After reviewing the comments I was a bit hesitant to start this project but then I realized I will build then make my own opinion. I am very happy I did because these pedestals are sooo wonderful and beautiful. This project must be built with extreme detail and everything must be square, etc to avoid any vibrations and complications. I did include extra center supports and thought of it like building a house frame.

Good Job
Looks solid! Did you follow the plans? We have a samsung front load washer / dryer as well. It's not the same as yours, but we have a hard time keeping it from moving around. We have tried making it as level as possible but still have a problem. Did you find by putting it on a pedestel that you had any issues? I was thinking maybe if I did build a pedestel, I could drill or recess holes on the platform for the feet to go in to prevent it from shifting around. Let me know your thoughts, thanks.

Follow up "Good Job"
Hello - Yes we did follow Ana's plan with some minor modifications. My suggestion would be to knotch it like a corner deck post so the 4x4's can go through the platform. If you don't understand I will happy to forward you a drawing. Just let me know. Thank you! Good luck!
