You'll find there're holes in the back of the machine, and the machine would've come with wall-brackets - they're usually attached to the wall, they're just big hooks & you hang your machine off them like it's a lovely piece of laundry-art. If you don't still have them (I doubt we have ours), wonder if the manufacturer's parts department can get their hands on those brackets? [This is largely out-loud musing ... we'll probably want to mount our machine up high, so we can use the floor-space ] I find it rather odd that your builder would even consider mounting the machine on a cabinet of some sort rather than just fixing it to the wall. Thanks Again everyone for your comments - our builders have priced the cabinets but I suspect they haven't considered the use / weight of the appliances and even so wouldn't be liable so perhaps they don't really care Forg - I didn't realise the bit about brackets - I am going to look at the back of our front loader this evening when I get home and see if there are holes (we definately didn't get brackets) and then if I can buy the brackets as you suggested. Next quetsion then - as the wall the laundry backs onto is the wall in the theatre room where a wall mounted TV will be - what do you all think about a double thickness wall? Will a single brick wall be strong enough to support the appliances on one side and the TV on the other?
