Pros & Cons
Pros
Stainless steel body is extremely sturdy, smooth and perfectly finished. If you have thoughts about doing some kind of jerky or cookie business, this is about the most compact kitchen you could imagine.
This dehydrates fruit really fast! It dries everything very evenly as it has a fan at the back that circulates air across each of the trays.
Comes with tray liner for making fruit bark which my kids have really enjoyed making with me. The jerky is delicious! Also comes with a guide and small recipe book.
Cons
Customer service from nutrichef is non existent. It’s been “escalated” several times and still nothing. Very disappointed. Bought this and was sooo excited to start dehydrating my goods and what a disappointment.
Highlights
Quality
I was particularly pleased with the quality of the glass door.
Very happy with the purchase considering getting the larger version for next season so i can do even larger batches at a time.
I set the temp and time like i always do, but with the higher wattage that setting actually turned mymushrooms to ash.
I love the size and ease of cleaningi don't like the recipie book i think it could be better and times need to be adjusted.
Shipping
First, it came very well packaged, the retail box came inside it's own shipping carton, not an amazon box.
Packaging/appearance
Product is very durable, packaging made sure that everything was in great condition when we got it.
Works well, good packaging, high quality product!
Competitiveness
Will be purchasing from nutrichef in the future for sure.
