On starting a spin cycle the machine starts to bang. It's not overloaded!

Could it be the bearings? We have had it 3 years and its used 3/4 times a week?

If so are this easy to fix or would I be better buying a new machine ?

Grateful for any guidance

remove all washing then put your fingers under the stainless inner drum at 6 o clock position and try lifting it up and down vertically.any movement in that direction indicates bearings failed.Big repair and costly to get someone to do it for you.Might be best to buy a new one,Also check concrete weights are secure as they can bang around if they come loose or break off
