Pros

It's a bit of a chore to clean the dehydrator, but it's well worth it. Trays are a little flimsy but for what i'm using it for is okay. There were only a couple crumbs on a tray and finger prints on the inside of the door.

Noise level is acceptable, about the same as running a stove extractor fan on low. Huge though, storing it will be a challenge and it is kind of loud.

Bought this half price for $116 from the amazon warehouse. Used, rated as 'acceptable' it's now 100% in my books and i'm happy i took a chance buying used and scored a great deal.

The machine no longer heats up (another known problem) and ruined a batch of jerky that i was making. It's amazing how expensive this dehydrator is considering what it's made out of. Junk', 'cheap','sneaky', 'disingenuous' are all words i would use to...  Read More

    Great dehydrator however the door rattles when in use and it’s quite loud when operating

    Much more secure and doesnt accidentally fall off its plastic but the plastic feels very rugged and able to withstand years of heat drying without cracking because excalibur is such a popular and established brand it is very easy to get replacement partsdont love lets be honest its pretty ugly
