Product review (5 stars): Great Filter
Bought this to replace the lint filter on a 17-year old Maytag dryer.  The original one started to tear where you constantly poke your finger to start to pull off the lint.  This is much sturdier than the original, so I expect it to last as long as the dryer will, which may not be much longer, but that's fine.  The picture looks like there is a plastic grid behind the mesh, but the one I received did not, which is ok since the mesh is more heavy-duty.
