I live with four cats. When I took the bottom off my fridge I found a whole other cat! It was bad...so much hair and the W coils are a real pain to clean.

The copper pipe was an "ah-ha" moment. Why didn't I think of that!? The crevis tool isn't long enough so I was emptying my fridge, tilting it from the side, then vacuuming it... duh. Thank you Sir.

PVC tubing used for draining a water softener, works well too.

Thank you! how to get to the drip pan? our coils are shaped like WWWW from the front to the back. i can't get to the coils in the middle. any advice?

Those WWWWW coils are the oil cooling coils (heat exchanger) for the main compressor. If you don't clean them once a year the compressor will run too hot and overheat. I vacuum the front and back coils to remove the dust with the bristle brush. The only way to get all the dust out is to use compressed air. Yes it makes a lot of dust in the kitchen. The coils are designed wrong by some brilliant engineer, no easy way to clean them. They changed the design after too many service calls. And the service techs couldn't clean them.
