Received one of these as a gift and have used twice now, doing multiple batches of beef jerky on each use. This product is amazing in that you can make decent jerky in about two hours for the slightly moist type, and in about 4 and a half hours you can have about totally dry jerky the kind you can snap off a piece with your hand. I was amazed about how fast you can make beef jerky with this thing, I was under the false impression that it would at least take overnight not with this thing! I am now looking to expand its capacity of trays, comes with 5 but you can expand to 14 total...

The beef jerky preparation process IS like work, so don't think it is an easy process. There is a reason that the stores get so much money for jerky, but if you are a jerky lover and don't mind some work this could be just the ticket for you! Pay close attention to all the food preparation handling instructions and proper food safety instructions and you will have a great machine for many years.

Tip when making jerky, I learned when making some "pepper" type recently, the drier the jerky, the stronger the pepper flavor, doing the pepper flavor only two hours had much less of a bite. So, it seems the drier the stronger at least on the pepper flavor type enjoy. (Note: on our "pepper" process, we had already cut the pepper mix by half, with the original flavor... but with the 4.5 hour dry time, it was still too peppery for me, wife loved it!)

This is a great item. I use it all the time. We have a small apt. and not alot of storage space. Using this lets me make things small and they take very little space to store. I didn't know anything about dehydrating food before I bought this so I bought a book that will help you if you are just starting out. I learned a lot of do's and don'ts. The food taste sometimes even better when you eat it because it causes the the flavor to intensify. Yum!!! It is very much worth it. The one thing I myself had a problem with is that it doesn't have an on/off switch. I found the answer for that, I put one on the cord. Now I have no problem. :)

I love this product! I've made dried fruits and jerky. Very easy to use. Instructions and recipes come with it. Trays clean easily. Only thing that would be better is if there were an automatic shut off timer.
