I bought this dehydrator there 15 days and I'm not disappointed with my purchase. While this model has some seem basic but it has a thermostat adjustment of temperature which is rare in these models! (35 to 70 degrees in 7 steps) Easy handling and cleaning it is bit noisy: in a room door closed it is not audible in the adjoining room. The durations of drying dieters are pretty close to reality D The manual is succinct but sufficient. Perfect and fast shipping packaging acheminenet (3 days)
