After getting my new Lelit MaraX a week ago, I quickly destroyed two of the feet trying to slide the unit out from under the wall cabinets. After doing some research on the web for feet with M5 screw-in posts, I found the following feet on Amazon, which work quite well at a modest cost:

They are made of a reasonably hard plastic, so they should be robust. I was worried that they would be too slippery on the counters, but they're actually just sticky enough to slide easily but not be worried that the unit will go flying off the counter if you bump into it.

Here's another alternative, at a somewhat higher price. Being rubber, they wlll probably be stickier.

My suggestion to the Lelit company people, if you're listening, is to change the feet thread to a larger size, say, an M8. M5 adjustable feet are very hard to find.
