Comments about Fantech Fantech DBLT 4 Dryer Lint Trap:

Dryer vents in to garage, used as second screen. Added two L brackets to fasten to wall. Fine mesh screen works great to keep lint out of garage. Cover is not easily removed but clear window is good but plastic seems like it may not last long, will see.

THIS ITEM HAS BEEN NEEDED FOR YEARS - ESPECIALLY PEOPLE WITH BASEMENT CLOTHES DRYERS. IT IS WELL MADE, EASY TO INSTALL, AND EASY TO CLEAN. ONLY CHALLENGE IS THAT IT REQUIRES A THICK WALL FOR A FLUSH INSTALLATION (MORE THAN 2X6). PRICE EXCELLENT[...] GREAT JOB!

Comments about Fantech Fantech DBLT 4 Dryer Lint Trap:

This was a great product for my needs. I unfortunately, have an area that was not plumb for a dryer and my dryer doesn't have it's own lint trap. I spent a lot of money trying to figure out this problem and then I found this thing. It works great! I do have some difficulty removing the screen to clean the lint out, but it's better than the water system I was using. That thing didn't work at all. I did have trouble installing it, but not the lint traps fault. My area is a very small room with no where to put the trap really. I would say it works really well, but is not very attractive at all. I would definately buy it again. Wish I would have found it first before all the other junk I bought. Thanks!

Comments about Fantech Fantech DBLT 4 Dryer Lint Trap:

Catches lint very effectively. I am using it in conjunction with a laundry booster fan. It is very easy to clean and has a clear window so you can see when it needs to be cleaned. I thought it could look more finished as it is just a metal finish.

 
Works good.

Comments about Fantech Fantech DBLT 4 Dryer Lint Trap:

Lint trap works well. Access door removal is a little awkward. Will not win any beauty awards, but works well and would highly recommend to help keep duct runs clean from lint. I installed the Fantech DBF4XL Dryer Booster fan and glad I also installed the FanTech lint trap. Dryer works great now and duct run stays clean

Great product!
By Jim the landscape architectVerified Purchaser from Long Beach, CA on 3/1/2010
Pros:
Gets the job done

Bottom Line:

Comments about Fantech Fantech DBLT 4 Dryer Lint Trap:

I needed something that would help trap the small amount of lint that gets past the dryer lint trap. I vent my dryer thru my garage roof, and I wanted double protection that the lint would not clog up the end of the vent which is very hard to get to (since it is on the garage roof). This works perfectly. The only thing that would make it somewhat easier, is if the front panel was easier to open. Maybe with an actual door on small hinges, it could then swing open. The way it is designed now, you have to carefully pull the front panel off, and then it is a bit of a hassle to get the panel back in place. Not a huge issue, but just a suggestion!

Solid Product
By LSmytheVerified Purchaser from Northern VA on 2/9/2010
Pros:
Sleek Design
Describe Yourself:
Homeowner
Bottom Line:

Comments about Fantech Fantech DBLT 4 Dryer Lint Trap:

Solid construction - good quality. It won't quite fit inside a 2x4 wall (the vent pipe will sit out too far) but would be excellent for vents outside the wall, open walls (no sheet rock installed) or thicker walls (2x6), etc. Note there is a top and bottom (the inlet/outlets are different sizes).

Decent Lint Trap
By ByronVerified Purchaser from Spring Hill, KS on 4/9/2008
Pros:
Catches Much Lint, Easy To Install
Cons:
Door is clumsy
Best Uses:
Laundry Room
Describe Yourself:
Handyman, Homeowner
Bottom Line:

Comments about Fantech Fantech DBLT 4 Dryer Lint Trap:

This lint trap catches a lot that the primary lint trap in the dryer misses. The door is somewhat clumsy, but works. I would have preferred a hinged design for the door. Other than that, I am very satisfied with the product.
