Washer Dryer Pedestal

Nice work. My wife really appreciates the one I made for her recently as well.

Great idea and well done. With my back I can appreciate the improvement, plus the extra storage space.

Nice job. Have saved this on my favorite to make some time in the future, provided I ever get time to do it. The one thing that I would add is maybe locking rollers. The reason is I do most all our repair work and if I happen to have to repair or replace either of the units it would be easy to roll out and get to back. Now this may cause a problems if the clothes are out of balance and it may want to move.
Thank for the idea and all the instructions.

Nice job! I raised our dryer only. Washer is a top loader. Raised the dryer 8” with a drawer like yours.

Nice work, never understood why people pay 500 dollars for these when you can make them your self. Allot of money for plastic storage bins too look good in a room my guest never go.

Well done.

I like it…thinking of doing something similar..
have you had any issues with the machines moving on that platform? mine move a bit but they sit on the tile floor so no big deal. would not be fun if it fell off the pedestal!
are they anchored in any way ?

The wife has been on me for one of these for years, this looks good.

Tom, I do all my repair work also. But, I needed my son just to heft the washer up 13”. Maybe making One unit for both was a mistake. Seemed practical at the time.
Ken, Bingo! I spent half the cost of one commercial unit! I win.
Pabs, no issues yet. However, the thought did occur to forstner bit a recess for the feet. Or hold the skirting high to create a lip around the perimeter.
Thank you all for the feedback, My wife and I want to put a finished look to our basement laundry room, and this was my step one to get some plumbing issues worked out. After drywall is up I’ll have more cabinets to post on this site.

Nice, gives me many ideas.

-- Live to tell the stories, they sound better that way.

Very good

Nice, my wife wants something very similar

-- Kirby

Kirby- It’s been a couple of weeks in use. No issues to report. If I were to build it again, I could streamline the construction and remain satisfied with the structural strength.
