Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Don't buy this part, just clean out the area around the lint screen. First off, I LOVE my LG washer and dryer. I did however have the same issues as others where the lint trap no longer fit flush in the compartment and I had clothes getting caught and damaged. I thought the screen itself had become warped after being in the dryer so I was going to attempt to buy another one. After reading some great reviews here (Thanks all!) i grabbed a velvet hanger (thinking it will grab lint), removed the screen and gently cleaned the area at the bottom of the lint trap housing. Someone else mentioned disassembling the unit, which seems smart, but this worked well too. I pulled out about a softball size amount of lint! I also found a vacuum cleaner hose with a crevice tool worked well too as I could get it down into the area and vacuumed out even more after manual probing. Just clean your unit, don't buy parts! :) Good to probably clean this out once a year or sol. :)
