NESCO FD-60, Snackmaster Express Food Dehydrator, White, 500 watts

Volví a comprar este producto después de 8años, es mi herramienta de trabajo de gran batalla, es fácil de usar y limpiar, además que se pueden comprar charolas extras. Ahora mi nuevo deshidratador consta de 10 charolas.

I have had four dehydrators over my long life. Homemade ones and store-bought ones. This is my favourite of them all. The advantages in this machine begin with the countertop size. I can dry a pile of produce in a small space. Another is that it is easy to clean. Trays wash right up. Save yourself a little time cleaning trays with sticky and drippy products like jerky. They can be soaked in a sink or put in top rack of the dishwasher for a few minutes. I do not let them run a full cycle but just let them wash for a few minutes to clean then remove them. A temperature setting on a dehydrator is critical. I have had other dehydrators without temp control and the outcome is not as consistent. Temp control allows the best temperature for given items. The air circulation in the dehydrator is excellent, as are the stacking trays. We use this dehydrator to dry bushels of apples. We wash, quarter, core and place thin slices in a bowl with a little salt or lemon water to keep from going brown. Then dehydrate, skin and all. Great snacks. Last year's bottled fruit makes wonderful fruit leather. Herbs are quick and easy. Sliced tomatoes, salted lightly, make a great travel snack. There is lots of info online for dehydrating methods and ideas. You'll love it. I highly recommend this item.

So easy to use, works excellant, is a discribed and a huge value at this price! I've already made 4lbs of jerky, 2lbs beef and 2lbs Turkey. Super fast making them and taste better then store bought. gave my wife some and she thought I bought it at the store, when I told her I made it in a couple of hours, (times will vary depending on your location) she was amazed. Shared some with friends and they've asked me to make them some. To start with I used their recommended seasoning which makes it easy, my next batch I'm going to try some seasoning I really like. Get one today! You wont regret it!

Hi just had this unit for about a day and a half and in that time I have dried 4 trays of fruit ( grapefruit slices, apples, bananas) and now on the next batch of 4 trays ( bananas, mangos, tomatoes) and will do pineapple next. My fruit has been drying in about 6 hours ( 8 hours for the grapefruit which I sprinkled with a bit of sugar). I also purchased a set of the non stick liners). I hope this unit last for a long time ;-) Update: I dropped the top of my dehydrator and the thermostat only worked for 145-165f, otherwise it just blew cold air. I contacted Nesco and they told me to check it with a meat thermometer and I did it was reading at only 80f. A replacement top was $32 plus s&h. I was about to purchase another non nesco dehydrator and decided to take the top apart since I had nothing to lose. I unscrewed the handle and the knob that turns to set the temp came right off. I did not see any loose wires and wondered if the knob could have gotten jarred when I dropped it. I tapped the metal thing that holds the knob on with a screw driver since maybe a tap would unjar it. I replaced the knob and wiggled it around then replaced the handle. As soon as I plugged it in it blew warm air at the low settings! I then tested the temp with my meat thermometer and it was about 10-15 degrees hotter than the dial at the low settings. I popped off the temp knob using a butter knife and replaced it. Then it read correctly!!!!!!!!!! All temps were normal again. I'm so happy it's working. I would hate to think "thermostat" problems that cause people to replace their unit or buy a new top might be simply due to a knob not setting correctly.
