I just got my Excalibur stainless steel dehydrator with stainless steel trays. I do not feel comfortable with using plastic to cook, which is another reason I got rid of my microwave a few years ago.. I think more raw, natural, the better -I ordered this directly from Excalibur, not Amazon, to get the 10 year warranty. I researched many types of dehydrators. I've never had one, but eat mostly vegan, and decided that this was the next step to more alkaline food, tasty healthy treats, saving the planet from packaging, etc...I ordered this Monday 5.6.13, and it was delivered today 5.8.13!!! So far the service is excellent!!Out of the box, I read the instructions, read the cookbooks, and put the door handles on, and plugged it in!! It's been "going" all day! I've made banana, apple, potato, sweet potato, spinach, cilantro, green onions, and they are almost all done (6 + hrs later) . . .I am so glad I got the 9 tray, as many of the other writers suggested, since 1 potato ( very thinly sliced) took 3 trays alone!! Once things shrink, they can be moved to make more space, but initially, the items take up a full tray. One apple too 2 trays.. until it started to shrink.This product is well made, and I am so happy I spent the "big" bucks, and got the stainless steel trays... It's so simple and easy! I can't wait for holiday season, to give gifts to people.So, it's ready to go, out of the box, basically... fits on the counter nicely - and doesn't make much noise at all! It's been working hard all day and I highly recommend this to anyone wanting a dehydrator. This and my Vitamix are my 2 favorite and most expensive items in my kitchen. I think they are both made to last a life time, and the companies have excellent customer service.So far so good!

I read all about the different dehydrators and reviews of so many models. And since most of the reviews were good no matter what unit it was, I could not figure out which one to buy....then found a user group who wrote a detailed review of pros and cons of different units and the strengths and weaknesses etc. it became very obvious that this style and brand of dehydrator WITH A TIMER is the only way to go. It works so well. i also bought the "Pack of 9 Premium 14" x 14" Non-Stick Dehydrator Sheets- For Excalibur". you need these sheets for lots of reasons, you will see once you get going.I have had it for 3 days and have used it for kale, strawberries, apples, pears, bananas, pears, sprouted sunflower seeds pumpkins seeds and almonds. Everything comes out fantastic. Rotate the trays and try different temps too. But start some of the fruits out on the sheets and once they are slightly dry peel them of the sheets and put directly onto the racks liners and they will dry faster. keep a sheeted tray in the bottom position and you will make a little less mess, but its no big deal to clean if some stuff collects in the bottom anyway. a tip...if you have a bowl of mixed stuff you dehydrated at different temps like seeds at 105 and fruit at 135 and you want to "freshen it up a bit" (so your friends can taste it at its best), just dump a nice pile of the whole mixture on a sheeted tray an hour before they arrive, and run it at like 100-105 before serving.

I personally don't do a whole lot of drying of foods, so the 5 tray is more than adequate for my needs. Most people like the 9 tray though, that's totally up to you. Both are basically the same size, but the 9 tray is much higher.The unit arrived in one day. Thank you Amazon for being awesome like always. This thing is fantastic. It has a self-timer and a heat control that goes up to about 155 deg F. Which is more than adequate. Depending on what you're drying too that is. I usually do "biltong" which is a South African version of beef jerky, but far far far far far better. Once you've had proper biltong, you won't want to eat jerky any longer. Jerky is way too dry and tough and hard to chew and your jaw is hurting after a few pieces. Biltong has different spices and is really tasty and does not need to be dried that long like jerky. It's up to you and your taste.This machine is very nice. It is NOT loud. I have it on while watching a movie and it runs but it's not even given a thought. The aroma in the house is somewhat nice though.I have made batches of biltong already and they came out so much better than I could have ever hoped. It's all in the recipe and the preparation. The drying piece is the last piece of it. The recipe is super simple and let your meat marinate for at least 4-8 hours, longer if you wish. AS you play around with the recipe, you'll learn what you like best. Then the Excalibur takes care of the drying.It's great on other foods too, which i have not played around with yet at all. I have only used it for making biltong, thus far. I will continue to experiment. Highly recommended product.
