OSTBA Food Dehydrator with Adjustable Temperature & 72-Hour Timer

Susan Chandler: I make dehydrated liver treats for my dogs every week. I have had it for about a year. It is quiet, safe and reliable. I put the meat on parchment paper for easy cleanup. Worked great for fruit as well.

SSue: Trays are easy to clean. I like that the temp and time controls are easy to set. I moved the trays around during the dehydration which helped everything get completed about the same time. The fan noise is minimal.

Barbara Dailing: I like that it is small and doesn't take up much cabinet space. It is pretty quiet when it is turned on. Looks nice and has several trays to use all at once. The directions were not very good. Just a list of some things to dehydrate with some times and temperatures. Doesn't say that the trays should be rotated and doesn't list a lot of items that would be normal to use in a dehydrator. I am a "Newbie" at using a dehydrator and needed more help that the manufacturer supplied in the instructions. I am learning on my own, slowly. I did finally get some strawberry slices done and they are very good to munch on. The reason I didn't give a five star is because the directions just kind of left me hanging. I am going to love it once I get it all figured out.

Aaron Massey: This dehydrator has been a good option for me. I mainly use it for herbs, fruit (apples, limes, oranges), and fruit purées. It’s really simple to use and compact. I did make some beef and pork jerky that both turned out well. But I would recommend using it only for meat or only produce. The meat drippings were difficult to remove from the trays since they have so many air holes.

Kelby: LOVE THIS!!! So far I have dehydrated cilantro, apples, onions, and lavender. Works great! My only criticism is that the instructions didn't mention anything about rotating the trays. I guess people just know this has to be done, but I didn't. So the first thing I made dehydrated much faster on the bottom than on the top. Now I know to rotate the trays throughout the process. Not a big deal just wish it had been mentioned.
Also it would be nice to have a timer, but I know for this price point it's just the basics. A couple of the things I've dehydrated required waking up at like 2 AM to turn it off.
Overall I love it, and it's a great starter dehydrator for someone who just wants to get started but doesn't want to invest a lot of money.
