Front-load washer leveling?
I have leveled repeatedly the feet of the washer. It still wants to knock itself across the floor in one of the cycles. Just after the rinse water goes in but before the high speed spin cycle. I can't figure out what to do. It is perfectly plum (level). I reinforced the floor beneath it, I have done everything I can think of. If you have any advice I owuld appreciate it.

If you have it level, reinforced the floor. You have addressed 2 of the most common problems. Is it in a bathroom on a vinyl floor? I have seen talc on the floor cause the same problem. Front loads spin at a much faster speed then top loads. The other thing to check to be sure that you don't have a broken shock. They use shocks instead of springs.
good luck

If everything is level then it's your load that causes imbalance and in turn sets up a vibration. Try running it without a load through the full cycle if it runs ok, without vibration. Then it's the way you load your machine. Redistribute your clothes and try again. Good luck

My washer allows me to choose the speed of the spin. Can you use a slower speed?

load is out of balance . fix some small blocks of wood (or similar) to floor around feet so washer cant move.

If it's brand new and if you installed it yourself, did you remember to remove the shipping bolts?
