A washing machine includes an appliance housing having a front housing part and a rear wall, and includes a washing assembly capable, in an operating mode, of oscillating relative to the appliance housing. The washing assembly includes a washing drum and a suds container enclosing the washing drum. A holding device is attached to the suds container. A shipping protection arrangement including a rod is provided for protecting the suds container against shocks. The rod is connected in a force-locking manner to the washing assembly via the suds container and via the holding device. The holding device includes a through-hole for receiving the rod and includes a plurality of openings forming a plurality of connecting links extending from the through-hole to an edge of the holding device so as to permit elastic, semi-elastic, and/or plastic deformations of the holding device for cushioning of impact energy generated from shocks.
