Elite Gourmet EFD319 Food Dehydrator, 5 BPA-Free 11.4" Trays Adjustable Temperature Controls, Jerky, Herbs, Fruit, Veggies, Dried Snacks, Black

I’ve been genuinely impressed with this dehydrator and use it regularly. It’s very easy to use, heats evenly, and has plenty of tray space, which makes it great for making snacks at home in larger batches. I mainly use it for dehydrated fruit and snacks like bananas, mangoes, and chickpeas, and everything has turned out consistently well with a great texture every time. One of the biggest wins for me has been the cost savings. I used to spend quite a bit on store-bought dehydrated fruit, and making my own has saved a lot of money. I also love knowing exactly what’s in my snacks—no added sugar, preservatives, or fillers. Even with frequent use, I haven’t noticed any real increase in my electricity bill, which was a pleasant surprise. The trays are easy to clean, the controls are simple and straightforward, and it runs quietly enough that I feel comfortable leaving it on overnight. It’s become a regular part of my kitchen routine and makes healthy snacking easy and enjoyable. One small con: if you’re brand new to dehydrating, there’s a bit of trial and error at first to figure out ideal slice thickness and timing for different foods. Once you get the hang of it, though, it’s very easy and consistent. Overall, this has been a fantastic purchase. It’s reliable, efficient, and well worth it if you want to make your own snacks at home. I’m very happy with it and would absolutely recommend it.

Works great for the first batch of drying orange and lemon slices. The noise when it is on is tolerable like a fan sound/white noise. Compact, great price and very easy to operate, clean and store.

The Good: * I like the timer in one hour increments * It has several different pre-defined temperatures, which happen to work well for my use case (I'm actually using it to dry out 3D printer filament) * It's small and doesn't take up much room when not in use * It is clean and looks good on the desk when I'm drying filament The Meh: * The fan is a touch loud. Not bad, and it doesn't squeal or anything, just a little loud * The beeps are very loud, but you only hear them when setting up the timer and temperature The Bad: * Nothing The Verdict: Definitely recommend, especially for 3D printing hobbyists. I got this as it was recommended for drying 3D filament, and it works great. The highest temp it goes, 158 F, is just about perfect for drying PETG filament, which I use a lot of.

Works great! And great price! I use it to make dehydrated snacks for my dogs, and this does the trick. One caveat, it does NOT have a timer on it. I give it a 8/10 because of that. Other, I would purchase again

I bought as a gift. We love it. Not noisy, functions well and easy to clean. It really does the job and it’s easy to store!

This is an easy to work with product. Large in size and plenty of room so put whatever your dehydrating on trays . It has a louder than normal sound that I would say is not what I would have preferred. Overall the product worked. I feel the time it takes to dry fruit was very long. The look is super round and larger than most appliances on counter tops . Great for dehydrating allows and oranges.

Bought Jan 24 delivered Jan 25 died today. The light doesn't even come on. Contacted their customer support emailed what was requested now I have to wait to see what they say. I just ordered a more expensive unit since I have a lot of marinated meat that would just go to waste. Bought the warranty this time because this is annoying as hell. Updated 2/27/26 Contacted seller and they had me send pictures and invoice. Approved new base heating unit next day. But won’t ship for 7-10 days. As I stated earlier bought a more expensive unit that arrived in time for me to not was over 50 dollars worth of meat. Guess I’ll have this unit for a back up or might just give it away… all in all their warranty is valid for a year but considering I would have lost more money on meat because it failed made me give it 3 stars.

I purchased this so I could make my senior hounds nutritious dehydrated organ meat treats. Tell me why I've only been making beef, venison and fruit jerkeys to perfection. I wish it had a timer, but still no deal breaker. This product is amazing!
