I haven't had filters on the washers I have had for the past 28
years (first a GE, then a Maytag Neptune since moving to this
house 10 year ago). No problems! I think they simply are not
needed in most situations. Now, the dryer is a different story.
I clean that after every one or two loads.

I'm still thinking that I need to pour drain cleaner down the washer
tub on a regular basis if there's nothing to filter it from the
washer. Plus, the hose from the washer to the tub must get clogged
over time; sort of like plaque in the veins of someone with
heart/high blood pressure health problems.

I have never had a problem with clogging, in all the years I have used
washing machines without filters. My mother used to have a washing machine
that collected lint on the outer edge of the agitator (by design), but that
was many years ago. The washing machine seems to simply flush everything
out into the sewage system, and I have never had a problem.
