Our take on the 5-Tray Food Dehydrator Machine

The AsterOutdoor 5-Tray Food Dehydrator is a 300W countertop unit with five BPA-free plastic trays, each holding up to 1.7 lbs. It offers adjustable heat from 95 to 158°F, a timer running from 30 minutes to 48 hours, and 360° hot air circulation for even drying. Overheat protection, automatic cooling and automatic shutdown add safety for long unattended runs. It suits beginners and small households drying fruit, vegetables, jerky, herbs and yogurt; against larger rivals it trades capacity and a digital display for a simple, compact design.
