My Samsung dryer has a lint trap that sticks up high. It was caught my a blanket and tore it up. Now the lint trap is cracked in half and it tears the straps on all my clothes. HELP!!!!
Ours did the same thing and it was caused by lint build up in the track where the screen goes into. It was tough to vacuum out but I made a thin hose that would reach down to the bottom and scrape and vacuum out the hardened lint.
Hi I followed the tip above, but ran into trouble as the crevice tool on my vaccum was not long enough to get to where the lint was. Dont try this at home kids, but it worked for me. I used a long handled bbq fork to get way down into the channel that the hot air comes up from (on the left side of the inside of the lint compartment). I dug way down and pulled out more lint that you would believe. I bet I got another 6 or 7 fist sized bunches of lint. I used the fork to get it within reach and then carefully pulled it out by hand. I'm sure this could be risky in terms of getting a shock, but it worked like a charm and I'm ok.

Yes this is rellatively normal as clothes are just not made the same way any more. You could turn down the drying temperature slightly and put in an anti static drying sheet but it won't make that much difference.
Testimonial: "I just had a repairman out because the dryer was no longer heating. The whole inside of the dryer was full of lint. It was awful. "

in the back of the dryer there is a diagram/booklet that will let you know, should be in the left hand corner inside the dryer. Good Luck Tim
