Racks can be cleaned in the dishwasher (take trays out before the drying cycle to avoid the possibility of warping).Īlthough the Dehydrator is modular from 1 to 12 trays, the User’s Manual recommends that the unit not be operated with less than 4 trays in place. The dehydrator’s food contact surfaces are made of BPA-free ABS plastic. The exterior walls of the NESCO American Harvest FD-61WHC Snackmaster® Express Food Dehydrator trays are made of opaque ‘Vita-save®’ material that prevents light reaching and affecting the nutrient content of the food being dehydrated. This is a very affordable food dehydrator and useful appliance to have in your home, and the ‘All in one’ kit is a real bonus! This means that you can start using the full range of dehydration options from the get-go, from fruit roll-ups to dried fruit and vegetables, and dried herbs to jerky. The dehydrator is delivered with the ‘All in One’ kit, consisting of 5 jerky spice packs and 5 cure packs, a jerky gun with 3 tips, 2 Fruit Roll sheets, 2 Clean-A-Screen inserts and a user guide containing a recipe book.

The materials used in the dehydrator are BFA-free and the appliance is attractively styled and easy to use.

It has an adjustable thermostat for versatility, so that different foods can be dehydrated at the temperature that best suits them. The Snackmaster® Express has a top mounted fan to avoid the hazard of food or liquid falling into the fan housing, and it has the benefit of the patented Converga-Flow® drying system that creates horizontal, rather than vertical, airflows across each tray so that any mixing of flavors between racks is minimized.
