"Perfect fit replacement part for my dryer."
"The functionality is about as expected if you are needing a quality replacement filter screen."
"So, maybe whirlpool made a design change which included felt to help secure the fit of the screen."
"Had to glue felt in as another reviewer suggested since that was the problem with lint filter that came with brand new dryer."
"When I first got this screen I worried that it was such a tight fit."
"Felt material around the edge does not stick out from the plastic frame far enough to make a good seal."
"Not happy with the dryer screen."
Part Note: Due to a design change, this part also requires part numbers MEA49050001 (Filter Guide) and MCK66787901 (Filter Cover). Refer to your manual to ensure ordering the correct, compatible part. Refer to your manual to ensure ordering the correct, compatible part.

"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 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."
"To fix the clothes snagging problem take out a couple of screws and remove the screen holder assembly from the dryer to get access to stick a vacuum crevice tool in and clean out built up lint that prevents the screen from going all the way down."
"Purchased this after the filter that was in my dryer caught on some clothes and ripped to pieces."
"I noticed there was a lot of lint stuck inside, so I removed it with whatever tool I had at the moment, which was a long stick back scratcher."
"When this product is paired with LG Electronics MEA49050001 Dryer Lint Filter Frame/Guide and LG Electronics MCK49049101 Dryer Lint Filter Cover it makes a complete lint filter kit for my dryer model DLEX2801W."
"This unit did the trick, and now I,m a lot gentler with it."
"The dryer that we had before this LG model lasted for many, many years, and the lint filter never had to be replaced."

"This is just what I needed for my dryer!"
"Fits perfectly an LG dryer we purchased from a used and refurbished appliance store."
"This is my second time replacing the lint filter on my LG dryer because the felt-like trim surrounding the filter separates from the plastic frame."
"I waited a while after receiving this filter to write the review because I read that others dont think it wears that well."
"Was very pleased to find this to fit in my dryer-fits well, better than the original, and it is easy to roll lint off with just a couple of fingers."
"Perfect fit and a nice replacement for the one that was in the dryer, to begin with."
"also, re the "two screws" design flaw in the dryer that tears the felt can be fixed by just removing the screws."

We experimented with various filters and determined the following after installing the vent and weighting the change your filter door as per the instructions: (1) The changeable filters that comes with the vent are too lightweight and almost impossible to clean. (2) I next tried a 3/4 inch thick washable filter cut from a a/c filter (about the same thickness as the filters that came with the vent) - and while it was easier to clean, the change your filter door popped up after 6 loads - with a moderate amount of lint in the filter. (3) I next tried a 1/4 inch thick washable a/c filter - which was the easiest to clean, and the change your filter door didn't pop up until 10 loads - or a week of laundry. The pictures below are of the installation in the garage with the change your filter door popped up, and the metal filter and 1/4 inch a/c filter after 10 loads (1 week) of laundry. Filters in picture: 1) The green filter is from the cheapest whole house a/c filter my husband could find. 2) The black filter is a foam window unit a/c filter, about 1/8 inch thick - it was the cheapest and worked as well as the green filter - about 10 loads. The 1/2 inch thick one worked as poorly as the one provided by the manufacturer of the dryer vent. 4) The white/blue filter is the one provided by the manufacturer - I got the least amount of loads with it (it and the 1/2 inch blue filter) - and it really isn't very washable."
"It mounts to the wall, and the door is easily opened to be able to clean the screen and filter."
"The filters are easy to change when necessary."
"The heat from the drier gets reused where we need it, it gives just the right amount of moisture in the air, and i dont have to worry about the ouside venting clogging up!"
"great way to supplement heat even up here in pacific northwest. I found that our furnace evaporates so much moisture that any extra is welcome for my hardwood floors, etc..."
"This gadget is great."
"Best thing to hit the market, do away with those water holder for your lint, this is the best answer and keeps everything clean in the room that you dry."
"This dryer vent works great!"

I called around and was quoted about $300 for the install -- Which seemed expensive, but there were very few 'Samsung Authorized' repair shops in my area, and most places wanted diagnosis fees and crap... I actually found a video online where someone does the install from the back of the dryer, but that is not needed. The tricky part is pulling the element box out, and making sure the thermostats get connected back properly. This will make it so if the element is not the problem, you can re-assemble and call an expert and save yourself some time). 5. You don't wanna mix those up, and the metal screws can split the plastic. Check all of your exhaust piping, and make sure the vent flap outside is not stuck/clogged (Which mine was). If there is a lot of lint inside your dryer, it's most likely a blockage issue The reason these elements are prone to burning out is the amount of airflow needed to keep them cool. Anyone find it aggravating that they have a "Smart" dryer, yet it's too dumb to tell you that the element is burnt out?"
"I did take the time to clean the lint out of the inside of the dryer off the sensors and also cleaned the exhaust and checked the belt The dryer upon start up heated up noticably hotter. Its probaly a good thing that the old element burned out as there was a high possiblity that this dryer could have caught on fire. Evan when cleaning the lint filter after every load the dryer still had alot of lint inside it especially around the sensors and heater."
"I used this element to repair my Sansung electric dryer."
"This thing ranged from $50-$70 (and higher) direct from a variety of parts retailers, so I was pleasantly surprised to find this particular item for sale on Amazon in the $20 range."
"We installed this 2 months ago and it's still going good."
"showed up on-time and worked great in my 4 year dryer."
