NescoMS-2-6 Round Mesh 15 1/2" Clean-A- Screens Fits Food Dehydrators 2 Pack

Not the exact size I needed for my machine

I recently bought my first Nesco dehydrator and went about drying everything I could find (laughing). Since I have a small herb garden on my patio, I began with basil, thyme, sage, etc. These wonderful mesh sheets kept those small items perfectly while drying. Nothing fell through the mesh or the tray. Since I cut the basil leaves either in half or thirds to help dry, I had small pieces. The finger holes on either side of these mesh trays help you twist the tray to release anything stuck on it during drying and also helps to direct the dried product into a bowl so that you can process it for final storage.I wash things like this by hand even when they can go in the dishwasher because I honestly don't find it to be a hardship. They wash beautifully and easily. I generally use a soft, round brush to hand wash things and it is perfect for these. Nothing remains stuck in the mesh at all. Just last week, I dried delicious Ranier cherries to rehydrate and add to smoothies in the winter. I cut each pitted cherry in half to speed up drying and even with natural juice, I was able to loosen each cherry and the screen washed clean in an instant.I bought enough sets to use on each tray in my Nesco for larger drying loads and I find these to be economical and a necessity. I don't want to be unprepared for whatever I dry. These are very nice, and again, so very easy to keep clean.

easy to use, just place on your try easy to clean, just wipe clean Keeps trays from staining and food sticking making dehydrating easier

They fit the Nesco 1000. I will be needing more of these. Now to find more trays. Keep stacking 🤩

We have a Nesco Gardenmaster model FD1010 dehydrator and have thirteen trays and only eight mesh screens, which really means we were only using eight trays. Using the other five trays without screens was so annoyingly difficult to remove the dried tomatoes etc. that we didn't use them. We ordered 3 sets of the MS-2(two screens per set) to remedy this non-use problem. The new screens are not the same as the ones we have. The new ones look as if they were cookie-cutter hot-pressed stamped from a sheet of plastic, and only three of the six screens had all the mesh openings completely open. The other three had maybe twenty-five per cent of the openings closed with a residual very thin plastic film on the back side of the screen, as if the press didn't press deeply enough to clear all the openings. These closed off openings are around each of eight equally spaced half inch solid plastic circles that are half way from the big opening in the screen center and the outside circumference. This is going to change the air flow and result in non-uniform drying of anything on the these screens and in relation to the other screen's drying time. I'm not going to bother with returning these, and will live with the three good ones. I did try using an orbital sander on the back side to see if I could remove enough of the back that would clear the openings but no luck.7-27-12 - I have been using the three screens, along with the older original mesh screens, for a week now. I have dried 2,485 Juliet tomatoes and a number of beefsteak size tomatoes. It is much, much easier to remove the dried fruit from the three new screens than from the original screens. The older screens require bending the screen and popping the pieces off, but the fruit practically slides off with a gentle push with the new ones. Too bad about the closed off holes in the other three screens out of the six.

I like how easy they are to clean and they fit my dehydrator perfectly. I highly recommend getting these if you are considering. They make clean up of the actual trays a lot easier. The food gets stuck on these instead of the trays. I make treats for my pups and these work out great. I am so happy I bought these and regret not doing so sooner.

These are just fine for what their purpose is. My only problem is that they are too large for my Nesco Jerky Express dehydrator. I assumed that all Nesco dehydrators had the same circumference-I was wrong. The solution was simple, I took a pair of scissors and trimmed it down by about a half inch and it fits fine, it just doesn't have that factory finished look to it. It seems like a great product for dehydrating smaller cuts of veggies but buyer beware these are about 13.5 inches wide, measure your dehydrator racks beforehand.

We own the Nesco Garden Master and these screens are the perfect addition to our unit. If you are going to be putting fruit on your trays to dehydrate you are going to want to get these!! I used the trays without them first before realizing how badly the food sticks...our sinks weren't big enough to soak the trays themselves so that left me with a lot of scrubbing. Now that I use these, the clean up is easy and simple. They are very pliable and fit in the sink no problem. The fruit comes up off the screen very easily and if you don't feel like washing them...they are top shelf dish washer safe! A must have product for your dehydrator!!

Cumple con las expectativas

I bought several sets of these, and like them a lot. They have a slightly parabolic shape, which keeps little pieces of produce, such as green peas, from going down through the bigger holes closer to the outside of the tray. The middle of the tree, around the hub, is not raised, so there is a tendency to lose food out through there, especially once the foods dry and you’re trying to empty the tray. That’s definitely a small point of design that could vastly improve the performance of these things.That being said, they’re not nearly as good as the original mesh that came with the machine, that fits exactly the entire contour of the tray. I’ve never lost a morsel of food through that original screen, and would prefer that to these manyfold, but these are not bad in performance.Given the choice, if I could get the originals, I get them every time hands down. But in the absence of those, this is actually doing a pretty fair job. :). And I’ve overcome the problem entirely by leaving the screen In the tray, and lifting the entire tray up and slipping it into a clear foodgrade plastic bag entirely, to empty it. Nothing gets lost unto the work surface that way, and it’s an easy matter of simply pouring the dried produce into its intended Storage container.

I will reorder great

These screens fit my Nesco Gardenmaster (1040 model I think) perfectly. I liked the one it came with, so wanted more. They work great. I've used them several with tomatoes, oranges, and apples so far. The yellow tomatoes have left a light yellow stain that hasn't come off with the usual light cleaning. Not a problem for me.

It’s a good drier
