Wow ron, that is a long way!

It can get very clogged too! before the first time I cleaned it, it took two or three dryer runs to get the clothes dry. There were bags of lint in there too!

It is lucky that we did not burn down the house

My DH commented this morning how the dryer is not drying completely on the eco-dry mode and it takes 2 or 3 runs - so not so eco-friendly with all the electricity used.
I will need to check the dryer vent and make sure it is clean. We removed the plastic corrugated venting (that was almost completely clogged) and replaced it with smooth metal venting when we updated our washer and dryer. But I have not checked it in the last 2 years.

@Cynthia12 I hope you don't lose any trees!
But, better to loose a tree or 2 than to have the neighborhood blow up.

This kit works well and can be used to clean inside the dryer too

Our dryer outlet is straight through the nearest wall. All I need is a short dryer hose. When Dh uses the leaf blower to clean the garage out, he slides out the dryer, puts the leaf blower nozzle in the vent hose, and that's it. It gets done regularly, so no big deal.

Nice!

Boo! I'm getting sick. Head cold, sore throat starting.

It sounds like DH and I are starting to come down with the the same thing as you.
