It should be a crime that dryers are so poorly engineered that one needs to MacGyver solutions using paint stirrers, microfiber wrapped screwdrivers, and coat hangers to clean the vents. Seriously, wth?!

[@rosynessrose6556]

I agree 💯 this is so dangerous!!!

[@paulatiredofthisshit]

It's a racket I guess. They probably get kickbacks from the repair companies.

[@michaelgoldman1532]

And why the hell aren’t the narrow hose attachments that come with a vaccuum at least like a foot long? Flexible? I mean come on… what are we doing as a species??? Would’ve made this whole thing so much easier.

[@snipertheking8432]

they probably do it on purpose so then people will call the maintenance just to clean the vents while the price of just cleaning it will be alot

[@F16_viper_pilot]

@@randomgurse They have….it’s called “buy a new dryer”🤣 I did find a vacuum cleaner attachment that can slide down the filter slot.

[@DaleRussell2]

Great video. How about the dryer vent cleaning kit with the hose that attaches to the vacuum! Also, people need to clean the exit screen - where it leaves the house! This can get packed with lint also and needs to be cleared! (More video ideas for ya!)

[@allimimi]

I like that you actually had a lot of lint! Some of these vids don’t show the real deal. Under my lint trap looked just like yours. Good tips, thx 🙏🏽

[@JEMYSTICAL]

I greatly appreciated your video ☺️. Your tips and tactics helped immensely!!! You touch on such important details for home safety regarding our dryer. This was a much-needed video thank you so very much 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️

[@michaelgoldman1532]

Good god the amout of crap I cleaned out of my lint trap after watching this video was EMBARASSING. Hopefully I won’t burn down the house! Great video!

[@StephanieMarie_89]

I need the updated video on taking apart the dryer and deep cleaning it like you’ve mentioned you’d do

[@TheWorld_2099]

That’s what I need right now….

[@bricks312100]

Clean your lint traps before half way thru and after using the dryer. Completly clean any and all dryer vent sections spring and fall. Vacumn out the exhaust tube from the back of the dryer. Also at least every other year Remove the front panel and vac out the inside of the dryer. If you have never done this you will be amazed at all the lint in there. Also if your dryer is a few years old you are burning lint. For those people who have long vent runs like mine you will need a powerful shop vac that can blow and suck. Suck first blow next. Rotate this back and forth until you see a pile of lint at your vent exhaust. A leaf blower cant get out all the moldy wet stuff. This is what I suggest for an electric dryer. I have to experience with a gas dryer.

[@TheWorld_2099]

This is great, thanks for the detailed comment. I’m about to go deep into my dryer for the first time, it must be at least 10 years old, and I can tell it’s not heating as much as it used to. thanks again, have a great night

[@CocoChanelle-1]

The repair guy pulled the vent loose in the back of the dryer and vacuum it out. Also inside the back hole where it inserts. Also if a wall vent the hole that goes outside the house. Clean the screen vent with warm sudsy water and verify water can run through the holes. Rinse and let dry. Dryer sheets leave a film that stops air flow. I don’t use dryer sheets in the dryer anymore because of that.

[@vocha0424]

Good to know! Thanks

[@L00kng4hope]

I found this to be true with dryer sheets especially heavily perfumed ones (downy)

[@CocoChanelle-1]

@@vocha0424 you are welcome!

[@rumorydeyandel2347]

Damn bought a large pack of dryer sheets from Costco! Good to know thanks

[@CocoChanelle-1]

@ it’s ok to put 2 sheets in the Washing machine for a full load. It will soften your clothes and not cause a problem.

[@cherylsmith6953]

How do you clean the dryer vent that are connected to the back

[@michellesawyer6469]

Very good information on how to clean your dryer will try next time I clean my dryer.

[@suzannebolda383]

I had a hard time cleaning from the dryer to the outside… put a nylon stocking on the end in the house, attached my leaf blower to the outside vent and blew the pipe whistle clean.

[@vmobile890]

Drying clothes decided to look in lint trap crevice with flashlight . New dryer single person and 😳 wow 6 years from new . This will continue after fully clean to be every few months big job , marking my calendar as reminder .

[@kristinadays97]

Is this normal on this type of dryer vent? I have to vacuum mine out every two weeks because I thought I had so much lint getting past the first trap but this video makes me feel better because I didn’t have THIS much build up,

[@ncooty]

Just buy an appliance brush. They work for fridge coils, A/C coils, radiators, lint traps, etc. You can also blow the lint in and open from the back to clean the exhaust fan, coils, etc.

[@ImmaFrogRibbit]

My lint trap started to slightly lift on one side. Clothes started to get stuck on a corner and turned the whole load of clothes into a “clothes tornado” that I had to untwist. I trimmed the now gnarled plastic and even sanded it smooth. Still happened. To my horror there is a huge chunk of lint UNDER the trap! They sure don’t make it easy to reach though! Why!? It was like a damn brick 🧱 lol I came here looking for tips on how to possibly reach the bit I can’t seem to get, thanks a bunch!

[@precious014e]

I have this same dryer and just used one of those long flexible lint brushes to stick down in there. I didn't even know this area existed but now I'm paranoid because I couldn't get all of the dust and hair out since my vacuum is too this to stick in there...

[@LissaAnja]

yeah I'm also a bit paranoid about the lint...

[@V.Kay2025]

Where is the full cleaning video? Cant find it

[@andreapeloso2302]

Awesome - thanks to the two of you!

[@sofiasilveira7272]

Thank you 👆

[@lm-usmc]

I've always had good luck taping an auto heater hose to a shop vac attachment, and working the hose in to the space. You can get it pretty clean, along with the paint stick idea.

[@ASD-vm9mo]

Great video! Thanks for showing this!

[@cruisemanpuzzle3801]

How do I find your video about duct seal a great product to stop air leaks?

[@118kaptain]

I can still hear sand when I first start the dryer. How do I get that out please?

[@laurentyson8491]

What about sticking the vacuum in the outside vent and vacuuming there also? There is lint in there, too, isn't there?

[@MrGizmo211]

Good point! I need to show cleaning from the outside!

[@delsi25]

Thanks for this showing us this, but doing this without a mask would literally kill me because of my dust allergies

[@PhearaXT]

Can I use duster cleaner to clean inside the lint catcher?

[@stephanieharris3634]

I did. It worked flawlessly!

[@howlsgadgets3621]

Is there any chance that the second video has an ETA?

[@78widget]

🫶 NEW SUBSCRIBER here…Thank you for your videos 🫶. I know this video is 2 years old already, But WOW……have to be honest, I never really thought to get into that area. Whoa-Boy……this will be terrifying 🫣 and satisfying 🤗 at the same time 😂.

[@krisg6258]

Thank you. Everyone else talks about the duct but funding info on how to do this is impossible.

[@MrGizmo211]

Very welcome

[@bricks312100]

There also a fan in tbe dryer that has a cover you need to take of and clean.

[@Sami-Nasr]

I would say this is enough, even you dismantle the dryer after few cycles it will be the same situation as it is after this simple cleaning

[@avoiceraisedtopraiseGOD-mn9iu]

wow! thanks!

[@jimg9813]

Thanks for the video. I thought that if the vent is clean and the duct in the back was clean, that was all that was needed. Sad that companies actually create a fire hazard by creating a situation where there's "hidden" lint.

[@brentlybyers]

Thanks 🙏

[@ruocaled]

why not use air blower?

[@Mauiiiinokaoiii]

Bruh, literally, unscrew 2 or 3 screws that hold the plastic grate in place and stick your vacuum hose in it. You just made things so difficult for yourself and others.

[@elibomber]

You skipped through the video cause he literally showed that his dryer isn’t capable of that lmao

[@carolynbucy4877]

Lint,as you know is a combustible. It can be used in fireplaces, etc to get your fire 🔥 going instantly!

[@waqasahmed939]

I do the "minimum" every single time I use the dryer Every four months or do I'll clean out the other bits of lint underneath it. Perhaps not every month as yourself My dryer also sends me an alert to clean our the "plinth" filter too which is decent

[@SM-yr9kb]

How to fix this problem with the screen not able to capture all the stuff?

[@Mptappin12]

Yeah, I was cleaning up my filter and I noticed there was a bunch of more lint on the bottom

[@MrGizmo211]

@@Mptappin12 yes! That build up isn’t good

[@So_salty]

Ope! I should have unplugged it? 🤦‍♀️ just did this today but with a long brush and the hose kit

[@devilmecare]

I clean mine with a shop vac with a crevice tool attachment.

[@AAAA-lt9hq]

Is it possible to agitate fibers and move them deeper into the machine, making the fire hazard harder to reach and thus worse?

[@colleen381]

I used a hanger and got so much out! Thanks so much!

[@chrisagnew5727]

Icing spatula works great for this.

[@Bruuski]

Unless you drop the Spatula and now it's at the bottom of the slot.

[@vinderbajaj5682]

V good and eusy.thx

[@MrChappyman619]

Can you do a video on how to get a coat hanger out of the dryers lint trap

[@tiaturnbullchampionscoachi9587]

😅

[@L00kng4hope]

Haha!

[@jameslund221]

This is the same ge I have, you have to take the front off and get to the blower wheel.

[@carolynbucy4877]

Helllow! 😂

[@regisnyder]

How do i prevent the lent seeping out of the hose causing lent to fly around the laundry closet? I live in an apartment and the landlord won’t have maintenance secure the hose because I the W/D is their property (mine) and a handyman won’t do it because they don’t want to damage the apartment’s wall by securing it?

[@TimoLetourn]

Can't believe no one answered you. You've prob moved at this point, but there are hose clamps around the vents, yours have likely slipped off a bit. Get a nut driver or flat head screwdriver, back of the clamp, reseat it, and tighten it again

[@SR-cz5yy]

That dryers are designed badly. Can't open the vents to remove the lint. It really is a fire hazard and expensive to replace. Especially now that only condenser dryers are only available!!

[@528hrtz]

there’s another section underneath the dryer with even more unreachable dust

[@knownpleasures]

What about lint at the back of the tumble dryer?!? It sticks to the machine and how the hell did it happen in the first place?!?

[@stuntz0rZ]

No fire hazard at my house. My mom never took out the lint trap until she learned it constantly shuts off with error code. I suppose if the sensor malfunctioned it could be very bad.

[@lauriebond2997]

I must be a special kind of stupid. I always clean the screen but I don’t think I’ve gotten into the trap in years. After washing some rugs I noticed the screen wasn’t fitting. Looked in and it was completely clogged. Got most of it out this evening and will get a brush and break up the rest tomorrow. Major fire hazard!

[@MrGizmo211]

Glad to hear!!

[@L00kng4hope]

My daughter had the check lint light.. cleaned it out and light still came back on. Repair man found electric cord was burnt at wall. He said it could have burnt their house.

[@dancingdark4527]

I live in a rental and just found my pound of lint...who knows how many years and how many renters. I’m saddened.

[@MrGizmo211]

Lucky it didn’t start a fire. Probably didn’t dry clothes that well either.

[@jonrieder1188]

You can just unscrew the cover using the two screws on the front. Way easier.

People who don’t clean out lint regularly, especially in shared dryers are disgusting

[@precious014e]

I clean my lint screen once in the middle of each load and again when I am done but today I found that hidden area in the video and it was full. I have one of those long lint brushes and couldn't even manage to get it all out with that.

[@rogierius]

Wait till you open the back.

[@geoffl]

use chopsticks
