I bought the Gardus RLE202 LintEater and an additional 12' extension kit from Amazon a year ago. That gave me 24' total length for the drill attachment.

It worked great. My dryer is located in the basement in an interior room. The 4" metal dryer duct is right at 23' long and has two 90° turns and one 45° turn before exiting through the outside wall. When we bought our house, I discovered the prior owner apparently had never cleaned it in 20 years and it was basically almost totally clogged.

The LintEater worked perfectly with my Rigid 12 gallon shop vac and cordless drill. I collected a ton of lint, approximately 10 gallons of it. I'm surprised the house hadn't burned down before.

It's been a year so time to do this again. Thanks for the reminder.
