Overview
An adjustable thermostat sets the drying heat while stacked trays hold fruit, herbs, vegetables and jerky in layers. The trays lift off for loading and go in the dishwasher afterward.
Compact size and dishwasher safe trays make it easy to use often and put away. Small trays and a modest heater mean big harvests take several rounds, and the listing does not say whether airflow is fan driven.
Who it's for
Apartment kitchens and occasional snack makers get a dehydrator that stores in a cupboard. Hunters drying large batches of jerky will outgrow it quickly.
Pros and cons
- Compact body stores in a cupboard
- Dishwasher safe trays
- Adjustable temperature covers herbs to jerky
- Light enough to move easily
- Small capacity for large harvests
- Airflow design not listed
Performance notes
Drying time depends on slice thickness, moisture in the food and how evenly warm air reaches each tray in the stack. Thin, even slices dry at a similar pace, while crowding a tray blocks airflow. Rotating trays partway through evens out a stacked design.
