But I think you should see SOME lint , if you don't then there isn't enough mechanical action in the machine.
Yes Mike I get the best Lint Balls from dog stuff in my FilterFlo TOO! Nice flocculation there buddy!

Even if you do graduate to Filter-Flos later, a pair of classic Maytags would be a very good place to start getting comfortable with owning collectible laundry appliances.
Maytag's engineering is simple and robust, yet the machines can be as fully-featured as anything out there. The top-of-the-line 806s are two-speed machines that last forever with reasonable maintenance. Other collectible machines can have more complex mechanicals that require more knowledge to repair. That may or may not be a drawback for you; you're the best judge of your mechanical abilities. But Maytags are a good place to start. |

Yesterday, I had a lint wad similar to Phil's after washing the Velux blanket from our bed, and an afghan I bought at an estate sale. I washed them in my 1971 Maytag A806s, and dried them in my 1971 DE606, and the lint filter disc was lightly covered also. There was quite a bit of hair in the lint from the washer. They came out of the DE606 so nice & soft, and only faintly smelling of the Suavitel Morning Sun softener I used. |

Alex: ... !!! ....under the dryer paddles? OMG, I won't sleep tonight...but will tear apart the dryer to vacuum and find these festering little globs of fiberoids. :-) To be serious, isn't this why some fires start in a dryer...lint balls?
Larry - I found your dryer more interesting than the lint! Nice machine. I also liked the Spaceshuttle vid that followed. |

Wasn't there a movie about that? "Escape from Lint Mountain" or something to that effect? *ducks and runs* |
