Yeah, but it must have been working or more stuff wouldn't have gotten in.
LOL I played the video while the progress bar was hidden and didn't realize it had looped. Even so, that's a nice haul.
Like real estate, it's all about location, location and location.
Our dryers are on the outside wall so the vents are 7" long and never plug.
The videos on that site appear to be endlessly looped, making it appear to be even more stuff.
Yes, but it does change texture at one point though it could still be partly faked. In any case, it is too much lint and not enough care.
They do get pretty nasty if nobody cleans them. Maybe they tried bushing a brush through and it got stuck. I just pull mine out and throw it away every few years. It isn't worth screwing with once that dryer sheet goo gets in the pipe. A stick of 4" galv stove pipe and a couple elbows are about $10. In 3 years you might save that much on electricity. Then there is that fire thing ;-)
Fake or not it is a good idea to check vents occasionally.
I had three issues myself:
In a rental with dryer in basement a rabbit got in the ground level vent and died in the dryer and essentially ruined it. We were moving to a new house and bought a new dryer for the last weeks in the rental.
Birds got under the old dryer flap in my house and were filling it with nesting material. Might have caught fire if cat had not responded to noises and had me check.
A repairman pointed out that vinyl coated spring venting I was using was out of code and if there was a fire I could have an insurance problem. I replaced it with metal.
Why do you always call people who see things differently "stupid". Do you do that in real life?

When I first viewed this I thought wow what a source of mattress filling; until I saw the title...
