Product review (5 stars): New Design works great
So glad LG fixed the design of this lint filter.  Our original filter that came with the dryer did not have the "indentation" (upper right of the picture).  When a little bit of lint built up, the filter would not sit completely flush.  Clothes with straps or strings would get caught in the filter and would be ripped and ruined while bending and warping the filter.  This happened every few months until the filter was bent to the point where it would not fit in the slot.
This part was relatively cheap but the new design made it worth it.  It works as expected without the worry of your clothes getting ruined.
