Pros & Cons

Pros

This dehydrator is a fantastic first-time-user machine. My sister has an earlier, more basic model and i'm glad i stepped up when making this purchase. I'm loving it.

Nesco fd-61 operates quietly, and the trays are well-deigned for drying and storage. Multiple temps settings make it very versitile.

It is very easy clean-up since the blower is top-mounted instead of at the bottom. I recommend ordering extra screen savers this helps with easy clean up.

I like the fact that it is expandable, and availability of extra trays. I like that it has the hole in the middle because it helps the air circulate.

No problems whatsoever. Still a great product & use often. This particular brand works very well and i will continue to purchase them.



Cons

Nesco fd-61 is a poorly designed piece of garbage. The dehydrator overheated to the point that it melted the plastic trays.

    And if youre even mildy handy you can squeeze extra life out of many of these by replacing the thermal fuse which is a common problem for not working after a few years


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Amazon sells these for cheap so you might consider fixability a selling point


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    My old one had the blower at the bottom so it was always full of seeds andor sticky juices which were very hard to clean up


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    If you are a novice at dehydrating
