Abstract: An apparatus for treating laundry includes a cabinet and a drum. The cabinet includes a base panel, a support panel fixed to the base panel, and a fixed panel fixed to the base panel. The drum includes a cylindrical drum body and a drum entrance defined at a front cover of the cylindrical drum body. The apparatus further includes a support panel perforated hole defined at the support panel and in communication with the drum entrance, a drum connecting body provided at the support panel and connecting the support panel perforated hole to the drum entrance, and a drive part. The drive part includes a stator configured to generate a rotating field, a rotor configured to be rotated by the rotating field, and a power transmission part that is fixed to the fixed panel and that is configured to transmit a rotational motion of the rotor to the drum.
