Abstract

The washing machine comprises a sensor (8) adapted to detect the displacement of the oscillating assembly (2) and arranged between a vibration-damping strut (3) of said oscillating assembly and the framework (5) of the machine, upstream of the support feet thereof, so as to be able to sense the variations in the weight of the oscillating assembly in a manner that is independent of the braking force of the vibration-damping strut (3) and the weight of the machine.
