Septree Food Dehydrator with 4 Stainless Steel Trays - Electric Food Dryer Machine

Vonsch: This dehydrator is the perfect size for my countertop. It does not hog the entire surface and can be easily stored in my lower cupboard when I'm not using it. The six silver metal mesh trays are tightly woven so I don't need to buy any of those mesh inserts. They are also a perfect square so it's easy to slide in and out. I can dehydrate two small heads of kale in one go. I tend to cook at about 120 degrees, so I have not ever needed the potholders that were included. The price was right, at $129.99 and it looks like it can be purchased for even less, such as black Friday and cyber-Monday. My only complaint is that once in a while I can hear a strange banging noise, as if the internal fan is laying too close to the outer/side metal casing and is touching it. By the time I get to the dehydrator to investigate, it usually stops. If it keeps up then I will remove the casing myself and investigate...but, other than that, I love everything about this dehydrator.

MSC: Third dehydrator and this has been the best. I use to make jerky dog treats and sometimes run two-three batches at a time, running this continuously. Easy clean up, better than plastic trays in old units. Removable drip tray is a bonus.

Trays could fit a LITTLE better is the only reason it's getting 4 stars. They don't slip off, but requires a little attention placing inside.

Haven't physically checked temperatures, but it's definitely more consistent and gets hotter than last two units.

Price definitely makes a difference but I would put this as a high quality unit at a comfortable price

Dee: I Love this little machine. the only thing the top of unit has a couple deep scratches. I was going to send it back. But I decided to see if it worked . It does work well. I made beef jerky 190 degrees for about 2 hours. Very thin lean beef. . Tasted awesome. I wish it had more detail recipes. I guess with this one. Turn out delicious 😋I decided to keep it with the scratches. Also I thought the two containers were supposed to be glass . They were cheap looking plastic. Not even sure if it's bpa free. Probably not because it would have said.

JulieJulie: I've used those round stackable plastic dehydrators for the last couple of decades; they do the job. However, I was blown away that it took 6 hours to make Beef Jerky in this dehydrator, when the old plastix towers took a minimum of 12 hours. Apple slices and bananas took 6 hours as well. Fruit leather was done in 4. What a game changer!

Let me break down this machine:

Build: the whole interior is stainless steel, even the shelves. Easy to wash, and no plastic touching your food. It is about the size of an early 2000s microwave, and could easily be stored away in a cabinet. That does not mean this is small, because it has 6 trays roughly 12" square. The machine is very retro looking.

Features:
This is a set-and-forget machine. There are buttons with a digital display that take the guesswork out of dehydrating your treats. It automatically turns off after it reaches the time you have set, too! That means delicious, healthy snacks produced while you are at work, without having to worry about them.

I would like to point out that I purchased this when there was a deal going on for an extra free tray (that's why you'll see 7 trays.)

All in all,...

Kate: This food dehydrator works amazingly, it gets fruits and veggies really dry. It's great for food preservation!

I bought it to make healthy snacks, and dehydrate food to take on hikes, and it's amazing for that! So far I've tried making banana, apple, strawberry, and snap peas - all came out great and kept their flavor!

They taste even better than the dehydrated fruit chips you can get at the grocery store because they're so fresh!

I also like the small footprint, and many levels of trays, it fits well on a countertop and doesn't take up too much space in a smaller kitchen, while still letting you prep a lot of food at once!

Yesenia T.Yesenia T.: Es justo lo que buscaba, su tamaño es perfecto para mi, algo no tan grande fácil de guardar, trae 2 contenedores, 2 cositas de silicona para no quemarse, un recetario en inglés, unas mallas. No es muy ruidoso, los grados sólo los marca en fahrenheit y el tiempo avanza de 30 en 30 min.
