dryer is driving her goofy

Hi guys,
Hope someone can help me with my friends dilema. She has a majestic washer and drier in her fifth wheel. It is a stacking set. The problem is there is no lint filter anywhere. She is always having to clean the side wall of her fifth wheel where the drier is vented. Is she missing something. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Wow, not familiar with the dryer, but I would add a filter on the exhaust; (If room), if none are available within the dryer.

Our vented Splendide stackable does have a lint filter on the front and we still have to constantly wipe lint off of the side. Could be the nature of the beast that some lint passes through regardless, I think our stickhouse dryer even does the same or we would never have to clean the vent hose occasionally (which we do). Probably doesn't help with the problem though, sorry.

Could it be vented to the outside? I would think that would solve the lint problem. Just my opinion.

Ditto what Bingo said. We have the same units that he does and we have the same problem - as per my wife.

We had a majestic. The manual downloaded from majestocs web site says a lint filter WILL VOID THE WARRENTY. The US distributer for Majestic is in Vancouver, Washington. Goggle majestic USA and you should come up with them.
Ours was vented outside and was constantly blowinf out wads of lint.

We threw out our majestic and installed maytage 24" stackables after adding a 220 V service for the dryer, and are very pleased.

Can't beat that Maytag and the 220 volt dryer, we have the 220, why not use it. Faster and dryer clothes.
