Snackmaster Express Food Dehydrator and Jerky Maker, White 4.7 5 431 536
Extremely Satisfied I bought this dehydrator a couple of weeks ago. Wal-Mart was definitely best in price. I was an "oven drying"man for more than 30 years...I can't believe I wasted all that time in the oven.This machine was perfect for my jerky. Extremely even drying over all the racks without rotating, and dried my jerky in just 4 hours...very quietly, I might add. I dried every fruit from bananas to peaches, pears, apples, mango, pineapple, strawberries - that takes about 12 hours, which, if you are a dehydrator junkie is very quick.The most useful feature of this product is the temperature control, eliminating harmful bacteria in your meats, yet drying fruits without "cooking" them. An additional plus, is that the (quiet) motor is top-mounted, so any drippings go on a simple plastic easy-to-clean tray at the bottom instead of in your fan unit.I just bought 8 additional racks to increase my capacity because friends and family are inundating me with orders. That's over 20 square feet of drying surface. Everyone will be getting jerky for Christmas! I only wish Wal Mart sold the LT-2W drying racks as well. Additional racks can be purchased for $9.99 per pair if you Google it right. 10/16/2009
Makes delicious snacks! I've been looking for a dehydrator for awhile now to make fruit roll-ups and dehydrate apples and other fruits. So far this has been an excellent product. It dries fruit evenly and the fruit roll-ups are delicious! One feature it lacks, but would be incredibly helpful, is a timer. I couldn't make it home one night in time to check on my fruit, so I had to leave it running.The dehydrator is also pretty quiet and light weight. I'd recommend this for novice dehydrators like myself. 05/17/2009
First Time to use Dehydrator This was to be my first food dehydrator purchase. I got this model after researching dehydrators via the Internet. This particular brand and model seemed to be well liked by other customers.I am inclined to agree. The unit is durable and has several heat settings. I have dried peppers, apples, bananas, and peaches. I have also made beef jerky two times. All has come out well.I think for the price paid this unit is a very good deal. The only thing I did not care for is that it only came with four trays. I purchased two extra trays on EBay and now I am as happy as a clam with this dehydrator. Hmm clams…nah don’t think I will dry any of them. LOL! 08/11/2008
