What are the advantages of adding pedestals to a front load stacked washer dryer?


by DoItYourself Staff

Front load stacked washer dryer combinations have become a popular way to add laundry convenience to a small area. These units have some limitations and problems that can be addressed by the installation of a pedestal.

  • The constant bending and lifting of a front load washer dryer can be greatly reduced by putting them on a raised platform.
  • Washer dryer stacked units not on platforms sit lower to the floor and will require much more bending.
  • Stacked washer dryer units that are raised are also not as accessible to children who might try to climb into a front loading washer dryer.
  • Platforms that match the unit you purchased are available at all appliance retailers.
