| Originally bought the Aroma Dehydrator to handle an over-abundance of garden peppers, but have used it for apples, herbs, and other garden products now as well. Has operated almost non-stop this fall, and worked flawlessly. Is easy to keep clean, quiet, does a nice job. A larger dehydrator might be nice, but for the money, I'll call this a "best buy." |
Great family hobby

| We only bought this dehydrator to desiccate plant samples for my 13-year-old's science project, but after the science fair was over, we discovered a wonderful way to make the family's snacks by drying fruit, vegetables and beef (as jerky). It is quiet and efficient. The stack trays hold enough food to make it worth your while to run the machine. It sets up easily, and the stack trays are dishwasher safe. I was pleasantly surprised by just how much you can do with this product. |
Fantastic Gift

I was hesitant to buy reading what some of the past reviewers had written but I feel like I did well here. The thing was well packed from the factory and amazon threw it in another box for good measure. That is why I like amazon they don't mind adding a box if it will prevent a return. smart business.
The dehydrator itself is a very simple and easy to use device, stack food you want to dry on the trays, hit the switch and watch it spin for 30 minutes in a hypnotic trance. (that last part is optional). It gets up to operating temp quickly and is relatively quiet. It has a blower and moving plastic parts people- it's not silent. It was really squeaky at first but after running for a few hours it got much much quieter, can't hear it running in the next room. The way people had said the trays were broken etc I expected part of the thing to be glass but all the parts are plastic. It does not strike me as an extremely high quality appliance, however it also looks like it would be 150 dollars at the store, not 35. I think it's top notch for the money spent.
I am a jerky nut, I love the stuff. This cannot be beat for the price, if it lasts a year and continues to make me jerky it will have more than paid for itself in that time.
Now I just need that jerky gun I saw!

| I read a lot of reviews about this dehydrator before I bought it, and honestly most of them were very misleading...I got my dehydrator in perfect condition. It works awesome, and it's very cheap. I have already made beef jerky and apple chips in my dehydrator. The first batch of jerky kinda sucked because I didn't read the directions that come with the dehydrator, but the second batch was freaking awesome. Same with the apple chips...they are great. I think that with this dehydrator you MORE then get your moneys worth. |

| this product is great. i bought two to replace my 10 year old dehydrators that were failing. i didn't realize that these hydrators rotated until i received them. the rotating feature makes these dehydrators so much more efficient then the stationary type. definitely worth the money. |
