I bought this product to make jerky for my husband since he is on a low-carb diabetic diet and is thus very limited on what he can snack on. We are very pleased with the result. I have made jerky both with the sample of curing spice the unit came with and without it (just using my own marinade concoction) and they both came out great. Sliced very thin, we can do a 3 lb piece of beef in about 4 - 5 hours which makes about a large ziplock bag of jerky. To buy that much pre-made jerky would cost a fortune. The noise level is not bad, like an audible hum. The unit also generates some heat in the room. We use it on a continuous basis. The difficult part is cleaning the dried-on marinade off the trays - best to let them soak in the sink for a while, but we think it's worth it (I make him do it!) I bought a vacuum sealer to vacuum pack the jerky, but he eats it so fast it's not necessary. It comes with an instruction manual on how to dry different types of food. We are very pleased with the purchase.
I have never dried fruits before so I had no idea which Dehydrator to buy. There are so many on the market and all claim to be the best. So I bought this one and I have to say it was a great choice. The machine comes with 5 trays, 2 clean-a-sheets and 2 fruit-roll trays. This is more than enough to get started. (Make sure to get the extra clean-a-sheets as they are very handy). The machine is very easy to use, no explanation necessary. The trays are sturdy and durable. The fan is very quiet but still powerful enough to dry the foods in a reasonable time. The documentation is basic but good enough. It shows you drying times and has tips & tricks for different foods, recipies included.
I have not used any other Dehydrators, but if you are in the market for your first machine too, this one won't disappoint you!!!!
I ordered it from Amazon, even if it was not the cheapest option. Reason for this is the great Customer Service and prompt & reliable service.I've had my Nesco dehydrator for a couple of months now, and I love it. I've made several batches of jerky, which the whole family enjoys. I've also dehydrated onions, apples, herbs, tomatoes (de-seeded and squeezed a little to remove some of the liquid), green peppers, garlic, squash, cherries, strawberries, green beans, corn and even cantaloupe. The machine works quickly, and the efficient fan means you don't have to keep shuffling the trays to get everything evenly dried. The temperature settings are nice too, since not everything needs the same amount of heat. The best part of having it is that when your potatoes and onions start to go bad, you can dry them and save them to cook with. And I love knowing that the fruits and jerky I give my family are clean, safe and have no added chemicals.
If you plan to dehydrate fruit for snack eating, you might want to dip the slices lightly in sugar before drying. The cantaloupe was a little plain afterwards. Also when dehydrating onions or garlic, it's best to do it outside or in the garage, as the scent can be overpowering indoors. When drying apples or potatoes, soak them in lemon water first to prevent browning.
Next I plan to make some fruit roll-ups in the special tray that came with the dehydrator.
