John F Danvers , MA October 23, 2020 The old filter assembly had become warped from heat and perpetual abuse from overuse. I had tried the quick fix of replacing the old lint filter. but it quickly failed because the assembly had become worn and brittle. I ordered the entire assembly and it only took a few minutes to swap out the old for new. Works perfectly now. Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: Less than 15 minutes
