Key Features

FeatureDescriptionFunctionalityDehydrates a variety of foods, including fruits (apple slices, banana chips), vegetables (sun-dried tomatoes), herbs, meats (jerky), and other snacks.CapacityTypically features 5 Stackable Trays, providing ample space to dry a decent batch of food simultaneously. The trays are often removable for cleaning.Temperature ControlIncludes an Adjustable Thermostat to set the optimal drying temperature, often ranging from $40^\circ \text{C}$ to $75^\circ \text{C}$ ($104^\circ \text{F}$ to $167^\circ \text{F}$). This allows you to choose the perfect setting for different food types.AirflowUses a motor and small fan to circulate warm air, ensuring relatively even heat distribution for consistent drying results across all layers.Nutrient PreservationThe low and controlled drying temperatures help to retain up to 97% of the food's nutritional value, including vitamins, minerals, and flavor.PowerThe typical power consumption is around $240 \text{ W}$, making it an energy-efficient choice for long drying cycles.DesignFeatures a multi-layer, stackable design with PP (Polypropylene) body and trays (often in white and green, matching the "Multicolor" description), and sometimes a clear viewing window to monitor the drying process.OperationUser-friendly operation with a simple ON/OFF switch and a dial or button for temperature control.

This food dehydrator is a great tool for making all-natural, homemade, preservative-free snacks and for preserving garden harvests.
