Review: Great little dehydrator! - I bought this dehydrator as a test run to see if I would actually use it before I invest in a larger dehydrator. So far, I really like this little machine! To date, I have dehydrated raspberries, bananas, and sweet peppers. I did have to rotate the trays, but that isn't a huge issue for me. Does not take up a lot of counter space. No temperature control. Does have on/off switch and it is QUIET!! Love that. To keep my raspberries from falling through the trays, I cut parchment paper to fit, cut out the center and hole-punched it. Works great and much easier clean up! I have only used this 3 times but it has performed well.
Review: ... heat controller that stopped working which rendered the unit useless. The Deni is simplicity itself - My former dehydrator had a digital heat controller that stopped working which rendered the unit useless. The Deni is simplicity itself, It has an on off switch a heater and the quietest fan, so quiet in fact that the only way you know its working is by feeling the air coming out. Using it in the house I measured the temperature by using a digital probe it read 150 degrees. It has no way of controlling the internal temperature so if you must have a specific temperature you will have to get a dehydrator with a thermostat. For me it does a fine job and is very easy to clean as I just throw the trays into the top tray of my dishwasher.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: does this heat the food? or does it just dehydrate? I want to know if it will cook the  meat or if i put in already cooked meat?**
A: The Dehydrator temperature of the air is just right enough to dry the food but not cook it. Cooking the meat is matter of preference but I personally prefer to do proper marination and dehydrating... short answer, cooking is not necessary.

**Q: Does it have an adjustable drying temperature.  If not, what temperature is maintained during operation?**
A: The maintained temperature during operation is at approx 155-165°F.

**Q: is this bpa free?**
A: It is BPA free.Thanks!

**Q: Is there any way to turn down the temperature?**
A: Not that I have found.  The unit has only an on/off switch.  I haven't had any problem with the temperature.  I just check periodically to see how the drying is going.  It has worked well for us so far.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Decent little dehydrator
*by T***A on September 22, 2014*

Before I review the actual product, I must let everyone know that according to the BBB the maker of Deni products is no longer in business. Therefore, if you have malfunctions, breakage, etc. you will be out of luck unless the seller is willing to work with you. That said, here is my review: PROS: It's compact size is great for persons with small kitchens and limited work space. It is silent. The fan makes little to no noise. I had to hold it to feel the motor running. I have been drying fruit with it, and it drys them within 12 hours or less depending on the type and size. Light weight and easy to clean. CONS: The space between trays is only 1 inch. Therefore, whatever you dry must be sliced accordingly unless you only want to use one tray at a time with the lid, since the lid is taller and angled. There is no temperature control. So far this hasn't been an issue for me. I've just been continually checking my food every few hours and rotating the product as it drys. The white plastic will stain. I am currently drying tomatoes and there ain't no way those trays (including the exterior parts) are ever gonna be white again. It does worry me that the maker is out of business, but since I got this one discounted I won't be out too much money. So far I've been running it for almost 3 days straight with only brief off times. While the plastic does get warm it hasn't warped yet. So far so good.
