Title: Small and compact but huge value.
Review: I purchased this for one reason. To dry my scorpion peppers from the garden. Worked perfectly. Will now be using it for other things. Easy to use and clean. Temperature control is a bonus. Minimal noise. Highly recommend.

Title: Works Well, But Instructions/Description isa Little Deceptive
Review: The description states "This food dryer is suitable for a variety of homemade foods like mushrooms and turkeyâas well as snacks like banana chips, fruit roll-ups, and beef jerky." However the manual that comes with the device gives no directions for meat jerky, only for fruits and vegetables. This is likely due to the fact that the max temp on this device is 158F while meats like beef and chicken need to be heated to at least 165F to kill any potential bugs. The description does mention "beef jerky" but the lack of directions for making meat jerky indicates they don't want to be liable if there is an incident due to undercooked meats. I find this a little sneaky. I have made beef jerky in it and after drying in the dehydrator put the meat in a convection oven at 175F for an hour to kill any nasties. I have also tried meat dried in the machine but not placed in the oven and it tasted the same, good, and I didn't get sick, but that may not always be the case.The device works very well, but there is a caveat that if you do get sick from eating undercooked meat jerky they probably cannot be held responsible as they don't provide directions for drying meats. You can take the chance, as I did, or you can take steps, as I also did, to provide a temp of at least 165F when making meat jerky.

Title: Dehydrator
Review: I just love this product. It 9 1/2 " across, which is small for many dehydrators, but has 5 trays. I have a small kitchen and it fits perfectly on the counter top. It has temperature control, which is lovely. I have used it twice, and it works beautifully. If you dont need a large dehydrator, this is the one for you.

Title: I Bought This To Make Dog Treats For My Min Pin
Review: Follow the directions to clean your unit before using. I love that the trays are clear plastic so I can watch the progress but they are hard and would probably break if dropped. The dehydrator is compact enough to fit on my narrow kitchen counter and lightweight. The manual that comes with it is written well unlike some other products made in China. There is a guide for dehydrating fruits and vegetables but nothing for meat. I bought this to make chicken breast dog treats and after researching online I found an excellent way to do this...use precooked, boneless, skinless chicken breast. Slice the breast into long thin strips and place on the dehydrator trays. Use the highest setting and check the progress periodically--mine took about 4 hours to get the desired crunchiness, if you want a more chewy treat you can use less time. Precooked meat goes faster and also protects against bacteria growth that can occur in raw meat at low temperatures. My Min Pin loves his treat and I am happy that it is healthy for him with no added chemicals. I also made banana chips which are delicious--14 hours at 135 degrees F. Next time I will make my chips at a higher temperature for more crispiness. I love, love, love this product and just ordered cheese cloth from Amazon to line the trays (to prevent debris from falling into the bottom). This is better than my friends' more expensive models. Get it but be gentle with it and follow the directions. The cord is short but works fine on my kitchen counter. I plan to use it every day. I am currently making apple chips. Thank you Amazon for another affordable product that improves my life and that of my little Min Pin!

Title: Amazing Dehydrator
Review: I got this dehydrator for my ghost peppers and it worked great. I like how it has modular trays so you don't have any dead space when drying. I read online it could take up to 12 hours to dry ghost peppers however I wanted to grind them into a fine powder with a Mortar and Pestle so it took upwards of 40ish hours with all trays fully loaded. It was worth the wait and I didn't see any deficiencies in the product. It doesn't take up a lot of real-estate on the counter and is pretty quiet. It was very easy to clean and looks pretty nice too.I am very happy with this product and plan on using it for other foods.
