"Fantastic for the kitchen garden a must purchase" star star star star star I was wandering through the catalogue and came across this item. In past times I have wasted so many home grown fruits simply through having them in the fridge and not eating them as quick as i should. I have not had so much fun since I was a child, its quick to load I have dried so many different kinds of fruit and the taste is fantastic, I travel to work each morning enjoying all my freshly dried produce for my breakfast it saves time as well when you are busy " eat as you go" it is the best product i have purchased in a long time, and I strongly recomend it to any one " NO MORE WASTE"
"Brilliant!!" star star star star star This is absolutely brilliant! So easy to use. I am currently drying apples as fast as I can pick and slice them. Yet to try other foods because of the huge apple crop but will, doubtless, be experimenting before long.
"best thing since sliced bread - in fact better than!" star star star star star I dry apple rings, banana strips, grapes, tomatoes, plums (not too successful), wild mushrooms (chanterelles and ceps), pears, in fact almost any fruit or vegetables that have overproduced. To stop apple rings, pears and bananas discolour dip in either salty or acidulated water. Sun dried tomatoes with no sun, and if you dry them to a crisp you can put them in a coffee grinder and get tomato powder. dried apple can be chopped and added to almost any recipe that requires dried fruit. I wouldn't be without my food dehydrator nad I wholeheartedly recommend it to all.
"Wonderful" star star star star star I've had this dehydrator for several weeks now and it is wonderful. It makes delcious apple rings (try sprinkling them with cinnamon when you put them on the racks), excellent banana chips and I'm very pleased with my dried kiwi slices. As the season moves along I'll use it to dry tomatoes, chillies and herbs too and have no doubt it will do a sterling job. I was concerned about the sturdiness of the trays after reading some of the reviews but I needn't have worried. They're fine. My only complaint is too many things I want to dehydrate, too little time!
"brilliant" star star star star star Wish I had one of these years ago. I have dried chillis, parsley (yes still growing in my garden!) rosemary, onion rings, apple, pineapple, mango, papaya and various other fruits, still have to master bananas though I can't seem to get them right.
