Whirlpool Dryer Stacking Kit (W10869845)

The Whirlpool Dryer Stacking Kit mounts a dryer securely on top of a compatible washer to create a stable stacked laundry setup. The brackets and hardware keep both machines aligned and reduce shifting during operation. It is used when converting from side-by-side placement to a vertical stack. Failure is most often due to loose hardware, missing pieces from a past move or install, or bent brackets from impact or repeated shifting. Rust or stripped fasteners can also prevent the kit from holding the dryer firmly in place. If your laundry pair will not stay aligned or feels unstable, these symptoms can help you decide if this part addresses the problem: Dryer slides, rocks, or shifts on top of the washer Visible gaps or misalignment between the washer and dryer after stacking Rattling or clunking sounds that come from the stack during spinning or tumbling Mounting brackets are bent, cracked, or missing Screws will not tighten, or hardware is missing or corroded
