This convenient appliance features spacious drawers, electronically controlled temperature settings, and a horizontal airflow system, ensuring even drying without the need for preservatives. It's the perfect choice for those looking to enjoy wholesome, homemade snacks.

Key Features

  • Convenient Food Dehydrator: This Sunbeam machine features an LCD with an auto-off countdown timer, so you know how much time remains in the machine while drying foods. This unit allows you to dehydrate food completely by setting it for up to 19.5 hours in 30-minute intervals.

  • Even Drying: Shelf rotation is not necessary with this appliance. This machine keeps the temperature consistent throughout each shelf because of its horizontal airflow so that various types of food placed within are evenly dehydrated.
  • Safe and User-Friendly: With adjustable shelf height and six removable BPA-free drying racks, you can separate your food and dry it without having to put everything on the same rack. It also has a fine food mesh tray and a fruit roll tray.
  • Package Inclusions: The box includes the Sunbeam Food Lab Electronic Dehydrator, 6x Drying Racks, and 1x Fine Food Mesh Tray.

Will this dehydrate meals? For example vegetarian pasta sauce (no oil)?

Asked by: Sanji
Thanks for your question. You won't be able to dehydrate combined meals, as times are affected by factors such as contents and wetness. You can dehydrate individual parts of a cooked meal, before combining. There is no specific setting for this on the unit, so this may be trial and error with a non-chunky sauce. Hope this helps! ^CO

Will this safely dehydrate meat? Wanting to make some epic treats for my puppy.

Asked by: Eloise
Great question Eloise! Yes, it can be used for unprocessed meat cuts, however, you will need to ensure the specific recipe is appropriate for your puppy, as not all food will be suitable. We would also advise following specific recipes that require the use of a dehydrator, to ensure it is done safely. Hope this helps! ^CO

should the dehydrator exterior become hot?

Asked by: Cheryl
Thanks for your question Cheryl. We can confirm yes, the exterior of the Dehydrator does tend to get heated. We recommend, do not move or cover the dehydrator while in operation. Use your dehydrator well away from walls, curtains and cupboards. Trust this helps!
