COSORIFood Dehydrator for Jerky, 10 Trays, 16.2ft² Drying Space, 165°F Temperature Control, 48H Timer, 1000W Dehydrator Machine, Stainless Steel, for Herbs, Fruit, Meat, and Yogurt, Silver

I used to use an Excalibur dehydrator that I would borrow from a neighbor during backpacking food prep season. When she moved away, I decided to purchase my own dehydrator. And I’ve got news for you: this dehydrator is BETTER than the famed Excalibur in so many ways. Smaller footprint. Quieter fan. Simple settings. Easier to clean. All metal trays (not plastic). I simply love it and for half the price of the Excalibur, this is a steal. I got the silicone non stick trays with a small edge on them to use for dehydrating meats and fruit leather and sauces. They work perfectly and this machine dehydrates like a dream.

This is my new favorite appliance. I have made at least 10 batches of apple chips, pineapple, mango, and strawberries.The first batch was my experiment with temperatures, timing, and with how thin I needed to cut my fruit. I have found that apples turn out the best when cut at 1/8in and set to the fruit function with 1 extra hour added. I could eat the entire batch in one day, they are so flavorful!Pineapple I cut a bit thicker at 1/4in half circles and did the fruit function plus 2 hours. They are a bit more chewy and less like chips but I think they are even better than the fresh cut fruit.Mango I cut thin and accidentally over dehydrated them on the regular fruit function with no adjustments. I think i will blend them into a powder.Strawberries I sliced thinly at 1/8th and cooked for the regular fruit function. They also came out very crunchy but will also make an excellent strawberry powder.With my garden this summer will be putting it to the test with a lot vegetables. Will update with those results as I trial and error with them!

loveeeee it!! been wanting a dehydrator for so long because my mom used to have one and we would make home made jerky etc. picked this one because it looked pretty nice for the price. after using it for jerky, pineapple, mango, bananas, and recently to dry some mint leaves, I absolutely love it. doesn't put off too much heat or noise while on, but some heat does come out the glass door hinge so keep that in mind. the timer and temp adjustment on the touch screen work perfect and seem to be accurate. I really like the sleek design so it doesn't even look super clunky on your counter when you're using it, not really big either. seems to really keep the flavors in especially when using lower heat for longer time, comes with a book that gives recommended time, temps, and recipes for whatever you're making which is perfect and handy if someone doesn't know what to do. the book even tells you what the end texture or crunch of a product will be which is so cool. smell is only really noticeable within 6 feet of the machine. comes with several racks and sheets for drying or making fruit leather etc. overall, HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

This dehydrator is great! I use it for oranges (must cut paper thin) and have tried bananas. It is super simple and when something doesn't come out dried enough, you can just hit it again with another shorter wave of heating. I've used this product about 15 times now and love it. The metal trays are nice, but warp under heat. Haven't used the plastic tray with all of the warnings about micro plastic. I wouldn't buy a dehydrator smaller than this as this is a perfect size.

On day one I made 4 lbs of beef jerky. It was amazing! However, after an hour at 165° we heard a loud pop come from the dehumidifier, saw nothing unusual until the 2nd hour when the jerky was done ... saw a 10" crack under the dehumidifier. It was HOT!!!! It got so hot it cracked our quartz countertop. WTF:(We cannot imagine if we let that thing go for 8 hours for something else, what it would've done.Makes me sick.Gave it 5 stars because the beef jerky was so good and done in two hours. Sending it back so it doesn't burn down.

Having a family full of beef jerkey lovers I wish I'd of ordered this sooner!! I had a different dehydrater for awhile, and the jerkey was a hit or miss constantly. My very first time using this, I knew it was a winner. I cooked just 1 batch jerkey as a test run. The machine was extremely quiet, but my kitchen filled with yummy aromas quickly! 2 hours for 1 pound thin beef jerkey and to my surprise, it was done! It fits nicely on my counter, it has Plenty of room to do a full batch of jerkey, and it's appearance is appealing. The jerkey flavor was incredible, Speed to finished product Outstanding! Value for the money is by far top tier! The timer has automatic shut off, such a great feature! I cannot say enough about this dehydrater, A + Not sure why tho I can only do 2 stars?? This deserves every star possible.

Great big/little machine. Found a permanent spot for it since we use it so much(at least twice a week so far). My brother bought one about six months ago and recommended it to me and I'm glad he did. Easy to use and works great. I'm able to fit 5 pounds of meat onto the 6 trays for jerky. I've had no problems at all with it. Looks and works good. Good deal.
