My Maytag Neptune has a "comb-like" plastic thing in the bottom half of the tub cover. I'm guessing it filters water as it is clogged with gunk, hair and and lint. I cleaned it as best I could. Can I remove it for better cleaning or should I replace it?
This is a great site. Many thanks for your help.

ANSWER Flo, The "comb like"plastic thing in the bottom half of the tub cover, is actually a "guard", to keep articles from getting between the tubs. There is a tendency for lint, hair, etc. to accumulate on the "brush" and you do need to clean the build up off occasionally. You don't really want to remove it, and it would require repalcing the tub cover to repalce it. You may want to add it to your "spring cleaning" list, as a maintenance item.
