highly recommended

The NESCO Professional Food & Jerky Dehydrator has more power than most dehydrators -- 700 watts -- which means faster drying time. You will have results in hours, not days. The top mounted fan with patented Converga-Flow action pressurizes air downward through the outer ring and horizontally across each individual tray, converging at the center, for fast, even drying. No need to rotate trays. The adjustable thermostat allows you to dry different foods at proper temperatures (95-155 F), providing the flexibility to produce the best drying results. As your needs grow, the Professional Food & Jerky Dehydrator can be expanded up to 12 trays.

Great product

I really like this dehydrator. I have used it to dry soaked nuts and I love that this machine has a variable
temp control. I can dry them at low temperature to preserve the enzymes which would be killed at higher
temps. I look forward to using it for many other drying
needs. I recommend this product. It is quiet and much faster than my old dehydrator.

Buy No Other

Avid kitchen gardeners & jerky lovers, my husband & I purchased our first dehydrator, an 80 liter Cabela's professional model, this spring. It was quite expensive & failed within a month's use. My husband was discouraged & determined to build his own dehydrator when I talked him into just trying the Nesco 700-watt dehydrator. We have since used the Nesco to dry everything from herbs to jerky & my husband raves everytime at its perfect performance & engineering! The Nesco operates quietly, dries evenly, cleans almost effortlessly, & is a marvel of functional simplicity. We are totally thrilled with this dehydrator & recommend it without hesitation.

Everyone's getting jerky for Christmas!

I bought this for one reason only...JERKY. So far I have no complaints with its design or any other functionality. Other reviewers have noted that it's missing a timer and an on/off switch which is true but to me it means that there's just less that could go wrong with it, and who doesn't have a timer on their microwave, oven or watch?

I have the larger size jerky gun that nicely holds a pound of lean ground beef or turkey. It only takes 2 or 3 trays to hold 1 lb of jerky using my gun. For ease of use in squeezing out the meat, I use the wide tip on the jerky gun and arrange it in a spiral on the tray. There is less problems with constantly having to pinch of the ends and also with this method I only need 2 trays and when it's done, I just cut the long strip of jerky into squares.

With the spices/cure already prepackage for sale here or at my local WM, the ease of the jerky gun and the quick drying with this unit, all my friends, family and coworkers will be getting homemade beef and turkey jerky for Christmas. It'll save me money, the jerky is outstanding and for the people that don't know I have one of these, they will think I went through a lot of trouble to make them homemade jerky. Hehe.

I have not attempted to dehydrate anything else and really don't intend to. I bought this only for jerky and for that it does an excellent job. It's fast, it's dries consistently, not messy at all, and I can make over 3 lbs of jerky in a matter of hours. Yeah...I LOVE IT!

Exactly what I was looking for

This is what we were looking for. With the fan it dries so much faster than the older styles. We also purchased some extra trays to do more at one time. The only thing I can see to improve would be an on/off switch on the lid with the heat controls. Don't like having to unplug from the wall to check the progress of the food.

Makes good Jerky

Very good Jerky maker. Trays are hard to clean but there's no getting around that with any dehydrator. I noticed that the meat closest to the motor dries quicker than the ones at the bottom so you will have to rotate the trays.

The motor on the top is a better design than the models with the motor on the bottom. That way there will be no liquid dripping into the motor and destroying it.
Runs very quiet.
