Review on High-Quality Beaquicy Replacement Dryer Lint Filter And Cover Housing Set For Kenmore And LG Dryers (ADQ56656401 And MCK49049101 Models) by Ross Sugden

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Okay quality replacement part - but only option since LG changed part design

LG sells the lint cover guide MCK49049101 that they say pairs with the lint filter ADQ56656403, however they have changed the design of the cover guide so it no longer accepts the "wings" on the lint filter (see first two photos). I made countless calls to LG and no one there could help.This kit was the only solution I could find to get a cover guide and lint filter that match. The quality of the cover is okay. It's thinner and flexes more than the original. The fit is adequate in the dryer but not exact (see next three photos). I found that it worked well enough with this cover guide and the OEM LG lint filter, but the filter that this kit came with actually didn't fit accurately: the filter wings stand up too high (see last two photos).All in all I would give it a lower score since the parts are eh and don't fit together well, but it's the only solution I can find to LG's terrible design and service, so two stars it is.

Pros
  • Easy Installation
Cons
  • The housing may not fit as snugly on the dryer, causing rattling or other unwanted sounds during operation
