Best anti vibration mat for a washing machine

Updated: 23 October 2026

You want one mat to order, and a clear reason to leave the others. Best anti vibration mat for a washing machine, on this page, means the best fit inside this amazon.co.uk set for a job you can name: a full footprint you can slide in, reachable feet on a tight budget, or a sheet you should skip because the listing contradicts itself. It is not a lab winner. Floordirekt, KARAT, WPRO, and ASLON are not in this set, so they are not picks. Rows are on the [anti vibration mat comparison](/hub/diy-supplies/anti-vibration-mat).

What best means here

There is no decibel number on these listings, so best cannot mean the quietest machine in Britain. You need rubber you can get under the cabinet, a title and a size field that describe the same object, and UK reviews of a washer or dryer that also name what still went wrong. A 5.0 from one review fails that test. A shared pool of 3,042 reviews cannot be counted twice. Transit bolts and level feet come first. That order is on the washing machine anti vibration mat buying guide.

A thick sheet when you can slide the machine

The top pick for a full footprint is the Mario10 sheet at 60 × 60 × 1 cm, about £30.99, 3.68 kg, 4.2 from 1,151 reviews. The size lines agree, and the bullets say it can be cut. Skip it with no spare 10 mm, or if you cannot pull the machine forward. One dryer water-collector door would not open. One buyer returned it when neighbours below heard no change. The 20 mm Mario10 sheet, about £39.99 and 5.84 kg, is a worse default unless you have help and a measured gap. A machine walked off a sheet that was only just the footprint, and the title does not say cut to size. Loxley at 8 mm, about £27.99, is the lesser lift, with a 5-year bullet against a 2-year field and a brand field that says Generic.

Four pads when the slot is tight

Best value is the FUX set: four 90 × 90 × 15 mm recycled-rubber pads, about £6.49, 4.2 from 375 reviews on this ASIN. A washer stopped walking out from under a bench when the pads sat under the feet. One person put them beside the feet, so the corners were not supported. Buy FUX when you can reach the feet. It is not a promise about the flat below. LouMaxx at 10 × 10 × 1.5 cm and about £7.99 shares its 3,042 opening reviews with the 1 cm listing at about £6.99. The dimensions field says 20 × 20 cm. Do not add the two counts.

Skip these until the listing is clear

Paxanpax has 4.2 from 2,962 reviews at about £13.50, and UK texts describe a washer that stopped walking on a suspended floor. The title says 6 mm and the thickness field says 3 cm. The brand field says acerto, the country field says China, and the bullets say made in Germany. Leave it if you need one thickness you can quote. haomeiduo at about £13.99 is titled Sorbothane and described as EVA. Yattuyix is 5 mm PVC at about £11.99 with one review. Veyera is 5 mm at about £12.60 with no review line. Five millimetres is the wrong answer to a machine that already walks.

Common questions

Which mat is the top pick for a washer that walks?
The Mario10 60 × 60 × 1 cm sheet, at about £30.99 with 4.2 from 1,151 reviews, if you can slide it in and you have about 10 mm of spare height. UK reviews describe less walking on tile and on suspended wood. They also say the spin is reduced, not removed, and that the extra height can block a dryer door. Level the feet and remove the transit bolts first.
What is the best value if you only have about £7?
The FUX four-pack at about £6.49, 15 mm, 4.2 from 375 reviews. Reviewers report a washer that stopped walking when the pads sat under the cabinet. They also say fitting is fiddly. LouMaxx at about £6.99 or about £7.99 shares one review file across two thicknesses, so it is the weaker of the two cheap options if you want reviews that match the pad you receive.
Are LouMaxx pads a pick or only a cheap trial?
A trial. The 15 mm set is about £7.99 and the 10 mm set is about £6.99, and both show 3,042 reviews that are the same opening texts. Washer comments are mixed, including “no difference”. Use them if you accept that limit. Use FUX if you want a cheap pad set with its own review file.
Why is a 5.0-from-one-review sheet not the winner?
Yattuyix has one UK review and a 5 mm PVC sheet at about £11.99. One positive sentence cannot show how the mat behaves on a walking machine, a dryer door, or a wooden floor. Veyera has no review line at the same thickness. A high star on a tiny count is not a top pick beside listings with hundreds of washer comments.
What should you skip when the listing contradicts itself?
Skip Paxanpax until you can live with a title of 6 mm and a field of 3 cm, and skip haomeiduo until the material is one material. Sorbothane in the title and EVA in the bullets are not a minor wording gap. The comparison table keeps both lines. This page does not average them into a recommendation.
