- socks, shirts.

Any ideas for a fix?


Most likely the levelling legs are uneven. This causes the machine to
wobble and therefore "walk". They are quite easy to adjust. Make
sure all four make contact with the floor and then lock the nuts
tight.
