THANK YOU-THANK YOU forsaving our lives!!! after reading about your find from dryer repair- we decided to do our dryer cleaning which we haven't done yet -ever thinking cleaning the lint filter was enough in 4 years but after learning about your potential hazard- OMG we went on U tube to see how to get the front bottom cover off - got it off & low & behold- the cover for the lint hose exit was almost completely BLOCKED with fur & sandy type of stuff.. I was in HORROR!! PLEASE anyone PLEASE HEED Caution- Clean your Dryer exhaust ALL the way from the dryer to the exit.. A fire would have killed me, bob, 31 ferrets, a dog, a cat and a rat.. www.littlefeetferretbedding.org Here is her POST AGAIN!!
